Use triangle ABC drawn below & only the sides labeled. Find the side of length AB in terms of side a, side b & angle C o

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

$AB = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2-2abCos\ C}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The above triangle

Required

Solve for AB in terms of a, b and angle C

Considering right angled triangle BOC where O is the point between b-x and x

From BOC, we have that:

$Sin\ C = \frac{h}{a}$

Make h the subject:

$h = aSin\ C$

Also, in BOC (Using Pythagoras)

$a^2 = h^2 + x^2$

Make $x^2$ the subject

$x^2 = a^2 - h^2$

Substitute $aSin\ C$ for h

$x^2 = a^2 - h^2$ becomes

$x^2 = a^2 - (aSin\ C)^2$

$x^2 = a^2 - a^2Sin^2\ C$

Factorize

$x^2 = a^2 (1 - Sin^2\ C)$

In trigonometry:

$Cos^2C = 1-Sin^2C$

So, we have that:

$x^2 = a^2 Cos^2\ C$

Take square roots of both sides

$x= aCos\ C$

In triangle BOA, applying Pythagoras theorem, we have that:

$AB^2 = h^2 + (b-x)^2$

Open bracket

$AB^2 = h^2 + b^2-2bx+x^2$

Substitute $x= aCos\ C$ and $h = aSin\ C$ in $AB^2 = h^2 + b^2-2bx+x^2$

$AB^2 = h^2 + b^2-2bx+x^2$

$AB^2 = (aSin\ C)^2 + b^2-2b(aCos\ C)+(aCos\ C)^2$

Open Bracket

$AB^2 = a^2Sin^2\ C + b^2-2abCos\ C+a^2Cos^2\ C$

Reorder

$AB^2 = a^2Sin^2\ C +a^2Cos^2\ C + b^2-2abCos\ C$

Factorize:

$AB^2 = a^2(Sin^2\ C +Cos^2\ C) + b^2-2abCos\ C$

In trigonometry:

$Sin^2C + Cos^2 = 1$

So, we have that:

$AB^2 = a^2 * 1 + b^2-2abCos\ C$

$AB^2 = a^2 + b^2-2abCos\ C$

Take square roots of both sides

$AB = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2-2abCos\ C}$

The number of laps Katie ran was 2:3.If Louis ran 4 miles, how far did katie run?

agasfer [191]

Answer ran 2 3/4 miles in 1/3 of an hour

2 3/4 miles =11/4 miles in 1/3 of hour

11/4 miles divided by 1/3 hr

11/4 ÷ 1/3

11/4 * 3/1 =33/4 =8 1/4 miles in 1 hr

in a marathon race (42.195 km), the winner’s time is 2 hours, 13 minutes, and 9 seconds, while the second-place time is 2 hours,

algol [13]

in a marathon race (42.195 km), the winner’s time is 2 hours, 13 minutes, and 9 seconds, while the second-place time is 2 hours, 26 minutes, and 6 seconds . The distance is 2.664 km.

D = distance of marathon = 42.195 km = 42195 m

tw = time taken by winner = 2 h 17 min = 2 (60) + 17 = 137 min = 137 (60) = 8220 sec

Vw = speed of winner

speed of winner is given as

Vw = D /tw = 42195/8220

ts = time taken by second place = 2 h 26 min 14 sec = 2 (60)(60) + (26)(60) + 14 = 8774 s

Vs = speed of second place

speed of second place is given as

Vs = D /ts = 42195/8774

distance of the second place holder from the finish line is given as

D' = Vs (ts - tw)

D' = (42195/8774 )(8774 - 8220)

D' = 2664.24 m

D'= 2.664 km

What is the explicit rule for the sequence? −3, 0,3,6,9,... Enter your answer in the box.

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

aₙ = 3n - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sequence:

−3, 0,3,6,9,...

This is AP with:

The first tern a₁ = - 3
Common difference d = 3

The rule for the nth term of the sequence is:

aₙ = a₁ + (n - 1)d

Substitute values:

aₙ = -3 + (n - 1)(3) =
-3 + 3n - 3 =
3n - 6
