a^2+b^2=c^2
20^2+15^2=c^2
400+225=c^2
625=c^2
**square root both sides**
c=25

A scale measures weight to the nearest 0.1 pounds. Which is the most appropriate way to report weight using this scale?
Pani-rosa [81]
The question is kind of vague in my opinion.

the best measurement to report with the scale in my opinion would be tens of pounds. my reasoning is because the decimal place would still prove importance with numbers under one hundred. above one hundred pounds and the decimal place becomes kind of pointless. 

I hope I answered your question. though i'm sorry if i didn't

Use the laws of Sines and law of cosines to find missing dimensions​
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

A) ERROR

B) ∠C = 26°

Step-by-step explanation:

Houston, We have a problem!!! too much information

If we had a legit triangle, the law of sines would hold

19/sin138 = 8/sin20

  28.395 = 23.390

as this is NOT an equality, the triangle does not exist as described.

IF it did, we'd get different results depending on which set we used

∠F = 180 - 138 - 20 = 22°

Law of sines

19/sin138 = DE/sin22 ⇒ DE = 19sin22/sin138 = <u>10.63697...</u>

or

8/sin20 =  DE/sin22 ⇒ DE = 8sin22/sin20 = <u>8.762211...</u>

If we attempt to use Law of cosines

DE² = 19² + 8² - 2(19)(8)cos22 = <u>11.9639...</u>

so really none is correct because we attempt to use trig calculations to a non-triangle.

12) AC² = 15² + 19² - 2(15)(19)cos120

      AC = 29.51270...

29.51270 / sin120 = 15/sinC

C = arcsin(15sin120/29.51270) = 26.1142... <u>26°</u>

How would you explain triangle classifications in your own words?
balandron [24]

Answer:

A triangle has three sides, three vertices, and three angles. The sum of the three interior angles of a triangle is always 180°.

The sum of the length of two sides of a triangle is always greater than the length of the third side.
