The Law of Cosines features the 3 side lengths of a triangle, plus the measure of the angle opposite one of those sides.


We want angle x, which is opposite the side of length 39.


Then: a^2 = b^2 - 2ab cos C becomes 39^2 = 36^2 + 59^2 - 2(36)(59)cos x


or 1521 = 3481 + 1296 - 2(36)(59) cos x


Subtract (3481+1296) from both sides: 1521 - 4777 = -4248cos x

-3256 = -4248cos x

-3256

Then: cosx = --------------- = 0.766

-4248


Solving for x: x = arccos -0.766 = 0.698 radian, or 40 degrees (answer)

A father’s age now is three times the age that his son was 4 years ago. In
Mice21 [21]
Let ‘s’ be the son’s age 12 years ago.
Let ‘f’ be the father’s current age.

4 years ago, the son was:

s-4

So, his father is currently:

3(s-4)

=

3s-12

Therefore:

f = 3s-12

In twelve years, the son will be:

s+12

And the father will be:

f+12

This can also be written as:

3s-12+12 as the fathers younger age would be f = 3s+12

=

3s

So, we know that s+12 is half the fathers current age, meaning the father is currently 2(s+12) which is equivalent to 2s+24. Also, we know that the father is currently 3 times the sons age 12 years ago, so 3s (proven by the calculations we made above). Therefore, 2s+24=3s which means 24=s. We can then substitute this, and we will receive 24+12 = 36

Son’s current age: 36

We then substitute the son’s age 12 years ago into 2s+24 to give us the father’s age.

2(24)+24 = 72

Father’s current age: 72

If the 50th and 51st terms of an arithmetic sequence are 140 and 142, find the 1st term
morpeh [17]

Answer:

The first term is 42.

Step-by-step explanation:

The common difference is 142  - 140 = 2 so we have

50th term = a1 + 2(50 -1) = 140    where a1 is the first term

a1 + 98 = 140

a1 = 140 - 98 =  42.
