7/(b-36)=28/b
28b-1008=7b
21b=1008
b=48
a/72=28/b
a=72x28/48
a=42

Answer:

a=-3456

b=-21/36

Step-by-step explanation:

(7/b)-36=(28/b)

(7/b)-(28/b)=36

7-28=36b

-21=36b

-21/36=b

Since you found one variable substitute it in to find the other variable

28/b=a/72

28/(-21/36)=a/72

28 * (36/-21)=a/72

-48=a/72

72* -48 = a

a=-3456

a=-3456

b=-21/36

given triangle PQR with QR = 8, PQ = 6, and m p = 90 degrees, which of the following choices is used to determine m r
marishachu [46]

The value of the angle R in the right triangle PQR is sin⁻¹ 6 / 8

The situation forms a right angle triangle.

<h3>How to find an angle in a right triangle?</h3>

The angle R can be found as follows:

using trigonometric ratios,

sin R = opposite / hypotenuse

Therefore,

opposite sides = 6

hypotenuse = 8

sin R = 6 / 8

R = sin⁻¹ 6 / 8
