Pls. see attachment. 

We need to solve for the angles of the smaller triangle in order to solve for the angle of the larger triangle which would help us solve the missing measurement of a side.

Given:

51 degrees.

Cut the triangle into two equal sides and it forms a right triangle. All interior angles of a triangle sums up to 180 degrees.

180 – 51 – 90 = 39 degrees

39 degrees * 2 = 78 degrees.

Angle Q is 78 degrees.

In the bigger triangle, 4.3 is the hypotenuse. We need to solve for the measurement of the long leg which is the opposite of the 78 degree angle.

We will use the formula:

Sine theta = opposite / hypotenuse

Sin(78 deg) = opposite / 4.3

Sin(78 deg) * 4.3 = opposite

4.21 = opposite. This is also the height of the triangle.

 

Area of a triangle = ½ * base * height

A = ½ * 3units * 4.21units

A = 6.315 square units.

What is the solution to the equation 2 (x-3) ^2 =13 help help ASAP !
olganol [36]

Answer:

3+sqrt(13/2)

3-sqrt(13/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

2 (x-3) ^2 =13

Divide each side by 2

2/2 (x-3) ^2 =13/2

(x-3) ^2 =13/2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((x-3) ^2) =±sqrt(13/2)

x-3 = ±sqrt(13/2)

Add 3 to each side

x-3+3 = 3±sqrt(13/2)

x = 3±sqrt(13/2)

3x + y = -3
-2x + y = 7
Use elimination method
Subtract both equations
5x = -10, x = -2
Plug in -2 for x (any equation)
3(-2) + y = -3
-6 + y = -3
y = 3

Solution: x = -2, y = 3
Or as a coordinate: (-2, 3)

How do you the equation of the line that passes through point (-3,2) and is parallel to the line formed by the equation y = 4x +
hjlf

Answer:

y = 4x + 14

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 4x + 7 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 4

• Parallel lines have equal slopes , then

y = 4x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute (- 3, 2 ) into the partial equation

2 = - 12 + c ⇒ c = 2 + 12 = 14

y = 4x + 14 ← equation of parallel line
