In a right triangle ΔABC, the length of leg AC = 5 ft and the hypotenuse AB = 13 ft. Find the length of the angle bisector of an

Answer: the length of the angle bisector of angle ∠A is 6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram of the right angle triangle ABC is shown in the attached photo

Looking at triangle ABC,

cos θ = adjacent side/hypotenuse side

cos θ = 5/13 = 0.3846

θ = 67.38 degrees

The bisector of an angle divides it into two equal halves. The bisector is represented by line AD.

θ/2 = 67.38/2 = 33.69 degrees

Therefore,

Cos 33.69 = 5/AD

AD × Cos 33.69 = 5

AD = 5/Cos 33.69 = 5/0.832

AD = 6 ft

sesenic [268]

Answer:

The probability that the dogs are blue eyed and deaf is 13.02%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

P(Blue eyes) = 31%

P(Deaf) = 38%

P(Deaf | Blue eyes) = 42%

Formula for conditional probability:

P( A|B) = \displaystyle\frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}

Now, let A be the event where the dog is deaf and B be the the event where dog is blue eyed.

P( \text{ Deaf}|\text{Blue eyes}) = \displaystyle\frac{P( \text{Deaf} \cap \text{Blue eyes})}{P(\text{Blue eyes})}\\\\0.42 = \displaystyle\frac{P( \text{Deaf} \cap \text{Blue eyes})}{0.31}\\\\P( \text{Deaf} \cap \text{Blue eyes}) = 0.42\times 0.31 = 0.1302 = 13.02\%

Hence, the probability that the dogs are blue eyed and deaf is 13.02%.

Answer:

82.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the height is given below:

As we know that each right triangle contains the top angle of 20 degrees

So, the right angle & the bottom corner angle equivalent to

= 180 - 90 - 20

= 70 degrees

Now the height is

tangent = opposite leg ÷ adjacent leg

tan (70°) = height ÷ 30 cm

height = 30 cm × tan (70°)

= 82.4 cm

S=k/v(s)+1/v(s) in terms of v(s)
otez555 [7]

Answer:

            k + 1

v(s) = -------------

                S

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the equation S=k/v(s)+1/v(s) for v(s).

To do this, combine the two terms on the right side, which is easily possible becuse they have the same denominator:  v(s):

        k + 1

S = ------------

         v(s)

Now interchange S and v(s), obtaining:

            k + 1

v(s) = -------------

                S
