12. For triangle MNP shown, find the value of x
amm1812

Answer:

x=36\°\\\angle P=71 \°,\angle N=73 \°,\angle M=36 \°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The triangle is shown below.

We know that the sum of all interior angles of a triangle is equal to 180°.

Therefore,

\angle M+\angle N+\angle P=180 \°\\\\x+2x+1+2x-1=180\°\\\\5x=180\°\\\\x=\frac{180}{5}\\\\x=36\°

Now, plugging the value of 'x' in each angle measure and determining its values. We get:

\angle M=x=36\°\\\angle P=2x-1=2(36)-1=72-1=71\°\\\angle N=2x+1=2(36)+1=72+1=73\°

Therefore, the value of 'x' is 36° and the measure of the three angles are 36°, 71° and 73°.

a dog searching for a bone walks 3.5 m southeast, then 8.2 m at an angle 30 degrees north of east. Find the magnitude of the dog
Anton [14]

Answer:

Step 1: Firstly, we draw both of the axes.

Step 2: We then draw a vector of length 3.5 m (theoretical) along the (-x) axis.  

Step 3: Next, we draw a vector of length 8.2 m from the endpoint towards to top, at an angle of 60° from that point (N.B: 90-30, since it is required to make a 30°∠ with the current vertical; eventually the triangle being formed will be 90° minus the 30°.) Most importantly, the 8.2 m vector should be drawn in such a way so that it is higher than the starting point of the 3.5 m vector.  )

Step 4: Lastly, we draw a 15 m vector from the endpoint of the 8.2 m vector, running above the original vector, and to the left. This one should be drawn on the left side, and must be situated far enough.

∴ Triangle 1 () is of angles 30°, 60° and 90°;

On solving for the vertical side (the slope similar to the 3.5 vector), we get

(8.2/2) m = 4.1 m

Next, we solve for the opposite side via 4.1 × √3= 7.1 m

Moving on to Triangle 2 (),

top side = (15 - 7.1) m = 7.9 m

similarly, right side = (4.1 - 3.5) m = 0.6 m

∴ last side = resultant displacement:

⇒  + (0.6)² = 7.9 m

and, direction of displacement = arcTan(y/x)

= arcTan(0.6/7.9)

= 4.3° north of west

Note: I would appreciate if you give 5 stars, Thank you, and Brainliest
