The correct question is
The hypotenuse and one of the legs of a right triangle form an angle that has a cosine of √<span>2/2 . 
What is the measure of the angle? 

Let
</span>∅--------> the angle
cos ∅=√2/2<span>
cos </span>∅=[distance of one of the leg/hypotenuse]
[distance of one of the leg/hypotenuse]=√2/2

<span>I could say that
</span>distance of one of the leg=√2
and 
hypotenuse=2
so
<span>applying the Pythagorean theorem
</span>c=hypotenuse=2
a=√2
b=?
c²=a²+b²-------> b²=c²-a²------> b²=2²-(√2)²-----> b²=2-----> b=√2

therefore
if a=b
then 
the angle ∅=45°

the answer is the option
<span>b.45 degrees</span>

The tangent line to y= f(x) at (4,-6) passes through the point (10,9) Compute the following, f(4) and f'(4)
Anni [7]
The solution to your problem is as follows:

The tangent line passes through (4,-6), so x = 4 when y = -6 

=> f(4) = -6 

The tangent line will have a constant gradient. 

gradient is m = (-6 - 9)/(4 - 10) => 5/2

Equation is y - 9 = (5/2)(x - 10) 

=> y - 9 = (5/2)(x-10) 

<span>i.e. y = (5/2)(x-10) + 9 
</span>      y = (5/2)x - 25 + 9 =   y = (5/2)x - 16

Now, f '(x) = dy/dx = 5/2

so, f '(4) = 5/2....i.e. gradient is 5/2 whatever the value of x. 


I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.

Solve the following equation using the completing the square method:<br> x2+8x=3
Kipish [7]

Answer:

x= plus or minus square root of 19 -4

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2+8x ___=3

take half of your b term (8) and then multiply by two and add or subtract it to both sides

x^2+8x+16=3+16

then combine like terms

x^2+8x+16=19

then factor your quadratic equation

(x+4)^2=19

now solve for x

take the square root of (x+4)^2 to get rid of the ^2

you then also have to square the 19 because what you do to one side you have to do to the other

(x+4)= square root of 19

subtract 4 from both sides

x= plus or minus square root of 19 -4

A right rectangular prism with square bases has a height of 20 centimeters and a volume of 800 cubic centimeters. Which statemen
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

The diagonal of the base is 4√5 centimeters.

The area of a base is 40 square centimeters.

The area of a lateral side between the bases is about 126.5 square centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of any rectangular prism can be found by the formula

volume =B.h

where B = area of base and h is the height of the prism.

It is given the volume of prism is 800 cubic centimeters and height is  20 centimeters.

Substituting these values in the volume formula :

800= B(20)

Or B= 800÷20=40.

Hence area of base is 40 square centimeters.

The diagonal of base = \sqrt{80}=4\sqrt{5}

The Volume of prism is 800 cubic unit and base area is 40 square units .Lateral area = area of all sides except the base = 126.5 square centimeters.
