parallel line: m1 x m2 = -1
-3 x 1/3 = -1

You're finding cos - so take the adjacent side and hypotenuse which is 10 over 12
Then take 10 divided by 12 cos
A = 0.1
"y varies directly as x" means y = kx
you do not know what k is yet, other than that it is some constant number.
Now plug in the given values, y=12 when x=4, in the equation
12 = 4k
=> k = 3
Now rewrite the equation with the k value you just found
y = 3k
Substitute 18 in place of x
y = 3(18)
y = 54

add 38 on both sides, solve for -44 + 38 which is -6.

Answer: Lattice parameter, a = (4R)/(√3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The typical arrangement of atoms in a unit cell of BCC is shown in the first attachment.
The second attachment shows how to obtain the value of the diagonal of the base of the unit cell.
If the diagonal of the base of the unit cell = x
(a^2) + (a^2) = (x^2)
x = a(√2)
Then, diagonal across the unit cell (a cube) makes a right angled triangle with one side of the unit cell & the diagonal on the base of the unit cell.
Let the diagonal across the cube be y
Pythagoras theorem,
(a^2) + ((a(√2))^2) = (y^2)
(a^2) + 2(a^2) = (y^2) = 3(a^2)
y = a√3
But the diagonal through the cube = 4R (evident from the image in the first attachment)
y = 4R = a√3
a = (4R)/(√3)
