Answer:

  35

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of sines tells us ...

  sin(C)/c = sin(A)/a

  a·sin(3A) = c·sin(A)

Using the identity sin(3x) = 3cos(x)·sin(x) -sin(x)^3 and sin(x)^2 +cos(x)^2 = 1, we can simplify this to ...

  sin(A)(4cos(A)^2 -1) = (c/a)sin(A)

  4cos(A)^2 = c/a +1 = (48+27)/27 = 75/27 = 25/9

  cos(A)^2 = 25/36

  cos(A) = 5/6

__

Now, the angle B will be the difference between 180° and the sum of the other two angles:

  B = 180° -A -3A = 180° -4A

Using appropriate trig identities, we can write ...

  sin(B) = 4cos(A)^3sin(A) -4sin(A)^3cos(A)

  = 4sin(A)cos(A)(cos(A)^2 -sin(A)^2)

  = 4sin(A)cos(A)(2cos(A)^2 -1)

Filling in our value for cos(A), this becomes ...

  sin(B) = 4sin(A)(5/6)(2(5/6)^2-1) = sin(A)(35/27)

__

The law of sines tells us ...

  b/sin(B) = a/sin(A)

  b = a·sin(B)/sin(A) = 27(35/27)sin(A)/sin(A) = 35

The length of side b is 35 units.

Find the difference and the next three terms -10 -20 -30
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

- 40, - 50, - 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Note the common difference d between consecutive terms of the sequence.

- 20 - (- 10) = - 20 + 10 = - 10

- 30 - (- 20) = - 30 + 20 = - 10

Thus the difference d = - 10

To obtain a term in the sequence subtract 10 from the previous term

- 30 - 10 = - 40

- 40 - 10 = - 50

- 50 - 10 = - 60

The next 3 terms are - 40, - 50, - 60

What is 11/12 minus 3/8
Mrac [35]

Answer: \frac{13}{24}

Step-by-step explanation: 11/12 - 3/8

1. First, we will find a common denomenator. It needs to be the least common factor, or the answer will not be in its simplist form. Let's take a look at the multiples of 12 and 8.

12: 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96

8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72

2. Next, we will choose the smallest common multiple. That would be 24.

3. Now, we will work this out.

11/12 = 22/24

3/8 = 9/24

4. Subtract.

22/24 - 9/24

= 13/24

= \frac{13}{24}

I found the denomenators by multiplying.

Hope this answer helped!
