Find the lengths of side BC. Give your answer to 3 significant figures.

Mathematics

Alinara [238K]3 years ago
4 0

Step-by-step explanation:

since we are required to find side |BC| and the value of side |AB| is given as 6.3 cm

hence we find the cosine of the given angle...

cos71 = adjacent ÷ hypotenuse

cos71 = |AB| ÷ |BC|

cos 71 = 6.3 ÷ |BC|

|BC| = 6.3 ÷ 0.325

|BC| = 19.4 cm

Suppose given △ABD and △CBD.
patriot [66]

Answer:

The required result is proved with the help of angle bisector theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given △ABD and △CBD, AE and CE are the angle bisectors. we have to prove that \frac{AD}{AB}=\frac{DC}{CB}

Angle bisector theorem states that an angle bisector of an angle of a Δ divides the opposite side in two segments that are proportional to the other two sides of triangle.

In ΔADB, AE is the angle bisector

∴ the ratio of the length of side DE to length BE is equal to the ratio of the line segment AD to the line segment AB.

\frac{DE}{EB}=\frac{AD}{AB}   →  (1)

In ΔDCB, CE is the angle bisector

∴ the ratio of the length of side DE to length BE is equal to the ratio of the line segment CD to the line segment CB.

\frac{DE}{EB}=\frac{CD}{CB}    →  (2)

From equation (1) and (2), we get

\frac{AD}{AB}=\frac{CD}{CB}

Hence Proved.

Solve for x on the interval 0≤x&lt;2pi<br><br> cos(3x)=1/2
Ede4ka [16]

We will see that the solution in the given interval is: x = 0.349 radians.

<h3>How to solve equations with the variable in the argument of a cosine?</h3>

We want to solve:

cos(3*x) = 1/2

Here we must use the inverse cosine function, Acos(x). Remember that:

cos(Acos(x)) = Acos(cos(x)) = x.

If we apply that in both sides, we get:

Acos( cos(3x) ) = Acos(1/2)

3*x = Acos(1/2)

x = Acos(1/2)/3 = 0.349

So x is equal to 0.349 radians, which belongs to the given interval.

In a game using a spinner with five equal parts numbered 1 to 5, a contestant wins when the spinner lands on an odd number. Is t
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

A. yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The contestant has a 60% chance of winning because they could either spin 1, 3, or 5.

However, unless there's another player who can only spin evens, it's not fair, because the contestant who spins odds has a 60% chance, while this player will only have a 40% chance.

#2) A lifeguard is swimming to a drowning swimmer. The lifeguard's location is at
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

<h3>9.43</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating the distance between two points is expressed as

D =√(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

Given the coordinates (0,0) and (8,5)

D = √(5-0)²+(8-0)²

D = √5²+8²

D = √25 + 64

D = √89

<em>D = 9.43</em>

<em>Hence the distance between the life guard and the swimmer is 9.43</em>

<em></em>

jim drove 168 miles in 4 hours. if he keep the same pace, how long will if take him to drive 504 miles
pentagon [3]
You would first put 168 over 4 and simplify to get 42 over 1. Then you would divide 504 by 42 to get 12. You would have to drive 12 hours to get 504 miles.
