I believe the answer would be 15,626 , since to find the square inches you just multiple to two measurements together, hope this is right

Answer: 12 squares.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two lenghts, 108in and 144in, and we want to divide it in squares (remember that the squares have the same lenght in both sides)

So we need to find a common factor between 108 and 144, and if we want to find the minimum number of squares used, we need to find the bigger common factor betwen those two numbers (if we use bugher lengths for the square sides, we will use less squares) To find it we chose the smaller number and we divide it by 2

108/2 = 54

This number divides the other?

144/54 = 2.66 is not a integer number, so 54 is not a common factor.

now we try with 108/3 = 36

and we try:

144/36 = 4

So 36 is a common factor

And we have:

144/36 = 4

108/36 = 3

so the total number of squares is 4*3 = 12

Answer:

1.1) B=12.42°, C=146.58°, c=15.37  

1.2) B=8°, C=124°, c=35.7  

2) In the case of SSA, when the given angle A is acute (<90°), the side "a" (opposite to the given angle "A") is less than the other given side "b" (a<b), and a > b sinA.  

3.1) Perimeter = 31.37 units, Area = 16.5 square units  

3.2) Perimeter = 73.70 units, Area = 75.6 square units  

4.1) Magnitude of vector AB=5.1

4.2) Direction of vector AB=348.69°  

5.1) The dot product of two vectors is equal to the sum of the product of their components

5.2) a . b = 10  

6.1) Trigonometric form: z = 3√2 (cos 315°+ i sin 315°)  

6.2) The 4th roots are:  

w1 = 18^(1/8) [cos(78.75°) + i sin(78.75°)]

w2 = 18^(1/8) [cos(168.75°) + i sin(168.75°)]

w3 = 18^(1/8) [cos(258.75°) + i sin(258.75°)]

w4 = 18^(1/8) [cos(348.75°) + i sin(348.75°)]


Step-by-step explanation:

3.1) Perimeter: P = a+b+c → P = 10+6+15.37 → P = 31.37  

Area: A = a b sinC / 2

Replacing the known values:

A = (10)(6) sin 146.58325418° / 2 → A = 60(0.55072472) / 2 →

A = 16.52174152 → A = 16.52 square units


3.2) Perimeter: P = a+b+c → P = 32+6+35.70 → P=73.70

Area: A = a b sin C /2

Replacing the known values:

A = (32)(6) sin 123.99036327° / 2 → A = 192(0.82913161) / 2 →

A = 75.59663485 → A = 75.6 square units

Answer:

Greater, Less than, Greater

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember anything close to zero will always be greater in negative numbers. Example. -1>-2. Negative one is greater since it it closer to zero than 2.
