No, Jonah is not correct. The answer is shown in the picture.
Answer:
sin(A-B) = 24/25
Step-by-step explanation:
The trig identity for the differnce of angles tells you ...
sin(A -B) = sin(A)cos(B) -sin(B)cos(A)
We are given that sin(A) = 4/5 in quadrant II, so cos(A) = -√(1-(4/5)^2) = -3/5.
And we are given that cos(B) = 3/5 in quadrant I, so sin(B) = 4/5.
Then ...
sin(A-B) = (4/5)(3/5) -(4/5)(-3/5) = 12/25 + 12/25 = 24/25
The desired sine is 24/25.
Answer:
144m2
Step-by-step explanation:
I think very carefully on my brain is it cirrect?
We have a right triangle with
a = one leg = 28
b = other leg = 21
c = hypotenuse = 5x
use the pythagorean theorem (a^2+b^2 = c^2) and solve for x
a^2+b^2 = c^2
28^2+21^2 = (5x)^2
784+441 = 25x^2
1225 = 25x^2
25x^2 = 1225
(25x^2)/25 = 1225/25
x^2 = 49
sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(49)
|x| = 7
x = 7 or x = -7
Since the hypotenuse has length 5x meters, this means
5x = 5*7 = 35
or
5x = 5(-7) = -35
Toss out the negative length as it makes no sense.
The only value of x is x = 7
Therefore the final answer is x = 7
