<h3>
Answer: 72.54</h3>
====================================================
Explanation:
We set up a cosine ratio, since we want to connect the adjacent and hypotenuse. Then we'll use the inverse cosine, which is also known as arccosine, to isolate the angle value.
This is what your steps could look like:
cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(L) = LM/LN
cos(L) = 18/60
cos(L) = 0.3
L = arccos(0.3)
L = 72.542396876278 which is approximate
L = 72.54 degrees approximately
Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.

Answer: B) y = (1/28)x^2</h3>
Explanation:
p = focal distance = 7
the focal distance is from the vertex to the focus
The parabola opens upward (since the vertex is below the focus) so 'a' is positive and a = 1/(4p) = 1/(4*7) = 1/28
The vertex is (h,k) = (0,0)
Put this all together into the formula below and simplify
y = a(x-h)^2 + k
y = (1/28)(x - 0)^2 + 0
y = (1/28)x^2
Answer:
the present age of the father be x and the present age of the son be y.
It is given that man is 24 years older than his son that is:
x=y+24
x−y=24..........(1)
Also, 12 years ago, he was five times as old as his son that is:
(x−12)=5(y−12)
x−12=5y−60
x−5y=−60+12
x−5y=−48..........(2)
Now subtract equation 1 from equation 2 to eliminate x, because the coefficients of x are same. So, we get
(x−x)+(−5y+y)=−24−48
i.e. −4y=−72
i.e. y=18
Substituting this value of y in (1), we get
x−18=24
i.e. x=24+18=42
Hence, the present age of the father is 42 years and the present age of the son is 18 years.
