SOH CAH TOA tells you

... cos(B) = a/c

... 4/5 = 8/c

... c = 10 . . . . . multiply by 5c/4

By the Pythagorean theorem,

... b = √c² -a²) = √(10² -8²) = √36 = 6

The lengths of the other two sides are: b = 6, c = 10.

_____

You can tell from the value of the cosine that this is a 3-4-5 right triangle. You can tell from the value of "a" that the scale factor is 2. That means the other two sides are 6 and 10.

If r(x) = 2 – x2 and w(x) = x – 2, what is the range of ? (w0r)(x)
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

The range would be all real numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find (wor)(x), we need to start with the w(x) equation and then input the r(x) equation for every x in the w(x) equation.

w(x) = x - 2

(wor)(x) = (2 - x^2) - 2

(wor)(x) = -x^2

Given this equation, we know that x can be all real numbers
