Answer:

Alice Springs is landlocked in the middle of Australia. Portland Oregon is along the Pacific Ocean.

The specific heat of water is very high. The specific heat of land is lower.

This means it takes more heat/energy to change the temperature of water. In other words, the temperature of water is harder to change.  So I would expect temperatures of cities next to large bodies of water to remain relatively constant while landlocked cities temperatures to fluctuate more at the same latitudes.  

 

Another factor comes into play for cities next to water. Because there is a difference between the temperature of land and water, interactions between temperatures can have effects such as winds and fog.

Giving the right triangle JKL what is the value of cos (L)
kvasek [131]
<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

For the right triangle to be given in name of three letters such as this, the right angle is most likely to be in the center, in this case letter K. To determine the common trigonometric properties of a certain angle we may use of the mnemonics SOH - CAH - TOA. 

                         sin angle = opposite side / hypotenuse

                         cosine angle = adjacent side / hypotenuse

                         tangent angle = opposite side / adjacent side

If we let small letter j, k, and l be the sides opposite to angles J, K, and L, respectively. Then, the cos (L) will be,

                                      cos (L) = j/k
