Answer:

13/85

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve the triangle using the trigonometrical ratios which may be expressed in the form SOA CAH TOA Where,

SOA

Sin Ф = opposite side/hypotenuses side

CAH

Cosine Ф = adjacent side/hypotenuses side

TOA

Tangent Ф = opposite side/adjacent side

The hypotenuse is the side facing the right angle while the opposite is the side facing the given angle.

Hence considering ∠K,

KM is the adjacent side, KL is the hypotenuse side and ML is the opposite side.

cosine of ∠K = KM/KL

= 13/85

Answer:

cos K = 13/85

Step-by-step explanation:

KLM is a triangle with the ∠M = 90°. LK = 85, KM = 13 and ML = 84 . The ratio that represent the cosine of ∠K can be calculated below.

The triangle is a right angle triangle. The triangle has an opposite sides, adjacent sides and an hypotenuse.

KM = adjacent side

ML = opposite side

LK = hypotenuse

The ratio of the cosine of ∠ K can be gotten using the SOHCAHTOA principle.

cos K = adjacent/hypotenuse

adjacent = 13

hypotenuse = 85

cos K = 13/85

Look at mina's work below 10 7/12 - 9/12 = (10/12 + 7/12) - 9/12 = 17/12 - 9/12 = 8/12 is mina's solution reasonable. Explain

RSB [31]

10 7/12 - 9/12=(10/12+7/12)-9/12=17/12-9/12=8/12

127/12-9/12

Nope. Her solution doesn't seem reasonable. In order to subtract 9/12 from 10 7/12 you must convert 10 7/12 to an improper fraction. You should then have 127/12 where she has 10/12.

Hope this helps! =)

Which function has a range of y<3? y=3(2) y=2(3) O y=-(2)* +3 O y= (2)* - 3

VARVARA [1.3K]

option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a function is defined as

$f(x)=a^x$ where, a>0, then the range of the function is greater than 0.

$a^x>0$ .... (1)

Option A: Using inequity (1),

$2^x>0$

Multiply both side by 3.

$3(2^x)>0$

The range of first function is y>0. Therefore option A is incorrect.

Option B: Using inequity (1),

$3^x>0$

Multiply both side by 2.

$2(3^x)>0$

The range of second function is y>0. Therefore option B is incorrect.

Option C: Using inequity (1),

$2^x>0$

Multiply both side by -1.

$-2^x$

Add 3 on both the sides.

$-2^x+3$

$y$

The range of first function is y<3. Therefore option C is correct.

Option D: Using inequity (1),

$2^x>0$

Subtract 3 from both the sides.

$2^x-3>-3$

$y>-3$

The range of second function is y>-3. Therefore option D is incorrect.
