The diagram shows a 3 cm x 5 cm x 4 cm cuboid

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

a) The length of segment AC is approximately 5.83 centimeters.

b) The angle ACD is approximately 34.5º.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Since $AB \perp BC$ , the length of segment $AC$ is determined by Pythagorean Theorem, that is:

$AC = \sqrt{(5\,cm)^{2}+(3\,cm)^{2}}$

$AC \approx 5.831\,cm$

The length of segment AC is approximately 5.831 centimeters.

b) Since $AB \perp BC \perp AD$ , the length of segment $AD$ is determined by this Pythagorean identity:

$AD = \sqrt{(3\,cm)^{2}+(5\,cm)^{2}+(4\,cm)^{2}}$

$AD \approx 7.071\,cm$

The angle ACD is determined by the following trigonometric expression:

$\cos C = \frac{AC}{CD}$

$\cos C = \frac{5.831\,cm}{7.071\,cm}$

$\cos C = 0.825$

$C = \cos^{-1} 0.825$

$C \approx 34.448^{\circ}$

The angle ACD is approximately 34.448º.

Two cards are drawn without replacement from a standard deck of 52 cards. What is the probability that one of the cards is red a

alukav5142 [94]

Total cards = 52
Total red cards = 26
Total black cards = 26

P(one red and one black) = P(red and then black)+ P(black and then red)
P(one red and one black) =(26/52)(26/51) + (26/52)(26/51)
P(one red and one black) = 26/51 (Answer A)

Find the area of the triangle with the given measurements. Round the solution to the nearest hundredth if necessary.

Rama09 [41]

Check the picture below.

now, we have a triangle with all three sides, thus we can use Heron's Area Formula on the triangle.

$\bf \qquad \textit{Heron's area formula} \\\\ A=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}\qquad \begin{cases} s=\frac{a+b+c}{2}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ a=10\\ b=26.695\\ c=22\\ s=29.3475 \end{cases} \\\\\\ A=\sqrt{29.3475(29.3475-10)(29.3475-26.695)(29.3475-22)} \\\\\\ A=\sqrt{29.3475(19.3475)(2.6525)(7.3475)}\implies A\approx \sqrt{11066.007} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ ~\hfill A\approx 105.195~\hfill$
