Answer:

The correct option is third one  51°.

Therefore,

m\angle Z=51\°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

In Triangle XYZ

XY = z = 16

YZ = x = 19

ZX = y = 18  

To Find

angle Z = ?

Solution:

In Triangle XYZ, Cosine Rule says

\cos Z=\dfrac{x^{2}+y^{2}-z^{2}}{2xy}

Substituting the values we get

\cos Z=\dfrac{19^{2}+18^{2}-16^{2}}{2\times 19\times 18}

\cos Z=\dfrac{429}{684}=0.6271

m\angle Z=\cos^{-1}(0.6271)=51\°

Therefore,

m\angle Z=51\°

Which situation is represented by the equation 6n+5=3n+20
balandron [24]

Answer:

a linear equation

Step-by-step explanation:

6n+5=3n+20

<u>collect like terms</u><u>:</u>

6n-3n=20-5

3n=15

<em><u>divide both sides with the coefficient of n</u></em>

3n÷3=15÷3

n=5

what is the slope intercept form of the linear equation with a graph that passes through (-2,2) and is perpendicular to the grap
qwelly [4]

Hey there!!

Steps to get into equation which is perpendicular:

  • Change the slope
  1. The slope of a perpendicular line is always negative reciprocal.
  • Take the point and get that into point-slope form.
  1. y - y = m ( x - x )
  • Convert this equation into slope-intercept form.

'm' is the slope.

We have the slope as 1/3

The perpendicular slope would be -3.

Point slope:

The point = (-2,2)

y - 2 = -3( x - (-2) )

y - 2 = -3(x+2)

y - 2 = -3x -6

Adding 2 on both sides:

y = -3x - 4

<em>Hence, the equation would be : </em>

<u><em>y = -3x - 4 </em></u>

Hope it helps!
