<h2>Answer 1 </h2>

∠mB = 39°

BA= 14.30 inches.

CA= 11.1126 inches.

<u>Step by step explanation: </u>

Given one angle and one side:

∠A= 51°

∠mB= ?

As, it is a right angled triangle therefore, ∠C= 90

Also, sum of measure of triangle is 180:

∠mA + ∠mB + ∠mC = 180°

51° + ∠mB + 90° = 180°

∠mB = 180° - 90° - 51°

∠mB = 39° (Answer)

Now to calculate the required sides:

Given, BC= 9 inch (perpendicular)

BA= ? (hypotenuse) & CA= ? (base)

To find BA=

Since, perpendicular is given and we have to find hypotenuse. We will put the formula:

Sin ∠mB = Perp/ Hyp

Sin 39° = 9/ BA

BA= 9/ 0.629

BA= 14.30 inches.

For side CA, we will use Pythagorean Theorem:

Hyp2 = Perp2 + Base2

BA2 = BC2 + CA2

(14.30)2 = 92 + CA2

204.49 = 81 + CA2

CA2 = 123.49

Taking square root on both sides: weget,

CA= 11.1126 inches.

<h2>Answer 2 </h2>

∠mA = 37°

BC = 3.993 m.

CA = 3 m.

<u>Step by step explanation:</u>

Given one angle and one side:

∠mB = 53°

∠mA= ?

As, it is a right angled triangle therefore, ∠C= 90°

Also, sum of measure of triangle is 180:

∠mA + ∠mB + ∠mC = 180°

∠mA + 53° + 90° = 180°

∠mA = 180° - 143°

∠mA = 37°

Now to calculate the required sides:

Given, CB= ?(perpendicular)

BA= 5 m (hypotenuse) & CA= ? (base)

To find CB=

Since, hypotenuse is given and we have to find perpendicular. We will put the formula:

Sin ∠mA = Perp/ Hyp

Sin 37 = CB/ 5

0.601 = CB / 5

0.601 x 5 = CB

CB = 3.009 m.

For side CA, we will use Pythagorean Theorem:

Hyp2 = Perp2 + Base2

BA2 = CB2 + CA2

52 - 3.0092 = CA

15.94 = CA2

Taking square root on both sides: we get,

CA = 3.99 m.

<h2>Answer 3</h2>

m∠B = 62°

AB= 62.41 ml

CB= 55.10 ml.

<u>Step by step explanation</u>

Given one angle and one side,

∠mA= 28°

∠mB= ?

As, it is a right angled triangle therefore, ∠C= 90°

Also, sum of measure of triangle is 180:

∠mA + ∠mB + ∠mC = 180°

28° + m∠B + 90° = 180°

118° + m∠B = 180°

m∠B = 180° - 118°

m∠B = 62°

Now to calculate the required sides:

Given, CA= 29.3 ml (perpendicular)

AB= ? (hypotenuse) & CB= ? (base)

To findAB=

Since, perpendicular is given and we have to find hypotenuse. We will put the formula:

Sin ∠mA = Perp/ Hyp

Sin 28° = 29.3 / AB

0.469 = 29.3 / AB

AB = 29.3 / 0.469

AB= 62.41 ml

For side CA, we will use Pythagorean Theorem:

Hyp2 = Perp2 + Base2

AB2 = CA2 + CB2

62.41 = 29.3 + CB2

CB2 = 3036.59

Taking square root on both sides:

CB= 55.10 ml.

<h2>Answer 4</h2>

m∠B= 66°

AC= 5.694 m

CB = 12.78m.

<u>Step by step explanation: </u>

Given one angle and one side,

∠mA= 24°

∠mB= ?

As, it is a right angled triangle therefore, ∠C= 90°

Also, sum of measure of triangle is 180:

∠mA + ∠mB + ∠mC = 180°

24° + m∠B + 90° = 180°

114° + m∠B = 180°

m∠B = 180° - 114°

m∠B= 66°

Now to calculate the required sides:

Given, AB=14 m (hypotenuse)

AC= ? (perpendicular) & CB= ? (base)

To find AC =

Since, hypotenuse is given and we have to find perpendicular. We will put the formula:

Sin ∠mA = Perp/ Hyp

Sin 24° = AC/ 14

0.406 = AC / 14

AC= 5.694 m

For side CB, we will use Pythagorean Theorem:

Hyp2 = Perp2 + Base2

AB2 = AC2 + CB2

14 = 5.694 + CB2

CB2 = 163.574

Taking square root on both side:

CB = 12.78m.

You have an aquarium in the shape of a rectangular prism. The base is 4 feet by 3 feet. The height is 2 feet. How many square fe

fiasKO [112]

Since it is about only the outer part of the aquarium which is made of glasses we need to calculate the total surface area.

Surface area of the base = 4*3 = 12 square feet

Surface area of the shorter length of wall = 3*2 = 6 square feet
since it has another wall in opposite side. It has to be multiplied with 2.
6*2 = 12 square feet

Surface area of the longer length of wall = 4*2 = 8 square feet
since it has another wall in opposite side. It has to be multiplied with 2.
8*2 = 16 square feet

Therefore the total surface area that need to be covered with glasses
12+12+16 = 40 square feet

What is the correct answer to this question?<br><br> F/2=5/8

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

F = 1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

All you would have to do is cross multiply, so our equations starts at $\frac{F}{2} = \frac{5}{8}$ . We would now multiply F by 8 and 2 by 5. We now have 8F = 10. We can now divide both sides of the equation by 8 to get F = 1.25.

Does anybody know how to do time with exponential decay

My name is Ann [436]

<span>From the message you sent me:

when you breathe normally, about 12 % of the air of your lungs is replaced with each breath. how much of the original 500 ml remains after 50 breaths

If you think of number of breaths that you take as a time measurement, you can model the amount of air from the first breath you take left in your lungs with the recursive function

$b_n=0.12\times b_{n-1}$

Why does this work? Initially, you start with 500 mL of air that you breathe in, so $b_1=500\text{ mL}$ . After the second breath, you have 12% of the original air left in your lungs, or $b_2=0.12\timesb_1=0.12\times500=60\text{ mL}$ . After the third breath, you have $b_3=0.12\timesb_2=0.12\times60=7.2\text{ mL}$ , and so on.

You can find the amount of original air left in your lungs after $n$ breaths by solving for $b_n$ explicitly. This isn't too hard:

$b_n=0.12b_{n-1}=0.12(0.12b_{n-2})=0.12^2b_{n-2}=0.12(0.12b_{n-3})=0.12^3b_{n-3}=\cdots$

and so on. The pattern is such that you arrive at

$b_n=0.12^{n-1}b_1$

and so the amount of air remaining after $50$ breaths is

$b_{50}=0.12^{50-1}b_1=0.12^{49}\times500\approx3.7918\times10^{-43}$

which is a very small number close to zero.</span>
