Answer: y ≈ 10.6 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The cosine function relates the adjacent side to the hypotenuse in a right triangle. The side adjacent to the 20° angle is 10 cm.
cos(20°) = (10 cm)/y
y = (10 cm)/cos(20°)
y ≈ 10.6 cm
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute the coordinates of the point into the left side of the inequality, evaluate and compare.
4(- 4) + 5(2) = - 16 + 10 = - 6 > - 7
Thus (- 4, 2 ) is not a solution

We need to solve for the angles of the smaller triangle in
order to solve for the angle of the larger triangle which would help us solve
the missing measurement of a side.
Given:
51 degrees.
Cut the triangle into two equal sides and it forms a right
triangle. All interior angles of a triangle sums up to 180 degrees.
180 – 51 – 90 = 39 degrees
39 degrees * 2 = 78 degrees.
Angle Q is 78 degrees.
In the bigger triangle, 4.3 is the hypotenuse. We need to
solve for the measurement of the long leg which is the opposite of the 78
degree angle.
We will use the formula:
Sine theta = opposite / hypotenuse
Sin(78 deg) = opposite / 4.3
Sin(78 deg) * 4.3 = opposite
4.21 = opposite. This is also the height of the triangle.
Area of a triangle = ½ * base * height
A = ½ * 3units * 4.21units
A = 6.315 square units.
