Answer:
6.7 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
To make use of the Law of Sines for finding b, you need to know the missing angle B. Since the sum of the angles of a triangle is 180°, you can find angle B as ...
B = 180° -82° -55° = 43°
Now, you put the numbers you know into the formula given and solve for b.
sin(A)/a = sin(B)/b
sin(55°)/(8 cm) = sin(43°)/b
Cross multiplying gives ...
b·sin(55°) = (8 cm)·sin(43°)
and dividing by the coefficient of b gives you ...
b = (8 cm)·sin(43°)/sin(55°) ≈ 6.7 cm
Cos Ф=side adjacent/ hypotenuse
In this case:
cos Ф=3/5
Answer: cos Ф=3/5
144 square feet ÷ 12 tiles per row = 12 rows of tiles.
There will be 12 rows of tiles.
