"How did you program your robot to move in a perfect triangle?" Arianna asks, sounding impressed. "It always comes back to exact

ly where it started!" "My code uses the law of cosines and the law of sines." Raphael proudly replies. "For example, if it moves 3 m3\text{ m}3 m, turns 120?120^\circ120?, then moves 4 m4\text{ m}4 m more, it can compute the distance back to where it started as well as the angle it must turn." In Raphael's example, what distance would his robot compute? Do not round during your calculations. Round your final answer to the nearest hundredth of a meter

Answer:

The distance computed is 6.08 m

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the sides (a) of the triangle has a length of 3 m, the other side (b) has a length of 4 m, and the angle (C) form between them measures 120°. The law of cosine states:

c² = a² + b² - 2ab cos C

Replacing with data (dimensions are omitted):

c² = 3² + 4² - 2(3)(4) cos 120°

c = √37

c = 6.08 m

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In Raphael's example,  the robot moves in a perfect triangle. A perfect triangle is known to have three equal sides and three equal angles of 60° each. Raphael's example mentions the length of two sides of the triangle as 3m and 4m and it also mentions the angle the robot turns 120°

Therefore the angle created is 180°-120°= 60° which is an angle of a perfect triangle.

The distance that the robot has to calculate would be equal to the length of the third side of the triangle

lets assume the length of the third side of the triangle to be \beta and the two remaining angles to be a and b.

To get the distance \beta, let's list out what we know about this triangle.

side a = 3m

side b = 4m

side c =<em> β</em>

Angle 1 = Angle made between side 2 and 3 = A

Angle 2 = Angle made between side 1 and 3 = B

Angle β = Angle made between side 1 and 2 = 60°

The law of cosines states that

\beta ^{2} = a^{2} + b^{2} - 2ab(cosβ)

\beta ^{2} = 3^{2} + 4^{2} - 2×3×4(cos 60)

\beta ^{2}   = 9 + 16 - 24(0.5)

\beta ^{2}   = 9 + 16 - 12

\beta ^{2}   = 13

<em>β</em> = \sqrt{13}

<em>β</em> = 3.6055512755 m

The distance the robot will compute is 3.61 meter to the nearest hundredth.

I don’t understand how to do this question so can anyone help me?
nataly862011 [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

from the line above

P1 = -2

P2 = -1

P3 = 1/3

P4 = 2/3

P5 = 1 1/2 = 3/2

The product of P1 to P5,P

=> P = -2×-1×1/3×2/3×3/2 = 2/3

LCM of two numbers is 1320 their HCF is 12 if one of the numbers is 132 find the other
guapka [62]

Answer:

<u>brainliest plzzzzzzzz</u>

120

Step-by-step explanation:

LCM=1320

(GDC) HCF=12

Another no.=132

let second no. be =A

According to question

First no.×Second no.=HCF×LCM

132×A=12×1320

132×A=15840

A=15840/132

A=120

Other no. is 120

Answer:

Claim 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The Inscribed Angle Theorem* tells you ...

... ∠RPQ = 1/2·∠ROQ

The multiplication property of equality tells you that multiplying both sides of this equation by 2 does not change the equality relationship.

... 2·∠RPQ = ∠ROQ

The symmetric property of equality says you can rearrange this to ...

... ∠ROQ = 2·∠RPQ . . . . the measure of ∠ROQ is twice the measure of ∠RPQ

_____

* You can prove the Inscribed Angle Theorem by drawing diameter POX and considering the relationship of angles XOQ and OPQ. The same consideration should be applied to angles XOR and OPR. In each case, you find the former is twice the latter, so the sum of angles XOR and XOQ will be twice the sum of angles OPR and OPQ. That is, angle ROQ is twice angle RPQ.

You can get to the required relationship by considering the sum of angles in a triangle and the sum of linear angles. As a shortcut, you can use the fact that an external angle is the sum of opposite internal angles of a triangle. Of course, triangles OPQ and OPR are both isosceles.
