-1/19,7/4,-4/7 least to greatest
oee [108]
Answer:

Order from Least to Greatest
-4/7  <  -1/19  <  7/4


Showing Work
Rewriting as fractions or any negatives if necessary:
-1/19, 7/4, -4/7

The least common denominator (LCD) is: 532.

Rewriting as equivalent fractions with the LCD:
-28/532, 931/532, -304/532

Ordering these fractions by the numerator:
-304/532  <  -28/532  <  931/532

Therefore, the order of your input is:
-4/7  <  -1/19  <  7/4

Instructions:Select the correct answer. You’re given two side lengths of 10 centimeters and 8 centimeters. The angle between the
EleoNora [17]

Since we are given the lengths of 2 sides with the angle in between, therefore by cosine law we can only construct 1 triangle from this. By stating the angle in between, this constricts the possible number of triangles that can be formed into 1.

By calculation, the length of the 3rd side is calculated using cosine law:

c^2  = a^2 + b^2 – 2abcosθ

c^2 = 10^2 + 8^2 – 2(10)(8)cos40

c = 6.44 cm


ANSWER:

1 triangle
