Answer:

AB ≈ 14.3

Step-by-step explanation:

We're given <em>two sides </em>(BC and CA) and an <em>angle </em>(C)<em> between them</em>; the <em>law of cosines </em>is a good tool for calculating the third side of the triangle here. To remind you, the law of cosines tells us the relationship between the sides of a triangle with side lengths a, b, and c:

c^2=a^2+b^2-2ab\cos{C}

Where C is the angle between sides a and b. c is typically the side we're trying to find, so on our triangle, we have

c=AB\\a=BC=16\\b=CA=5\\C=m\angle C=61^{\circ}

Substituting these values into the law of cosines:

c^2=16^2+5^2-2(16)(5)\cos{61^{\circ}}\\c^2=256+25-160\cos{61^{\circ}}\\c^2=281-160\cos{61^{\circ}}\\c=\sqrt{281-160\cos{61^{\circ}}}\\c\approx 14.3

According to the Rational Root Theorem, the following are potential roots of f(x) = 2x2 + 2x – 24.
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

The answer is 3 and (-4).

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given an equation 2x² + 2x – 24.

Let us assume that the equation is equal to zero.

2x² + 2x – 24 = 0

Now, divide whole equation by 2 we get,

x² + x – 12 = 0

x² + 4x – 3x – 12 = 0

x(x + 4) – 3(x + 4) = 0

(x – 3) (x + 4) = 0

x = 3, -4

Thus, The actual roots of f(x) are 3 and (-4).
