Answer:

a = 49°

Step-by-step explanation:

OB = OC ( both radii of the circle ), thus

Δ BOC is isosceles and the base angles are congruent, that is

∠ OBC = ∠ OCB = 41° , so

∠ BOC = 180° - (2 × 41)° = 180° - 82° = 98°

The angle on the circumference BAC is half the angle at the centre for angles subtended on the same arc , thus

a = 0.5 × 98° = 49°

If g(x) = 1 - ¾ x find: -5g(4) - 1

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

-5g(4) - 1 is 9

Step-by-step explanation:

$g(x) = 1 - \frac{3}{4} x$

when x is 4:

$g(4) = 1 - \frac{3}{4} \times 4 \\ = 1 - 3 \\ = - 2$

therefore:

$- 5g(4) - 1 = - 5( - 2) - 1 \\ = 10 - 1 \\ = 9$

Find all solutions in the interval (0,2pi) you should get kpi and pi/4 but how do you get there

Ket [755]

Add sin(x) to both sides

tan(x)sin(x)=sin(x)

Divide sin(x) from both sides

tan(x)=1

now you just have to figure out where tan(x)=1. you can figure this out from there by looking at the unit circle.

Which ratio is equivalent to 7:3?

aliina [53]

Answer:

The answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

7x4 is 28 which means you have to multiply 3x4. That gives you 12. 28:12 is the proper ratio. (Hope this helped!)

Find the area of a regular nonagon with a side length of 7 and an apothem of 5

vitfil [10]

A NONA=9, nonagon has 9 sides, so it's perimeter is 7+7+7+7+7+7+7+7+7, or 63, and we know the apothem.

bearing in mind that the area of a regular polygon is
(1/2)ap a = apothem, p = perimeter

so in this case that'd be (1/2)(5)(63).
