Answer:

\theta_{CAB}=128.316

\theta_{ABC}=25.842

\theta_{BCA}=25.842

Step-by-step explanation:

A = (-3,0) , B = (1,3) , and C = (1,-3)

We're going to use the distance formula to find the length of the sides:

r= \sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2+(z_1-z_2)^2}

AB= \sqrt{(-3-1)^2+(0-3)^2}=5

BC= \sqrt{(1-1)^2+(3-(-3))^2}=9

CA= \sqrt{(1-(-3))^2+(-3-0)^2}=5

we can use the cosine law to find the angle:

it is to be noted that:

the angle CAB is opposite to the BC.

the angle ABC is opposite to the AC.

the angle BCA is opposite to the AB.

to find the CAB, we'll use:

BC^2 = AB^2+CA^2-(AB)(CA)\cos{\theta_{CAB}}

\dfrac{BC^2-(AB^2+CA^2)}{-2(AB)(CA)} =\cos{\theta_{CAB}}

\cos{\theta_{CAB}}=\dfrac{9^2-(5^2+5^2)}{-2(5)(5)}

\theta_{CAB}=\arccos{-\dfrac{0.62}}

\theta_{CAB}=128.316

Although we can use the same cosine law to find the other angles. but we can use sine law now too since we have one angle!

To find the angle ABC

\dfrac{\sin{\theta_{ABC}}}{AC}=\dfrac{\sin{CAB}}{BC}

\sin{\theta_{ABC}}=AC\left(\dfrac{\sin{CAB}}{BC}\right)

\sin{\theta_{ABC}}=5\left(\dfrac{\sin{128.316}}{9}\right)

\theta_{ABC}=\arcsin{0.4359}\right)

\theta_{ABC}=25.842

finally, we've seen that the triangle has two equal sides, AB = CA, this is an isosceles triangle. hence the angles ABC and BCA would also be the same.

\theta_{BCA}=25.842

this can also be checked using the fact the sum of all angles inside a triangle is 180

\theta_{ABC}+\theta_{BCA}+\theta_{CAB}=180

25.842+128.316+25.842

180

Answer:

The measure of ∠ABC is 53.130º

The measure of ∠BCA is: 53.130º

The measure of ∠CAB is: 73.739º

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Calculate the measure of each leg:

d_{AB}=\sqrt{(-3-1)^{2}+(0-3)^{2}}\Rightarrow d_{AB}=5\\d_{AC}=\sqrt{(-3-1)^{2}+(0-(-3))^{2}}\Rightarrow d_{AC}=5\\d_{BC}=\sqrt{(1-1)^{2}+(3-(-3)^{2}}\Rightarrow d_{BC}=6\\

2) Since it's an isosceles triangle, trace a line segment to turn into two right triangles, from point A to the intersection of BC with x-axis.

From point -3 to point -1

|-3-1|=3+1=4

The height is equal to 4

Then we can use trigonometric functions to calculate the angle measures .The measure of ∠ABC :

Since D is the midpoint, BC was equally sectioned  into two parts.

sen\angle B=\frac{4}{5}\Rightarrow \angle B=arc \:sen\left ( \frac{4}{5} \right )\Rightarrow \angle B=53.13^{\circ}\\\angle B=\angle C=53.130^{\circ} \:isosceles \:triangle\\tan\angle A'=\frac{3}{4}\:\:A'=arc tan \frac{3}{4} \therefore\angle A'=36.87^{\circ}\Rightarrow A'=A''\Rightarrow A'+A''=A\Rightarrow A\approx 73.739^{\circ}

77julia77 [94]

well, 6.2% of 4,300 can't be over half. she has made a calculation error, and the real answer is (this is where the mistake was made) 4,300 * 0.062 (not 6.2, because percents are always divided by 100 to make them into a usable number), which is equal to $266.60.

Which of the objects shown above are pyramids?
PolarNik [594]
<h3>Answer: A and B (first answer choice)</h3>

Explanation:

Both figures shown in A and B are triangular pyramids. The base is a triangle, and the lateral sides are also triangles. Another example would be rectangular pyramids where the base is a rectangle, and the lateral sides are triangles.

Choice C is ruled out because cones aren't considered pyramids.

Choice D is a combination of a rectangular prism, and a rectangular pyramid stacked on top, so it's not purely a pyramid only. We can rule out choice D.

Change 1 hour 25 minutes 29 seconds to seconds
Orlov [11]

Answer:

remember

1h=60min

1min=60 sec

now come to the question

1h=60min

1min=60 sec

60min=60×60=3600sec in 1hour

25min=60×25=1500sec in 25 min

total all sec=3600+1500+29=5129sec
