Consider the diagram showing the path Joel biked. Joel biked 9 miles east and then 12 miles north. If he biked back to his start

ing point using the most direct route, how many miles would he ride all together? Joel’s starting point is x

Using the Pythagorean theorem:

The direct distance back would be:

√(9^2 + 12^2)

√(81 + 144)

√225

15 miles

The total miles would be the sum of the 3 sides:

15 + 9 +12 = 36 total miles.

Answer:

36 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the diagram showing the path Joel biked. Joel biked 9 miles east and then 12 miles north. If he biked back to his starting point using the most direct route, he would have ride 36 miles all together. Joel’s starting point is x.

In order to solve this, we must use the Pythagorean theorem.

The amount of miles would be found by adding the 3 sides together to find the sum or answer.

15 + 9 + 12 = 36 miles

Simplify. (2/5)^4... words to fill in minimum space

Stella [2.4K]

When you have a power to a fraction, you simply take it by the top and then by the bottm.

So, split it into two: (2)^4 and (5)^4

Solve: (2)^4=16
(5)^4=625

So the fraction is: 16/625

Check to see if it reduces: It doesn't. (Odd and even numbers that have no common multiples).

Therefore, that's the answer.

Determine the number of possible solutions for a triangle with B=37 degrees, a=32, b=27

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Two possible solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Applying the law of sines

$\frac{a}{sin(A)}=\frac{b}{Sin(B)}=\frac{c}{Sin(C)}$

we have

$a=32\ units$

$b=27\ units$

$B=37\°$

step 1

Find the measure of angle A

$\frac{a}{sin(A)}=\frac{b}{Sin(B)}$

substitute the values

$\frac{32}{sin(A)}=\frac{27}{Sin(37\°)}$

$sin(A)=(32)Sin(37\°)/27=0.71326$

$A=arcsin(0.71326)=45.5\°$

The measure of angle A could have two measures

the first measure-------> $A=45.5\°$

the second measure -----> $A=180\°-45.5\°=134.5\°$

step 2

Find the first measure of angle C

Remember that the sum of the internal angles of a triangle must be equal to $180\°$

$A+B+C=180\°$

substitute the values

$A=45.5\°$

$B=37\°$

$45.5\°+37\°+C=180\°$

$C=180\°-(45.5\°+37\°)=97.5\°$

step 3

Find the first length of side c

$\frac{a}{sin(A)}=\frac{c}{Sin(C)}$

substitute the values

$\frac{32}{sin(37\°)}=\frac{c}{Sin(97.5\°)}$

$c=Sin(97.5\°)\frac{32}{sin(37\°)}=52.7\ units$

therefore

the measures for the first solution of the triangle are

$A=45.5\°$ , $a=32\ units$

$B=37\°$ , $b=27\ units$

$C=97.5\°$ , $b=52.7\ units$

step 4

Find the second measure of angle C with the second measure of angle A

Remember that the sum of the internal angles of a triangle must be equal to $180\°$

$A+B+C=180\°$

substitute the values

$A=134.5\°$

$B=37\°$

$134.5\°+37\°+C=180\°$

$C=180\°-(134.5\°+37\°)=8.5\°$

step 5

Find the second length of side c

$\frac{a}{sin(A)}=\frac{c}{Sin(C)}$

substitute the values

$\frac{32}{sin(37\°)}=\frac{c}{Sin(8.5\°)}$

$c=Sin(8.5\°)\frac{32}{sin(37\°)}=7.9\ units$

therefore

the measures for the second solution of the triangle are

$A=45.5\°$ , $a=32\ units$

$B=37\°$ , $b=27\ units$

$C=8.5\°$ , $b=7.9\ units$
