Answer:

26.8°

Step-by-step explanation:

The cosine of an angle is the ratio of the adjacent side of the triangle in which the angle is formed to the hypotenuses side of the triangle. The cosine of the angle gives the ratio of these sides. However, the arc cosine of the ratio gives the angle measured in degrees.

If cos B = 0.8926

then arc cosine 0.8926 which may be expressed as cos-1 0.8926 will give the value of B.

B = cos-1 0.8926

= 26.8°

Answer:

5 X 4

Step-by-step explanation:

If you plot the dots, youll obviously see a rectangle. The height of the rect. is 4, while the length is 5, so the measurements would be 5 x 4.

Help anyone can help me do 16 and 17 question,I will mark brainlest.The no 16 question is find the area of the shaded region

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

Question 16 = 22

Question 17 = 20 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Concepts:

Area of Square = s²

s = side

Area of Triangle = bh/2

b = base
h = height

Diagonals of the square are congruent and bisect each other, which forms a right angle with 90°

Segment addition postulate states that given 2 points A and C, a third point B lies on the line segment AC if and only if the distances between the points satisfy the equation AB + BC = AC.

Solve:

Question # 16

Step One: Find the total area of two squares

Large square: 5 × 5 = 25

Small square: 2 × 2 = 4

25 + 4 = 29

Step Two: Find the area of the blank triangle

b = 5 + 2 = 7

h = 2

A = bh / 2

A = (7) (2) / 2

A = 14 / 2

A = 7

Step Three: Subtract the area of the blank triangle from the total area

Total area = 29

Area of Square = 7

29 - 7 = 22

-----------------------------------------------------------

Question # 17

Step One: Find the length of PT

Given:

PR = 4 cm
RT = 6 cm

PT = PR + RT [Segment addition postulate]

PT = (4) + (6)

PT = 10 cm

Step Two: Find the length of S to PT perpendicularly

According to the diagonal are perpendicular to each other and congruent. Therefore, the length of S to PT perpendicularly is half of the diagonal

Length of Diagonal = 4 cm

4 ÷ 2 = 2 cm

Step Three: Find the area of ΔPST

b = PT = 10 cm

h = S to PT = 2 cm

A = bh / 2

A = (10)(2) / 2

A = 20 / 2

A = 10 cm²

Step Four: Find the length of Q to PT perpendicularly

Similar to step two, Q is the endpoint of one diagonal, and by definition, diagonals are perpendicular and congruent with each other. Therefore, the length of Q to PT perpendicularly is half of the diagonal.

Length of Diagonal = 4 cm

4 ÷ 2 = 2 cm

Step Five: Find the area of ΔPQT

b = PT = 10 cm

h = Q to PT = 2 cm

A = bh / 2

A = (10)(2) / 2

A = 20 / 2

A = 10 cm²

Step Six: Combine area of two triangles to find the total area

Area of ΔPST = 10 cm²

Area of ΔPQT = 10 cm²

10 + 10 = 20 cm²

Hope this helps!! :)

The weight of meteorite A is 5 times the weight of meteorite B. If the sum of their weights is 126 tons, find the weight of each

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

if you divide 126 by 5, you get Meteorite B, 25.2, then minus that from 132, and you get Meteorite A, 106.8

To check, do 25.2 x 5 and you should get 132.
