Answer:

Measure of central angle is 3.665 radians

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are trying to get the value of the central angle.

As we can see, the radius of the circle is 12cm while the length of the major arc is 14 pi cm.

Mathematically the length of an arc is calculated as follows;

Length of arc = theta/360 * 2 * pi * r

Plugging the values we have from the question;

14 pi = theta/360 * 2 * pi * 12

divide both sides by 2pi

7 = theta/360 * 12

360 * 7 = 12 theta

theta = (360 * 7)/12

theta = 210

Since 1 degree = pi/180 radian

it means 210 degrees = 210 * pi/180 = 3.665 radians

What is the measure of a base angle of an isosceles triangle if the measure of the vertex angle is 42 and the two congruent side

Sidana [21]

If vertex angle is 42, and the base angles are congruent, this is an isosceles triangle, they each measure: 180-42/2. They each measure 69 degrees. The length of sides don't matter.

Law of cosines.Anyone good in Trigonometry?

marin [14]

Answer:

$c=11.8\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula of law of cosines is equal to

$c^2=a^2+b^2-2(a)(b)cos(C)$

where

a, b and c are sides. C is the angle opposite side c

In this problem we have

$a=3\ units\\b=10\ units$

$C=120^o$

substitute the given values

$c^2=3^2+10^2-2(3)(10)cos(120^o)$

$c^2=109-(60)cos(120^o)$

$c^2=109-(60)(-0.5))$

$c^2=109+30$

$c^2=139$

$c=11.8\ units$

How to determine if Triangles are Congruent?

IRISSAK [1]

So basically what you have to do is first identify all of the sides or angles that equal eachother then you can see if you did a side side and side in a row etc, like 44 would be SAS because the vertical angles would be inbetween the two sides. 46 would be SSS because after you make the line in the middle for reflexive property you can see that there are three sides in a row. If this didnt help i recommend looking on Khan Academy
