Answer:

The measure of other acute angle has to be less than 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a and b denote the two acute angle that is formed by a same ray.

such that a=50 degree.

Let c be the obtuse angle that is formed.

i.e. m∠c >90°

So, we get a triangle such that the three angles of a triangle are a , b and c.

As we know that the sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180°.

Hence,

m∠a+m∠b+m∠c=180°

Hence,

50+m∠b+m∠c=180°

m∠b+m∠c=180°-50°

m∠b+m∠c=130°

Hence,

m∠b=130°-m∠c

As,

m∠c>90°

⇒    -m∠c<-90°

⇒   130°-m∠c<130°-90°

⇒  130°-m∠c<40°

⇒  m∠b<40°

Hence, the measure of the other acute angle has to be less than 40°

Since anything over 90 degrees is considered obtuse the measure of the other angle could be anything over 40 degrees since 40+50=90

NikAS [45]

Answer:

1.5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

plug 0 in for y

0=-16t^2+36

then slove for t

-36=-16t^2

-36 / -16 = 9/4

9/4=t^2

square root of 9/4 is 3/2 or 1.5

t=1.5

X
tresset_1 [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

x and y are roughly in a linear relationship.

when x increases by 2 units, then also y increases by more or less 2 units.

when x increases by 3 units, then also y increases by more or less 3 units.

it is not precise, but a good approximation model.
