I would use the pythagorean theorem to find the lengths of each side. a² + b² = c².

Side AB is one we're looking for. If you make other right triangle with that same side you can see that one length is 4 and the other is 3. So, 4² + 3² = c² → 25 = c² → 5 = c. Side AB is length 5.

Side AC is another. Do the same with that side and you get that one length is 4 and the other is 3. (This is the same one as above) so side AC is length 5.

Side BC is the last one. One of the lengths is 1 and the other is 1 → 1² + 1² = c² → 2 = c² → 1.414213562 = c so side BC is approximately length 1.41.

Add each length up and you get a perimeter of roughly 11.4

Answer:

y = 45 / 2x + 50

Step-by-step explanation:

The best equation for the line of the best fit would be y = 45 / 2x + 50.

The slope would be 45 / 2 and the y-intercept would be ( 0 , 50 ).

I used the points, ( 0 , 50 ) and ( 4 , 140 ) to get the equation, slope, and the y-intercept.

I used those points because they were the most accurate ones that I know for now.

Also, remember the formula is, "y = mx + b."

Find the exact value of cos(sin^-1(-5/13))

son4ous [18]

bearing in mind that the hypotenuse is never negative, since it's just a distance unit, so if an angle has a sine ratio of -(5/13) the negative must be the numerator, namely -5/13.

$\bf cos\left[ sin^{-1}\left( -\cfrac{5}{13} \right) \right] \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{then we can say that}~\hfill }{sin^{-1}\left( -\cfrac{5}{13} \right)\implies \theta }\qquad \qquad \stackrel{\textit{therefore then}~\hfill }{sin(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{-5}}{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{13}}}\impliedby \textit{let's find the \underline{adjacent}}$

$\bf \textit{using the pythagorean theorem} \\\\ c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \pm\sqrt{c^2-b^2}=a \qquad \begin{cases} c=hypotenuse\\ a=adjacent\\ b=opposite\\ \end{cases} \\\\\\ \pm\sqrt{13^2-(-5)^2}=a\implies \pm\sqrt{144}=a\implies \pm 12=a \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ cos\left[ sin^{-1}\left( -\cfrac{5}{13} \right) \right]\implies cos(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{adjacent}{\pm 12}}{13}$

le's bear in mind that the sine is negative on both the III and IV Quadrants, so both angles are feasible for this sine and therefore, for the III Quadrant we'd have a negative cosine, and for the IV Quadrant we'd have a positive cosine.

A line has a slope of -5/3. Through which two points could this line pass?

ladessa [460]

If there is no other context, you could use the points (0,0) and (3,-5) because you move down 5 and to the right 3.
