The scenario will will be represented by: $x+x+2x+4x=-104$

The number will be -13

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to convert the given situation into the mathematical form

Let x be the number

Then

"a number plus itself"

x+x

"plus twice itself"

x+x+2x

"plus 4 times itself"

x+x+2x+4x

"is equal to -104"

$x+x+2x+4x=-104$

This can also be written as:

$x+x+2x+4x=-104\\8x=-104\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 8\\\frac{8x}{8}=\frac{-104}{8}\\x=-13$

If tan theta =3, find the value of tan theta + tan (theta+pi) + tan (theta +2pi)

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

$tan\theta + tan(\theta + \pi) + tan(\theta+2\pi) = 9$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$tan\theta = 3$

Required

Find

$tan\theta + tan(\theta + \pi) + tan(\theta+2\pi)$

Calculate $tan(\theta + \pi) \ and\ tan(\theta+2\pi)$

Using tan rule

$tan(\theta + \pi) = \frac{tan\theta + tan\pi}{1 - tan\theta tan\pi}$

So:

$tan(\theta + \pi) = \frac{tan\theta + 0}{1 - tan\theta *0}$

$tan(\theta + \pi) = \frac{tan\theta}{1 }$

$tan(\theta + \pi) = \tan\theta$

$tan(\theta+2\pi)$

$tan(\theta + 2\pi) = \frac{tan\theta + tan2\pi}{1 - tan\theta tan2\pi}$

$tan(\theta + 2\pi) = \frac{tan\theta + 0}{1 - tan\theta *0}$

$tan(\theta + 2\pi) = \tan\theta$ '

'So:

$tan\theta + tan(\theta + \pi) + tan(\theta+2\pi)$ $= tan\theta +tan\theta +tan\theta$

$tan\theta + tan(\theta + \pi) + tan(\theta+2\pi) = 3+3+3$

$tan\theta + tan(\theta + \pi) + tan(\theta+2\pi) = 9$

Solve for c of the right triangle

Ede4ka [16]

In order to solve this triangle we must use cosine law:
$c^{2} = a^{2} + b^{2} - 2ab*cosC$

Now let's plug in the values we are given:
$c^{2} = 5^{2} + 8^{2} - 2(5)(8) * cos 67$
$c^{2} = 25 + 64 - 80*cos67$
$c = \sqrt{80-cos67}$
