x = 13

Question mark angle is 64 degrees

============================================================

Explanation:

Let y be the angle labeled as a question mark.

This angle y is adjacent to the exterior angle of measure 116 degrees

This means y and 116 must add to 180 to form a straight angle

y+116 = 180

y = 180-116

y = 64

So 64 degrees will replace the question mark.

Then we can find the angle x. Recall that all angles of a triangle add to 180

90+2x+y = 180

90+2x+64 = 180

2x+154 = 180

2x = 180-154

2x = 26

x = 26/2

x = 13

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

Alternatively, you can find x through the remote interior angle theorem

The interior angles 90 and 2x add to the exterior angle 116

90+2x = 116

2x = 116-90

2x = 26

x = 26/2

x = 13

This method doesn't involve angle y.

FIRST PART
We need to find sin α, cos α, and cos β, tan β
α and β is located on third quadrant, sin α, cos α, and sin β, cos β are negative

Determine ratio of ∠α
Use the help of right triangle figure to find the ratio
tan α = 5/12
side in front of the angle/ side adjacent to the angle = 5/12
Draw the figure, see image attached

Using pythagorean theorem, we find the length of the hypotenuse is 13
sin α = side in front of the angle / hypotenuse
sin α = -12/13

cos α = side adjacent to the angle / hypotenuse
cos α = -5/13

Determine ratio of ∠β
sin β = -1/2
sin β = sin 210° (third quadrant)
β = 210°

$cos \beta = -\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{3}$

$tan \beta= \frac{1}{3} \sqrt{3}$

SECOND PART
Solve the questions
Find sin (α + β)
sin (α + β) = sin α cos β + cos α sin β
$sin( \alpha + \beta )=(- \frac{12}{13} )( -\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{3})+( -\frac{5}{13} )( -\frac{1}{2} )$
$sin( \alpha + \beta )=(\frac{12}{26}\sqrt{3})+( \frac{5}{26} )$
$sin( \alpha + \beta )=(\frac{5+12\sqrt{3}}{26})$

Find cos (α - β)
cos (α - β) = cos α cos β + sin α sin β
$cos( \alpha + \beta )=(- \frac{5}{13} )( -\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{3})+( -\frac{12}{13} )( -\frac{1}{2} )$
$cos( \alpha + \beta )=(\frac{5}{26} \sqrt{3})+( \frac{12}{26} )$
$cos( \alpha + \beta )=(\frac{5\sqrt{3}+12}{26} )$

Find tan (α - β)
$tan( \alpha - \beta )= \frac{ tan \alpha-tan \beta }{1+tan \alpha tan \beta }$
$tan( \alpha - \beta )= \frac{ \frac{5}{12} - \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{3} }{1+(\frac{5}{12}) ( \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{3})}$

Simplify the denominator
$tan( \alpha - \beta )= \frac{ \frac{5}{12} - \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{3} }{1+(\frac{5\sqrt{3}}{24})}$
$tan( \alpha - \beta )= \frac{ \frac{5}{12} - \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{3} }{ \frac{24+5\sqrt{3}}{24} }$

Simplify the numerator
$tan( \alpha - \beta )= \frac{ \frac{5}{12} - \frac{6}{12} \sqrt{3} }{ \frac{24+5\sqrt{3}}{24} }$
$tan( \alpha - \beta )= \frac{ \frac{5-6\sqrt{3}}{12} }{ \frac{24+5\sqrt{3}}{24} }$

Simplify the fraction
$tan( \alpha - \beta )= (\frac{5-6\sqrt{3}}{12} })({ \frac{24}{24+5\sqrt{3}})$
$tan( \alpha - \beta )= \frac{10-12\sqrt{3} }{ 24+5\sqrt{3}}$

11x + 6y = 6 then graph the equation

maw [93]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the intercept method of graphing a straight line:

Let x = 0. We get y = 1. This is the y-intercept (0, 1).

Let y = 0. We get x = 6/11. This is the x-intercept (6/11, 0).

Plot both points and then draw a straight line through them.

How much of 30% HCI and 45% HCI would be needed to mix and produce 50 liters of 35% HCI

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

33 1/3 liters of 30%
16 2/3 liters of 45%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the liters of 45% solution needed. Then the amount of HCl in the mix is ...

0.45x +0.30(50 -x) = 0.35(50)

0.15x = 0.05(50) . . . . . simplify, subtract 0.30(50)

x = (0.05/0.15)(50) = 50/3 = 16 2/3 . . . liters of 45% HCl

33 1/3 liters of 30% and 16 2/3 liters of 45% HCl are needed.

_____

<em>Comment on the solution</em>

You may notice that the general solution to a mixture problem of this sort is that the fraction of the mix that is the highest contributor is ...

(mix % - low %) / (high % - low %) = (.35 -.30) / (.45 -.30) = .05/.15 = 1/3
