Answer:
The n th of the given sequence is
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1</u> :-
Given sequence is 20,14,8,2,.......this sequence in arithmetic progression but this sequence is decreasing sequence.
given first term is 20 and difference is
now the nth term of given sequence is
by using formula
final answer:-
<u>verification</u>:-
put n=1 we get first term is 20
put n=2 we get second term is 14
put n=3 we get third term is 8
put n=4 we get fourth term is 2
so the n th term of sequence is
Answer:68.3 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram of the triangle ABC is shown in the attached photo. We would determine the length of side AB. It is equal to a. We would apply the cosine rule which is expressed as follows
c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2abCos C
Looking at the triangle,
b = 75 miles
a = 80 miles.
Angle ACB = 180 - 42 = 138 degrees. Therefore
c^2 = 80^2 + 75^2 - 2 × 80 × 75Cos 138
c^2 = 6400 + 5625 - 12000Cos 138
c^2 = 6400 + 5625 - 12000 × -0.7431
c^2 = 12025 + 8917.2
c = √20942.2 = 144.7
To determine A, we will apply sine rule
a/SinA = b/SinB = c/SinC. Therefore,
80/SinA = 144.7/Sin 138
80Sin 138 = 144.7 SinA
SinA = 53.528/144.7 = 0.3699
A = 21.7 degrees
Therefore, theta = 90 - 21.7
= 68.3 degees
