As soon as I read this, the words "law of cosines" popped
into my head.  I don't have a good intuitive feeling for the
law of cosines, but I went and looked it up (you probably
could have done that), and I found that it's exactly what
you need for this problem.

The "law of cosines" relates the lengths of the sides of any
triangle to the cosine of one of its angles ... just what we need,
since we know all the sides, and we want to find one of the angles.

To find angle-B, the law of cosines says

       b² = a² + c² - 2 a c cosine(B)

B  =  angle-B
b  =  the side opposite angle-B = 1.4
a, c = the other 2 sides = 1 and 1.9

                  (1.4)² = (1)² + (1.9)² - (2 x 1 x 1.9) cos(B)

                 1.96  =  (1) + (3.61)  -  (3.8) cos(B)

Add  3.8 cos(B)  from each side:

                 1.96 + 3.8 cos(B) = 4.61

Subtract  1.96  from each side:

                             3.8 cos(B) =  2.65

Divide each side by  3.8 :

                                  cos(B)  =  0.69737  (rounded)

Whipping out the
trusty calculator:
                                 B  = the angle whose cosine is 0.69737

                                      =  45.784° .

Now, for the first time, I'll take a deep breath, then hold it
while I look back at the question and see whether this is
anywhere near one of the choices ...

By gosh !  Choice 'B' is  45.8° !                    yay !
I'll bet that's it !

Answer:

B) -5, 5, -7, 7           

Step-by-step explanation:

3x² - bx + 2

factor:

(3x - 2 )(x - 1) = 3x² - (5)x + 2      so 5 does work

(3x - 1 )(x - 2) = 3x² - (7)x + 2      so 7 does work

(3x + 2 )(x + 1) = 3x² + 5x +2    =    3x² - (-5)x + 2      so -5 does work

(3x + 1 )(x + 2) = 3x² + 7x + 2   =    3x² - (-7)x + 2      so -7 does work

A triangle has an angle that measures 55°. The other two angles are in a ratio of 11:14. What are the measures of those two angl
koban [17]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  55° : 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the two other angles is ...

  180° -55° = 125°

The sum of the ratio units is 11+14 = 25. Each ratio unit stands for 125°/25 = 5°. Then the other two angles are ...

  11×5° = 55°

  14×5° = 70°
