132 pounds -> 143 milligrams

1 pound -> 143/132

156 pounds -> 143/132 * 156 = 169 milligrams

In the triangle shown above m∠B = 114°, m∠C = 22°, and b = 12 in. What is the approximate length of side a? A. 15.78 in B. 9.12
Elena L [17]

The approximate length of side a is 9.12 in. The correct option is B. 9.12 in

<h3>Law of Sines </h3>

From the question, we are to determine the approximate length of side a

From the given information, we have that

m∠B = 114°, m∠C = 22°

Thus,

m∠A = 180° - (114° + 22°)

m∠A = 180° - 136°

m∠A = 44°

Now,

From the law of sines, we have that

a/sinA = b/sinB

Then,

a/sin44° = 12/sin114°

a = (12 ×sin44°)/sin114°

a = 9.12 in

Hence, the approximate length of side a is 9.12 in. The correct option is B. 9.12 in

Moesha has 196 pepper plants that she wants to plant in square formation. How many peppers plants should she plant in each row?
miss Akunina [59]

Hey there!!

In order to solve this question, we take the area as 196 as these are the total number of plants to cover a specific place.

The formation must be in a square formation

area of a square = ( s ) ²

s = side

or the number of plants in a row

s² = 196

s = √196

s = 14

There are 14 plants in each row

Hope my answer helps!
