Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways to do this.

1. You could make an accurate diagram and measure R. This works but the computer won't like it. However you will know if you are correct. An answer ± 2 degrees would tell you that you are likely correct.

2. The second way is to find <C. Similarity guarantees that <C and <R are equal. The adjacent side to angle C is the second longest line. The second longest line in PQR is the adjacent side of <R.

Naturally we will use the second method, but you ought to try the first method. It's cumbersome but it will teach you how to read the values of triangles to make clear the trig functions.

Tan(C) = opposite over adjacent

Tan(C) = 7 / 9

Tan(C) = .77777777...

<C = tan-1(0.7777777...)

<C = 37.87

<C = 37.9

Luda [366]

Answer: $249.48\ m^2; 369.168\ m^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Cost of white-washing =Rs. 4989.60

Rate =20 per meter square

So, inside area of = $\dfrac{4989.60}{20}=249.48\ m^2$

The surface area of dome= $4\pi\ r^2=249.48$

$4\times 3.142\times r^2=249.48\\r^2=\frac{249.48}{4\times 3.142}=19.85\\r=4.455\ m$

The volume of air in the dome $V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

$V=\frac{4}{3}\cdot 3.142\cdot (4.45)^3\\V=369.17\ m^3$

What is the equation of the line that has a y-intercept of 5 and is parallel to

victus00 [196]

Answer:

A) 2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, turn 2x - y = 16 into 2x - 16 = y by adding the <em>y</em> on both sides and subtracting 16 from both sides.

You'll see that option A is the only option that matches the original function that we're comparing to.

Graphs will always be parallel to each other if they have the same slope, and both these functions have the same slope of 2.
