Answer:

7. A = 40.8 deg; B = 60.6 deg; C = 78.6 deg

8. A = 20.7 deg; B = 127.2 deg; C = 32.1 deg

Step-by-step explanation:

Law of Cosines

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab \cos C

You know the lengths of the sides, so you know a, b, and c. You can use the law of cosines to find C, the measure of angle C.

Then you can use the law of cosines again for each of the other angles. An easier way to solve for angles A and B is, after solving for C with the law of cosines, solve for either A or B with the law of sines and solve for the last angle by the fact that the sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180 deg.

7.

We use the law of cosines to find C.

18^2 = 12^2 + 16^2 - 2(12)(16) \cos C

324 = 144 + 256 - 384 \cos C

-384 \cos C = -76

\cos C = 0.2

C = \cos^{-1} 0.2

C = 78.6^\circ

Now we use the law of sines to find angle A.

Law of Sines

\dfrac{a}{\sin A} = \dfrac{b}{\sin B} = \dfrac{c}{\sin C}

We know c and C. We can solve for a.

\dfrac{a}{\sin A} = \dfrac{c}{\sin C}

\dfrac{12}{\sin A} = \dfrac{18}{\sin 78.6^\circ}

Cross multiply.

18 \sin A = 12 \sin 78.6^\circ

\sin A = \dfrac{12 \sin 78.6^\circ}{18}

\sin A = 0.6535

A = \sin^{-1} 0.6535

A = 40.8^\circ

To find B, we use

m<A + m<B + m<C = 180

40.8 + m<B + 78.6 = 180

m<B = 60.6 deg

8.

I'll use the law of cosines 3 times here to solve for all the angles.

Law of Cosines

a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2bc \cos A

b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2ac \cos B

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab \cos C

Find angle A:

a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2bc \cos A

8^2 = 18^2 + 12^2 - 2(18)(12) \cos A

64 = 468 - 432 \cos A

\cos A = 0.9352

A = 20.7^\circ

Find angle B:

b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2ac \cos B

18^2 = 8^2 + 12^2 - 2(8)(12) \cos B

324 = 208 - 192 \cos A

\cos B = -0.6042

B = 127.2^\circ

Find angle C:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab \cos C

12^2 = 8^2 + 18^2 - 2(8)(18) \cos B

144 = 388 - 288 \cos A

\cos C = 0.8472

C = 32.1^\circ

Hypotenuse of triangle with sides of 36 and 39
worty [1.4K]

Answer: The hypotenuse is 53 (approximately)

Step-by-step explanation: In this question we shall apply the Pythagoras theorem which states that;

AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2

Where AC is the hypotenuse and AB and BC are the two other sides. Having been given that the two other sides are 36 and 39 units respectively, the hypotenuse is now,

AC^2 = 36^2 + 39^2

AC^2 = 1296 + 1521

AC^2 = 2817

Add the square root sign to both sides of the equation

AC = 53.0754

Therefore the hypotenuse is approximately 53 units.

Anettt [7]

Answer:

n=3.5 a=1.41 units  a'=4.95 units b3 units b'10.5 units c2.24 units c'=7.83 units

Step-by-step explanation:

This answer assumes that n = 3.5. The ratio of each side length on  to the corresponding side length on  is equal to 3.5. For example, a′ = 3.5a. The ratio is equal to the scale factor, n.

Which of the following options represents a logical first step that can be used
steposvetlana [31]

Answer: Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we can start with the relation

cos(x)^2 + sin(x)^2 = 1

multiply both sides by cos(x)

cos(x) = cos(x)^3 + sin(x)^2*cos(x) = cos(x)^2*(cos(xI + sin(x)^2/cos(x))

now we can replace sin(x)/cos(x) = tg(x)

cos(x) = cos(x)^2*(cos(x) + sin(x)*tan(x))

So the correct option is B
