a. We can calculate all the sides using the given information.

b. 
- Length of a:
The first thing we are going to do is find the value of theta; to do it we are going to use arcosine: 
cos \alpha = \frac{5}{13}
\alpha =arcos( \frac{5}{13} )
\alpha =67.38

Next, since we know the the length of adjacent side of theta is 12, we can use the trig function cosine to find the length of a:
cos( \alpha )= \frac{adjacent.side}{hypotenuse}
cos(67.38)= \frac{12}{a}
a= \frac{12}{cos(67.38)}
a=31.20

- Length of b:
Since we already find the length of a, we just need to use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of b:
b^2=a^2-12^2
b^2=31.20^2-12^2
b= \sqrt{31.20^2-12^2}
b=28.8

- Length of c
We already know the measure of angle theta, so we are going to use the trig function tangent to find the length of b:
tan( \alpha )= \frac{opposite.side}{adjacent.side}
tan(67.38)= \frac{12}{c}
c= \frac{12}{tan(67.38)}
c=5

- Length of d:
Since we already find the length of c, we are going to use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of d:
d^2=c^2+12^2
d^2=5^2+12^2
d= \sqrt{5^2+12^2}
d=13

c. We can conclude that we have all the information we need to find the measures of all the sides of our triangles.

Mahad and Eren made 17 ounces of pizza dough. They used 5/8 of the dough to make a pizza and used the rest to make calzones.
matrenka [14]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  B)  4 2/8 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

After 5/8 of the dough was used for pizza, the remaining amount is ...

  1 -5/8 = 3/8

The difference between the amounts is then ...

  (5/8×17 oz) - (3/8×17 oz) = (5/8 -3/8)×17 oz = 2/8×17 oz = 34/8 oz

  = 4 2/8 oz

Tell the error and leave if you disagree or agree.​
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

9. disagree;

error: he should have divided 60 by 4, not subtracted. So the correct answer is x = 15.

10. disagree;

error: it should be 3x + 2 = 127 (opposite angles)

so x = 125/3
