Hello,

tg( \frac{a}{2} )=\pm \sqrt{ \dfrac{1-cos(a)}{1+cos(a)} } \\
=\pm \sqrt{ \dfrac{ \dfrac{2}{3} }{ \dfrac{4}{3} } } =\pm \sqrt{ \dfrac{1}{2} } =\pm \dfrac{ \sqrt{2} }{2} \\

+\ if\  \dfrac{a}{2}\  in\ 1\ quadrant\ (or \ 3)}\\

-\ if\  \dfrac{a}{2}\  in\ 2\ quadrant\ (or \ 4)}\\

the coordinates of a pentagon ABCDE are A(-5,4),B (1,4),C(1,-1), D(-2,-5) and E(-5,-1) what is the perimeter of the pentagon
kogti [31]
Perimeter is a continuous line forming the boundary of a closed geometrical figure. perimeter of a pentagon = AB+BC+CD+DE+EA (that is 5 sided figure) 
so my plan is easy but effective, calculate all those distances using those coordinates with the aid of distance formular. then you add those distances algebraically .

30% of number A is 10 more than 20% of number B. 30% of number B is 35 more than 20% of number A. Find the numbers A and B.
anygoal [31]

Answer:

A = 76.85

B =65.28

Step-by-step explanation:

(30/100)A = 10 + (20/100)B

0.3A - 0.2B = 10 ...... equation (i)

(30/100)B + 35 = (20/100)A

0.2A - 0.3B = 35 ........ equation (ii)

From equation (i)

0.3A = 10 - 0.2B

A = (10 - 0.2b) / 0.3

A = 33.33 - 0.67B ........equation (iii)

Put equation (iii) into equation (ii)

0.2(33.33 - 0.67B) - 0.3B = 35

6.67 - 0.134B - 0.3B = 35

0.434B = 35 - 6.67

B = 28.33 / 0.434

B = 65. 275 = 65.28

Put B = 65.28 into equation (i)

0.3A - 0.2B = 10

0.3A - 0.2(65.28) = 10

0.3A - 13.056 = 10

0.3A = 10 + 13.056

A = 23.056/ 0.3

A = 76.85
