Answer:

length of side BC = 11.9cm

The complete question found on brainly (ID: 14303570 ) is stated below:

Find the length of side BC.

Give your answer to 1 decimal place.

∠A = 58°

AC = 14cm

Find attached the diagram of the triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram

∠A = 58°

∠B = 90°

AC = 14cm

The triangle is a right angled triangle

To get the length side of BC, we would

apply trigonometry SOHCAHTOA.

In this question the sine ratio would be appropriate since we know the hypotenuse but we are looking for the opposite side (BC).

Sine ratio: Sin58° = opposite/hypotenuse

Sin58° = BC/AC

Sin58° = BC/14

BC = 14sin58°

BC = 14 × 0.8480

BC = 11.9cm

length of side BC = 11.9cm (1 decimal place)

Jamar's teacher told him that one of the reasons he gave on the proof below was incorrect. Which reason did he make the mistake

Kamila [148]

Answer:

Reason given in step 2. is incorrect. It should read; "Distributive Property."

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason given to go from :

2 (3x +4) = 56 to 6x + 8 = 56

is NOT "Multiplication Property of Equality" because one is not multiplying both sides of the equality by a number. The property that is being used is the Distributive Property on the left side of the equation in order to remove the grouping symbols (parenthesis) performing the implied multiplication of the external factor times each term of the binomial in parenthesis.

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4.5b + 8.5c = 175

b + c = 22.......b = 22 - c

4.5(22 - c) + 8.5c = 175

99 - 4.5c + 8.5c = 175

-4.5c + 8.5c = 175 - 99

4c = 76

c = 76/4

c = 19......there are 19 cats

b + c = 22

b + 19 = 22

b = 22 - 19

b = 3 <==== there are 3 birds
