Answer:
The flight was 137.45 miles farther than the direct path.
(make slight changes if directions were given on how to round. This is to the nearest hundredth)
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Law of Cosines.
c^2=
a^2+b^2-2abcosC
You know two sides and the angle in between. The Law of Cosines will give us the third side.
The third side is the direct path of the airplane. We'll add the two other given sides to find the detour route that they took instead.
Then subtract the smaller number (direct route) from the actual route. See image.
The answer is 8/17 because you have to change the fractions to improper fractions then change the division sign to a multiplication sign. Then change the second fraction by flipping the two numbers then multiply and reduce.
Answer:
Triangle
Step-by-step explanation:
A triangle has three vertexes, and therefore three interior angles. Those angles also sum to 180 degrees because of the formula (n-2)*180, where n is the number of sides that a polygon has. Plugging in 3, you get
, or just 180 degrees. Hope this helps!
Answer:
C. This is the graph of a linear function.
Step-by-step explanation:
Linear function because it's not touching each other.
