Answer:

64°

Step-by-step explanation:

If two angles add up to give 90°, that are said to be complementary. One is a complement of the other.

Therefore, given that the measure of an angle, angle A = 26°, the measure of the complement of angle A = 90 - 26 = 64°.

The measure of the complement of angle A, is 64°.

noname [10]

Imagine that we cut the cone in half with a vertical plane. In this plane we'd see points a, b and c. We need to find the measure of angle bca, and then double that angle, to obtain the answer to this problem.

Note that tan (angle bca) = opp / adj = 2 / 6, or 1/3, or 0.333...

Working backwards to find angle bca, we use the inverse tangent function:

arctan 0.3333.. = approx. 0.322 radians, or 18.435 degrees.

Doubling that gives us the measurement of the angle formed between the line segments: 2(18.435 deg) = 36.9 degrees, approximately.

Tanya [424]

The information above is shown in the normal distribution curve shown below

Step 1 : Find the z-score for 5 hours
$z= \frac{5-7}{1.7} =-1.18$ rounded to 2 dp

Step 2: Read the value of z-score on the z-table
As shown in the second picture, the value z at -1.18 is 0.1190

Step 3: The proportion can be written in percentage form which is 11.90% rounded to 12% to nearest whole number
