Find the length of AC round to the nearest hundred
1 answer:
Answer:
Option B. 9.11
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the length of line AB, we must first of all calculate the value of θ as shown in the attached photo.
The value of θ can be obtained as follow:
θ + 39° + 120° = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle)
θ + 159° = 180°
Collect like terms
θ = 180° – 159°
θ = 21°
Thus, we can obtain the length of line AB by using sine rule as illustrated below:
b/Sine B = c/Sine C
b = 16
Angle B = 39°
Sine C = 21°
c =?
b/Sine B = c/Sine C
16/Sine 39° = c/Sine 21°
Cross multiply
c × Sine 39° = 16 × Sine 21°
Divide both side by Sine 39°
c = (16 × Sine 21°) / Sine 39°
c = 9.11
Therefore, the length of line AB is 9.11

Explanation:
Conversion of a quadratic equation from standard form to vertex form is done by completing the square method.
Assume the quadratic equation to be where x is the variable.
Completing the square method is as follows:
- send the constant term to other side of equal
- divide the whole equation be coefficient of
, this will give
- add
to both side of equality
- Make one fraction on the right side and compress the expression on the left side
- rearrange the terms will give the vertex form of standard quadratic equation
Follow the above procedure will give the vertex form.
(NOTE : you must know that . Use this equation in transforming the equation from step 3 to step 4)
