Answer:

Notice that the values of sine and cosine are between 0 and 1. You found them by dividing the length of a leg by the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse is the longest side, so the numerator is less than the denominator. That means the output of the sine or cosine function is always less than 1.

What indicators predict that a quadratic function will have a complex solution?

zysi [14]

The nature of the roots can be determined by the determinant of the equation. The determinant is:
b² - 4ac

If this is positive, there are two roots
If this is 0, there is only one root
If this is negative, there are complex roots

A carpenter has a piece of wood that is 78 inches long. He wants to cut it so that one piece is five times as long as the other

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

13 and 65

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 5x = 78

(because u want a piece (x) and a piece that's five times longer than x- so 5x. and they should come from a 78 inch piece)

6x = 78

x = 78 / 6

x= 13

(to counter check: 13 * 5 = 65.

65 + 13 = 78 )

In ΔUVW, w = 44 cm, u = 83 cm and ∠V=141°. Find the area of ΔUVW, to the nearest square centimeter.

Tema [17]

Answer:

$Area \approx 1149\ cm^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given that:</u>

ΔUVW,

Side w = 44 cm, (It is the side opposite to $\angle W$ )

Side u = 83 cm (It is the side opposite to $\angle U$ )

and ∠V=141°

Please refer to the attached image with labeling of the triangle with the dimensions given.

Area of a triangle with two sides given and angle between the two sides can be formulated as:

$A = \dfrac{1}{2}\times a\times b\times sinC$

Where a and b are the two sides and

$\angle C$ is the angle between the sides a and b

Here we have a = w = 44cm

b = u = 44cm

and ∠C= ∠V=141

Putting the values to find the area:

$A = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 44\times 83\times sin141\\\Rightarrow A = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 3652 \times sin141\\\Rightarrow A =1826 \times 0.629\\\Rightarrow A \approx 1149\ cm^2$

So, the <em>area </em>of given triangle to the nearest square centimetre is:

$Area \approx 1149\ cm^2$
