Answer:

c ≈ 6.08 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Your question is how to solve for a missing side length of a triangle when given 2 sides length and an angle. The side length can be solved using the cosine rule . We use cosine rule to find the length of a side of a triangle when given two sides and an included angle.

The cosine rule formula for finding a side length are as follows

c² = a² + b² - 2ab cosC

b² = a² + c² - 2ac cosB

c² = a² + b² - 2ab cosC

Using cosine rule

c² = 4² + 3² - 2 × 4 × 3 cos 120°

c² = 16 + 9 - 24 cos 120°

c² = 25 - 24 (-0.5)

c² = 25 + 12

c² = 37

square root both sides

c = √37

c = 6.0827625303

c ≈ 6.08 m

Which expression could be used to determine the reduction of -4 and 3 1/4
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

The expression that could be used is (-4)(3) + (-4)(\frac{1}{4}) ⇒ B

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise the distributive property:

<em>The product of a number and the sum of 2 other numbers equal to the sum of the products of the number with the other 2 numbers</em>

  • a(b + c) = ab + ac

We will use this rule to solve the question

∵ The product of -4 and 3\frac{1}{4} = -4 × 3\frac{1}{4}

→ We can right 3\frac{1}{4}  as (3 + \frac{1}{4} )

∵ 3\frac{1}{4} = (3 + \frac{1}{4} )

∴ -4 × 3\frac{1}{4} = -4(3 + \frac{1}{4} )

→ By using the rule above

∵ -4(3 + \frac{1}{4} ) = (-4)(3) + (-4)(\frac{1}{4})

∴ -4 × 3\frac{1}{4}  = (-4)(3) + (-4)(\frac{1}{4})

∴ The expression that could be used is (-4)(3) + (-4)(\frac{1}{4})

£100 in the ratio 3:2
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

66.66 (other currency)

Step-by-step explanation:

If every £3 represents 2 of another currency, you just need to figure out how many groups of £3 are in £100 (so £100/£3 = 33.33). Now multiply this value by 2 to get the equivalent of £100 in another currency.
