Answer:

≈ 33°

Step-by-step explanation:

So, first, you can draw a visual. Refer to the image attached below:

Using this info, you can use trigonometric ratios. Recall that:

tangent = opposite side/adjacent side

sine = opposite side/ hypotenuse

cosine = adjacent side/hypotenuse

You can clearly see that you have an opposite side and a given hypotenuse. This means we'll be using sine.

So:

sinX = \frac{150}{275}

However, we're not trying to find sinX, we're trying to find X.

So we would have to use inverse sine, which would then be:

X = sin-1 (\frac{150}{275} )

Put this into your calculator, and:

X ≈ 33.05573115...

If c(x)=5/x-2 and d(x)=x+3, what is the domain of (cd)(x)?
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The domain is all Real x except x = 2 .

Step-by-step explanation:

(cd)(x) = ( 5 / x-2) * x+3

=  5(x+3)/(x-2)

The domain is all Real x except x = 2 .

(because when x = 2 (cd)(x) is undefined).

If you add the two equations together,
Ex:
-3x-4y=2
+ 3x+4y=-3
