Answer:

Area of the rectangle(A) is given by:

A =lw

where, l is the length and w is the width of the rectangle.

As per the statement:

A rectangle has an area of 72 in²

⇒A = 72 in²

then;

lw = 72

It is given that:

The length and the width of the rectangle are changed by a scale factor of 3.5.

Length of new rectangle become = 3.5l

Width of new rectangle become = 3.5 w

then;

Area of new rectangle  = (Length of new rectangle)(Width of new rectangle)

⇒Area of new rectangle = (3.5l)(3.5w) =12.25(lw)

Substitute the given values we have;

\text{Area of new rectangle} = 12.25 \cdot 72 = 882 in^2

Therefore, the area of the new rectangle is, 882 in²

In a right triangle STR, angle T and R are complementary angles. The value of cos(T) is 9/41. What is the value of sin(R)?
alex41 [277]

Answer: C) 9/41

Step-by-step explanation: From the description, angle S is the right angle. Which means that angles T and R are complementary (they sum to 90 degrees). Because they are complementary, this means the cosine of one angle is equal to the sine of the other angle. If cos(T) is 9/41, then so is sin(R).

18. Two planes left an airport at the same time. One flew north at a set speed and the other
Andre45 [30]

Answer: plane A = 333.33mph

Plane B = 500mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Distance between the two planes = 2400miles.

Plane A flew North

Plane B flew south

Solution:

Let v represent plane A.

Let 2v represent plane B.

Distance between the two plane

v + 1.5* v = 3*v

7.5v = 2500miles

v = 333.33mph

Plane B has one and half times the speed of plane A

= 1.5 * 333.33

= 500mph
