In this case we know the three sides of the triangle, then this is a SSS triangle (Side Side Side). To solve this case, first we must use the Law of Cosines, applied to the opposite side to the angle we want to find.
We want to find angle W, and its opposite side is XV, then we apply the Law of Cosines to the side XV:
XV^2=XW^2+WV^2-2(XW)(WV)cos W
Replacing the known values:
116^2=96^2+89^2-2(96)(89)cos W
Solving for W
13,456=9,216+7,921-17,088 cos W
13,456=17,137-17,088 cos W
13,456-17,137=17,137-17,088 cos W-17,137
-3,681=-17,088 cos W
(-3,681)/(-17,088)=(-17,088 cos W)/(-17,088)
0.215414326=cos W
cos W = 0.215414326
Solving for W:
W= cos^(-1) 0.215414326
Using the calculator:
W=77.56016397°
Rounded to one decimal place:
W=77.6°
Answer: Third option 77.6°
ANSWER

EXPLANATION
We want to factor

out of

The first term is already having a factor of

The constant term which is the second term is not having a factor of

so we need to use a trick of multiplying and dividing by the same factor to obtain,

We can now factor

out of the right hand side to obtain,

Let us rewrite the right most fraction using the normal division symbol.

We simplify to obtain,

This further gives us,

We will use the Pythagorean theorem:
8² + 12² = c²
64 + 144 = c²
c = √208 ≈ 14.42
14.42 - 12 = 2.42 in
The direct distance between the lizard and the cactus is 2.42 inches.
Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
Each value only maps out to one value, so that means it is a function.
i dont think you have a whole question down and we need examples of the triangles so please shw examples
