Ok so right now leave the x's alone. Now add/subtract the numbers without variables which would equal to 0 since -1+4 = 3 and 3-3 =0
now 7x+x =8x so 8x is answer
Where the heck did x come from!
First step: name the sides according to geometry standards, namely, the sides are named the same lowercase letter as the opposing angle. A revised diagram is shown.
Second step: we need to know the relationships of the trigonometric functions.
cosine(A)=cos(63) = adjacent / hypotenuse = AC/AB .................(1)
sine(A)=sin(63) = opposite / hypotenuse = CB/AB .......................(2)
We're given AB=7, so
using (1)
AC/AB=cos(63)
AC=ABcos(63)=7 cos(63) = 7*0.45399 = 3.17993 = 3.180 (to three dec. figures)
Using (2)
BC/AB=sin(63)
BC=ABsin(63) = 7 sin(63) = 7*0.89101 = 6.237 (to three dec. figures).
15.04 degrees or answer A is correct.
The Law of Sines is the relationship between the sides and angles of non-right (oblique) triangles . Simply, it states that the ratio of the length of a side of a triangle to the sine of the angle opposite that side is the same for all sides and angles in a given triangle. The formula for it is A=b•sin a/sin b.
You can transform the law of sines formulas to solve some problems of triangulation (solving a triangle). You can use them to find:
The remaining sides of a triangle, knowing two angles and one side.
The third side of a triangle, knowing two sides and one of the non-enclosed angles. In some cases (ambiguous cases) there may be two solutions to the same triangle. If the following conditions are fulfilled, your triangle may be an ambiguous case:
You only know the angle α and sides a and c;
Angle α is acute (α < 90°);
a is shorter than c (a < c);
a is longer than the altitude h from angle β, where h = c * sin(α) (a > c * sin(α)).
I hate useless complicated math lol ;)
5X+7 is the correct answer
