Answer:

  38.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle solver can give an answer easily. The angle is 38.5°.

__

The law of cosines can be written to solve for an unknown angle C opposite side 'c' and flanked by sides 'a' and 'b'.

  C = arccos((a² +b² -c²)/(2ab))

Here, we have a=35, b=48, c=30, so the angle is ...

  C = arccos((35² +48² -30²)/(2·35·48)) = arccos(2629/3360) ≈ 38.515°

The angle the cable makes with the pole is about 38.5°.

In this question , we have to find the postulate that is illustrated for the real numbers

5+(-5) = 0

The postulate is Additive inverse postulate which states that

a+ (-a) =0

Where a is the real number and -a is the opposite of a. It states that , if opposite of a number is added with the number, the result is 0 .

Translate the figure 5 units up. Then decide if each statement about translated figures is true or false,
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

First, second, and third are true.

Fourth is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. When we're translating a figure, everything about the figure stays the same except its location on the coordinate plane. The side lengths, the angle measures, and parallel sides will not change.

2. The fourth one is false because two figures/objects are congruent if they have the same shape and size. Since translation only affects the location on a coordinate plane, the original and final figure are congruent.
