Can you use a calculator? If yes, then isolate 7) cot 8) tan 2 theta, etc. Then, input the inverse of that trig into the calculator.
Ex. #7 cot theta= -6/5
Then, input arccot (-6/5) (aka inverse cot (-6/5)) into your calculator.
I believe the answer would be A.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
The first thing you must do is notice that <D = <BEA. Mark it that way on your diagram.
The Second thing you need to notice is that <BEA and <A are equal because <A and <D are marked as equal.
So both the large triangle and the small one are isosceles. because 2 of the 3 angles are equal.
Now are you ready for this? That means that BA = 10 because BA is opposite one of the 2 equal angles in the small triangle. So now you are ready to set up a proportion.
Proportion
AB / AC = AE/AD
Givens
AB = 10
AC = 18
AE = 8
AD = x + 8
Solution
Substitute the Givens into the Proportion.
10/18 = 8/(x + 8) Cross multiply
10(x + 8) = 8 * 18 Simplify both sides
10x + 80 = 144 Subtract 80 from both sides
10x + 80 - 80 = 144 - 80
10x = 64 Divide by 10
10x/10 = 64/10
Answer: x = 6.4
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
if b=4 and a=2, then you substitute both those values into the equation, turning (4b - a) into (4*4 - 2), then you use order of operations, meaning you multiply the 4 times the 4, which turns it into 16-2, and then subtract 2 to finally reach your answer of 14.
