Your friend claims that it is possible to draw a right triangle where the cosine of either angle (theta) is exactly the same val
avanturin [10]

Answer:

B. No

Cos \ \theta\neq Cos (90-\theta)\textdegree

Step-by-step explanation:

-A right angle triangle has two complimentary acute angles and one right angle.

-\theta is usually one of the acute angles and is equivalent to 90º minus it's complimentary acute angle.

-Complimentary angles add up to 90º.

#For complimentary angles:

Sin \ \theta=Cos \ (90-\theta)\textdegree\\\\Cos \ \theta=Sin(90-\theta)\textdegree\\\\\therefore Cos \ \theta\neq Cos (90-\theta)\textdegree

The two acute angles cannot have the same Cosine value.

Hence, she's not correct.

Malik is using a cookbook to make a recipe, but he cannot find his
spayn [35]

Answer:

a. Given a number of tablespoons, find the number of cups:

1. Since he needs 2 cups, he can use 2×16=32 tablespoons.

2.Since he needs 1/2 cup, he can use 1/2×16=8 tablespoons.

He needs 1 1/4 cups. 1 cup is 16 tablespoons. 1/4 cup is 1/4×16=4 tablespoons. So altogether he needs 16+4=20 tablespoons.Given a number of cups, find the number of tablespoons:

I already found that 20 tablespoons is 1 1/4 cups. So for 28 tablespoons I need an additional 8 tablespoons, or an additional 1/2 cup. 1 1/4+1/2=1 3/4, so 28 tablespoons gets him 1 3/4 cups. (Alternatively, we might say that 1 tablespoon is 1/16 cups. 1/16×28=28/16, which we can rewrite as 1 12/16 or 1 3/4.)

I notice that to convert from tablespoons to cups, I always divide by 16. 6÷16=6/16, which we can write as 1 3/8. (Alternatively, 1 tablespoon is 1/16 cups. 1/16×6=6/16, which we can rewrite as 1 3/8.)
