Answer:
m∠Q ≈ 53°
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the measure of ∠Q, the law of cosines will need to be used. Lowercase letters represent the side lengths, while upper case letters represent angles.
In this situation, 'A' will be ∠Q. Therefore:
17² = 18² + 20² -2(18)(20)cosQ
Simplify:
289 = 324 + 400 -2(360)cosQ
Continue simplifying down:
-435 = -720cosQ
Divide both sides by '-720':
0.604 = cosQ
m∠Q ≈ 52.83 or 53° rounded to the nearest whole degree.
A.
(0,00
(2.6,7.9)
(4.8,12.4)
(9.7,15.1)
b.
well, the points don't look like they are on the line but they actually are (plot twist)
so
since (0,0) is on th egarph
0=a(0)²+b(0)+c
0=c
so
f(x)=ax²+bx+0 or
f(x)=ax²+bx
find a and b
sub points
(2.6,7.9)
7.9=a(2.6)²+b(2.6)
7.9=6.76a+2.6b
(4.8,12.4)
12.4=a(4.8)²+b(4.8)
12.4=23.04a+4.8b
use those 2 equations
7.9=6.76a+2.6b
12.4=23.04a+4.8b
eliminate b
multiply first equation by -4.8 and 2nd by 2.6 and add them
-37.92=-32.448a-12.48b
32.24=59.904a-12.48b +
-5.68=27.456a+0b
-5.68=27.456a
divide both sides by 27.456
(-5.68/27.456)=a
find b
12.4=23.04a+4.8b
12.4=(-130.8672/27.456)+4.8b
12.4+(130.8672/27.456)=4.8b
(12.4+(130.8672/27.456))/4.8=b
da equation is
c. the roots are found with your calculator
the roots are at x=0 and x=17.287323943662
so very close to the target but not exactly on it
if the target has a radius of 0.287323943662 or more then it will hit the target
