Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Length of two sides of the triangle = 1 and 16 ;

The largest possible whole-number length of the third side would be ;

Recall from triangle inequality theorem; the length of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side. Therefore. The largest possible whole number value the third side could have is:

Assume the third side is the largest :

Then, the third side must be less than the sum of the other two sides ;

Third side < (16 + 1)

Third side < 17

Therefore, the closest whole number lesser than the sum of the other two sides is (17 - 1) = 16

A quotient means division, so you can get rid of the third and fourth choices. It says "opposite" so that means negative. The answer is the second choice: \frac{(-x)^{2} }{3}

70mm times 99mm which gets you to 6390mm

or

210mm times 297mm = 62370mm squared

(Photo attached) Trig question. Please explain and thanks in advance! :)

Answer:

  0.2036

Step-by-step explanation:

u = arcsin(0.391) ≈ 23.016737°

tan(u/2) = tan(11.508368°)

tan(u/2) ≈ 0.2036

__

You can also use the trig identity ...

  tan(α/2) = sin(α)/(1+cos(α))

and you can find cos(u) as cos(arcsin(0.391)) ≈ 0.920391

or using the trig identity ...

  cos(α) = √(1 -sin²(α)) = √(1 -.152881) = √.847119

Then ...

  tan(u/2) = 0.391/(1 +√0.847119)

  tan(u/2) ≈ 0.2036

__

<em>Comment on the solution</em>

These problems are probably intended to have you think about and use the trig half-angle and double-angle formulas. Since you need a calculator anyway for the roots and the division, it makes a certain amount of sense to use it for inverse trig functions. Finding the angle and the appropriate function of it is a lot easier than messing with trig identities, IMO.
