Answer:

∠VUW

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle is a three sided polygon with three angles. Types of triangles are obtuse, scalene, isosceles, equilateral and so on.

In triangle VUW, since VU = WU, hence it is an isosceles triangle. In an isosceles triangle, two sides of the triangle are equal.

The size of an angle depends on its opposite side, the higher the opposite side the higher the angle. Since In triangle VUW, VU = 9, WU = 9, VW = 5. Since VW is the smallest side, the angle opposite to VW is the smallest angle.

Hence the smallest angle = ∠VUW

My Notes The displacement from equilibrium of an oscillating weight suspended by a spring is given by y(t) = 1 4 cos(5t) where y

ikadub [295]

Answer:

y(0) = 0.25 feet

$y(\frac{1}{4}) = 0.0789 \text{ feet}$

$y(\frac{1}{2}) =-0.2003 \text{ feet}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

The displacement from equilibrium of an oscillating weight suspended by a spring =

$y(t) = \displaystyle\frac{1}{4} \cos(5t)$

where y is the displacement in feet and t is the time in seconds.

Here, cos is in radians.

1) t = 0

$y(0) = \displaystyle\frac{1}{4} \cos(5(0)) = \frac{1}{4} \cos(0) = \frac{1}{4}(1) = \frac{1}{4}$

y(0) = 0.25 feet

2) t = $\frac{1}{4}$

$y(\displaystyle\frac{1}{4}) = \displaystyle\frac{1}{4} \cos(5(\frac{1}{4})) = \frac{1}{4} \cos(1.25) = \frac{1}{4}(0.31532236) =0.07883059$

$y(\frac{1}{4}) = 0.0789 \text{ feet}$

3) t = $\frac{1}{2}$

$y(\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}) = \displaystyle\frac{1}{4} \cos(5(\frac{1}{2})) = \frac{1}{4} \cos(2.5) = \frac{1}{4}(-0.80114362) = -0.200285905$

$y(\frac{1}{2}) =-0.2003 \text{ feet}$

The negative sign indicates the opposite direction of displacement.

A new cell tower is being constructed and needs a guy-wire connected 180 feet up the tower and it needs to make an angle of 52°

nevsk [136]

Answer:

228.42 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for this question, we would be applying the Trigonometric function of Sine.

Sin theta = Opposite/Hypotenuse

Theta = 52°

Opposite = 180ft

Hypotenuse = Length of the wire = x

Hence:

sin 52 = 180/x

x = 180/sin 52

x = 228.42327871 ft

Approximately = 228.42 ft

DO U KNOW SLOPE??? PLZ HELP

IgorLugansk [536]

To calculate slope; rise/run

Triangle ABC: run-1 rise-5 slope-5

5 rise/ 1 run (5/1)=5

Triangle DEF: run-2 rise 10 slope-5

10 rise/ 2 run (10/2)=5

B. They are equal because the two triangles are similar

X=2y=14 and x-3y=-11

levacccp [35]

X - 2y= 14
x - 3y= - 11 | * ( -1)

x - 2y = 14
-x + 3y= 11
----------------
/ y= 25

x - 2*25= 14
x - 50 =14
x= 14+50
x=64
