Answer:

  114.8°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles can be found using the Law of Cosines. It tells you ...

  c² = a² +b² -2ab·cos(C)

Then angle C can be found to be ...

  C = arccos((a² +b² -c²)/(2ab)) = arccos((20² +25² -38²)/(2·20·25))

  C = arccos(-419/1000) ≈ 114.77°

The measure of the obtuse angle is about 114.8°.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. draw the parallelogram with side 20cm and 25cm respectively and also the diagonal as well.

2.Clearly it forms a triangle in the parallelogram with three known lengths of side.

3.Using the cosine rule : c^2=b^2+c^2 -2bc cos c to find the obtuse angle.

The engine torque y (in foot-pounds) of one model of car is given by y=−3.75x2+23.2x+38.8, where x is the speed (in thousands of
Stels [109]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the engine torque y (in foot-pounds) of one model of car is given by y=−3.75x^2+23.2x+38.8

The engine speed is at maximum if dy/dx = 0

dy/dx = -2(3.75)x+23.2

dy/dx = -7.5x + 23.2

since dy/dx = 0

0 =  -7.5x + 23.2

7.5x = 23.2

x = 23.2/7.5

x = 3.093

Hence the maximum torque is 3.09 rev/min
