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.

Substitute answers in, a = 3 and b = 2.

(3^2 - 2^2)/(3+2)
= (9-4)/5
= 5/5

In the figure, angle D measures 45° and angle E measures 87°. What is the measurement of angle H? 42°
Vinvika [58]
<span>The complete question is shown in the attached image

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
measure angle H = 42</span>°<span>

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
<u>There is a theorem that states that:</u>
"In a triangle, the measure of the exterior angle is equal to the sum of the measures of the two non-adjacent angles to the exterior angle"

<u>In the given, we have:</u>
angle E is an exterior angle to triangle DFH
The two non-adjacent angles to angle E are angles D and H

<u>Based on the above rule:</u>
measure angle E = measure angle D + measure angle H

<u>We are given that:</u>
angle E = 87</span>°<span>
angle D = 45</span>°<span>

<u>Substitute with the givens in the above rule and solve for the measure of angle H as follows:</u>
angle E = angle D + angle H
87</span>°<span> = 45</span>°<span> + measure angle H
measure angle H = 87</span>°<span> - 45</span>°<span>
measure angle H = 42</span>°<span>

Hope this helps :)</span>

Answer:

increase = 37.38 cm²

You'd like the first way because it took less effort and less chance of a miscalculation.

Step-by-step explanation:

first way:

(just work with the difference in height)

(0.7 x 8.7 x 2) + (0.7 x 18 x 2) = 37.38 cm²

second way:

old total lateral surface area = (31 x 8.7 x 2) + (31 x 18 x 2) = 1655.4

new total lateral surface area = (31.7 x 8.7 x 2) + (31.7 x 18 x 2) = 1692.78

increase = 1692.78 - 1655.4 = 37.38 cm²

Six yards of rope costs $5.50 while four yards costs $4.75
Amiraneli [1.4K]

The best option is the first one (Six yards of rope costs $5.50). It is the lowest unit cost.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

For the given question case, first we should compare the unit costs of the choices provided and evaluate the best option.

Choice 1:

Six yards of rope costs $ 5.50

            \frac{5.50 \text { dollar}}{6 \text { yard }}=0.9167\ dollar/yard

Choice 2:

Four yards costs $ 4.75

           \frac{4.75 \text { dollar}}{4 \text { yard }}=1.1875\ dollar/yard

Thus, the best choice is the first one. Because it is the lowest unit cost.
