Given:
The product of a particular number is 65.
Second value is given by the sum of 8 and the original number.
To find:
The unknown number.
Solution:
Let x be the unknown number.
Then, second number = x+8
The product of a particular number is 65.
Splitting the middle term, we get
Using zero product property, we get
and
and
So, the unknown number is either 5 or -13.
Therefore, the correct option is B.
I have attached a diagram of the triangle described.
We can use any of the trigonometric functions to find angle x. Remember, SOH CAH TOA. And since we're finding the angle, we'll need to use an inverse trigonometric function. For this problem, I'll be using the sine function.
sin(x) = 84 / 85
x = sin^-1(84/85)
x = 81.2026 degrees (feel free to round to however many places you need)
Hope this helps!! :)
