Three ships, A, B, and C, are anchored in the atlantic ocean. The distance from A to B is 36.318 miles, from B to C is 37.674 mi

les, and from C to A is 11.164 miles. Find the angle measurements of the triangle formed by the three ships.

Let us draw the triangle

here the sides a= 37.674 miles

b= 11.164 miles

c= 36.318 miles

Lets use the cosine rule to solve for the angles

( we cannot use the sine law since we do not have the measure of any of the angles)

The cosine law

c^{2} = a^{2} +b^{2} -2ab cos C

Let us plug in the values

(36.318)^{2}  = (37.674)^{2} + (11.164)^{2} - 2(37.674)(11.164). Cos C

1318.997 = 1419.33 + 124.634 - 841.184. Cos C

1318.997 = 1543.964  - 841.184. Cos C

841.184. Cos C = 1543.964-1318.997

841.184. Cos C = 224.967

Cos C = \frac{224.967}{841.184}

cos C = 0.267

C = 74.48°

We can use the sine law to calculate the value of angle A

\frac{a}{SinA} = \frac{c}{Sin C}

\frac{37.674}{Sin A} = \frac{36.318}{Sin 74.48}

Sin A = \frac{37.674. sin 74.48}{36.318}

Sin A = \frac{37.674 X 0.963}{36.318}

Sin A = 0.998

A= sin^{-1} (0.998)

A = 87.38°

Now we can easily find the third angle B by subtracting angle A and C from 180°

B = 180-(74.48 + 87.38)

B = 180-161.86

B = 18.14°

Hence we have all the three angles ( attached figure)

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

∠A = 90  

∠B = 30

∠C = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let ∠B = x

∠A = 3x

∠C = x + 30

Angle sum property of triangle: Sum of three angles of triangle is 180

x + 3x + x + 30 = 180   {Combine like terms}

         5x  + 30 = 180

                    5x = 180 - 30

                   5x = 150

                     x = 130/5

x = 30

∠A = 3*30 = 90

∠C = 30 + 30 = 60

Is this a function please help I’m failing
igomit [66]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation is a function. For a relation to be a function there must be a unique x value for each y value. So this means x's can not repeat, and in this relation, the x-values never repeat. Therefore this is a function.

The inequality 7-2/3x &lt; x-8
romanna [79]
Am going to presume you want it solved.
Please pardon my presumption

7 - (2/3)x < x - 8,    Take all the x to one side of the inequality
-(2/3)x-x <  - 8 -7
-(5/3)x <  - 15    Divide both sides by -5/3  and inequality sign changes

x  >  (-15)/(-5/3)

x >    15  * 3/5        .     5 into 15 is 3.

x  >  3*3

x >    9
