Use pythagorean therom, so A^2 would be 12 since it’s the same lengths the square sides, and C^2 is 20. X= 16

Use a calculator to find the approximate value of sin-1 (0.549)

tatyana61 [14]

This is the concept of algebra, we are required to approximate the arcsin of the value given using a calculator;
sin theta=[opposite]/[hypotenuse]
arcsin is the inverse of sin, thus;
arcsin(0.549)=33.2984
the answer is 33.3984°

What is the value of x if the quadrilateral is a rhombus? please help

stiks02 [169]

In a rhombus, all sides are equal:

5x = 15
and x = 15/5 = 3

(you could have done the same thing with the other side: 5x = 4x +3)

A surveyer wants to find the distance from points A and B and to an inaccessible point C. These three points form a triangle. Be

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

42.8°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sine rule states that for a triangle with lengths of a, b and c and the corresponding angles which are opposite the sides as A, B and C, then the following rule holds:

$\frac{a}{sin(A)}=\frac{b}{sin(B)} =\frac{c}{sin(C)}$

Given that points A, B and C forms a triangle with angle A = 65°, distance from A-to-C = 90 m and the distance from B to C = 120 m.

The distance from A to C is the side opposite to angle B. Hence let b = distance from A to C = 90 m.

The distance from B to C is the side opposite to angle A. Hence let a = distance from B to C = 120 m.

Therefore using sine rule:

$\frac{a}{sin(A)}=\frac{b}{sin(B)} \\\\\frac{120}{sin(65)}=\frac{90}{sin(B)} \\\\sin(B)=\frac{90*sin(65)}{120} \\\\sin(B) =0.6797\\\\B=sin^{-1}(0.6797)\\\\B=42.8^o$
