Answer:

Solution to Problem 1:

Use the fact that the sum of all three angles of a triangle is equal to 180 o to write an equation in C.

A + B + C = 180 o

Solve for C.

C = 180 o - (A + B) = 43 o

Use sine law to write an equation in b.

a / sin(A) = b / sin(B)

Solve for b.

b = a sin (B) / sin(A) = (approximately) 5.4 cm

Use the sine law to write an equation in c.

a / sin(A) = c / sin(C)

Solve for c.

c = a sin (C) / sin(A) = (approximately) 7.1 cm

Problem 2

The angle of elevation to the top C of a building from two points A and B on level ground are 50 degrees and 60 degrees respectively. The distance between points A and B is 30 meters. Points A, B and C are in the same vertical plane. Find the height h of the building(round your answer to the nearest unit).

diagram problem 2

Solution to Problem 2:

We consider triangle ABC. Angle B internal to triangle ABC is equal to

B = 180 o - 60 o = 120 o

In the same triangle, angle C is given by.

C = 180 o - (50 o + 120 o) = 10 o

Use sine law to find d.

d / sin(50) = 30 / sin(10)

Solve for d.

d = 30 *sin(50) / sin(10)

We now consider the right triangle.

sin (60) = h / d

Solve for h.

h = d * sin(60)

Substitute d by the expression found above.

h = 30 *sin(50) * sin(60) / sin(10)

Use calculator to approximate h.

h = (approximately) 115 meters.

Problem 3

A triangle ABC has side a = 12 cm, side b = 19 cm and angle A = 80 o (angle A is opposite side a). Find side c and angles B and C if possible.(round answers to 1 decimal place).

Solution to Problem 3:

Use sine law to write an equation in sin(B).

a / sin(A) = b / sin(B)

Solve for sin(B).

sin (B) = (b / a) sin(A) = (19/12) sin(80) = (approximately) 1.6

No real angle B satisfies the equation

sin (B) = 1.6

The given problem has no solution.

Problem 4

A triangle ABC has side a = 14 cm, side b = 19 cm and angle A = 32 o (angle A is opposite side a). Find side c and angles B and C if possible.(round answers to 1 decimal place).

Solution to Problem 4

Use sine law to write an equation in sin(B).

a / sin(A) = b / sin(B)

Solve for sin(B).

sin (B) = (b / a) sin(A) = (19/14) sin(32) = (approximately) 0.7192

Two angles satisfy the equation sin (B) = 0.7192 and the given problem has two solutions

B1 = 46.0 o and B2 = 134 o

Solution 1: Find angle C1 corresponding to B1

C1 = 180 - B1 - A = 102 o

Solution 1: Find side c1 corresponding to C1

c1 / sin(C1) = a / sin(A)

c1 = 14 sin(102) / sin(32) = (approximately) 25.8 cm

Solution 2: Find angle C2 corresponding to B2

C2 = 180 - B2 - A = 14 o

Solution 2: Find side c2 corresponding to C2

c2 / sin(C2) = a / sin(A)

c1 = 14 sin(14) / sin(32) = (approximately) 6.4 cm

Exercises

1. A triangle ABC has angle A = 104 o, angle C = 33 o and side c = 9 m. Solve the triangle ABC by finding angle B and sides a and b.(round answers to 1 decimal place).

2. Redo problem 2 with the distance between points A and B equal to 50 meters.

Solutions to Above Exercises

1. B = 43 o, a = 16.0 m , b = 11.3 m

2. 191 meters.

#66 Dimensions of matrix: The dimensions of a matrix are
[number of rows (across) x number of columns (up and down)]
There is 1 row and 4 columns, hence the dimensions of [1 x 4]

#71: use factor/label conversion method.
480 minutes    1 hour            480 hours        8 hours
                     * --------------  = --------------  = 
                       60 minutes      60 minutes

#72: common difference is how you get from one number to the next in the sequence. So from 42 to 38, you subtract 4, and the pattern is subtract 4 for the whole sequence. So the common difference <em></em>is -4

#38: The midpoint is the middle of the two coordinates, so imagine when used to find mean by drawing a number line like 1 to 10 and the mean would be 5. What did you do? You added 1 and 10 and divided by 2.
You can use the same method for finding midpoints on the coordinate plane.
The formula for midpoint is <span><span>(<span><span>x1+x</span>2</span>)</span>,<span>(<span><span>y1+y</span>2</span>). So it's (5 + 2) , (8 + 7) which equals (7, 15).

#35: This is the same 3* x^(9*1/5) = 3*x^9/5
Remember square root of a number is the same as that number to the 1/2, and the same with all other roots. The fifth root of x is the same as x to the power of 1/5

#36: This is the same as 36*( x^5*3/2 * y^3*3/2), since you can put the power to each of the numbers almost like the distributive property.
= 36 * (x^15/2 * y^9/2)

Well #20 is <em>extremely</em><em> </em>easy. The solutions are anything that is shaded in the blue

The rightmost question is the same thing as #20. Anything not shaded is not a solution.

</span></span>
#64: Just like you learned in elementary school, the median is the middle number. The middle number is 10<span>

Find the distance between the points (-16,10) and (2,-14)
Andrei [34K]

Answer:  The distance is 30

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance between the two points,find the difference between the x and y values, square them and add them to find their square root.

10 - (-14) = 24

-16 - 2=   -18

24^2 + 18^2 = d^2  where d is the distance

576 + 324 = d^2  

900 =d^2

d = \sqrt{900}

d= 30
