Answer:

Solution given;

In right angled triangle with respect to θ

perpendicular: opposite side: [P]=12

base:adjacent:[b]=8

hypotenuse [h]=?

cosθ=?

According to the Pythagoras law

h²=p²+b²

h²=12²+8²

h=\sqrt{208}

h=4\sqrt{13}

Now

we have

Cos θ=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

Cos θ=\frac{8}{4\sqrt{13}}

by rationalising it

Cos θ= \frac{2\sqrt{13}}{\sqrt{13}×\sqrt{13}}

Cos θ= \frac{2\sqrt{13}}{13}

is a required answer.

<u>Trigonometry</u>

[Right Triangles Only] Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

  • a is a leg
  • b is another leg
  • c is the hypotenuse

[Right Triangles Only] SOHCAHTOA

[Right Triangles Only] cosθ = adjacent over hypotenuse

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify variables</em>

<em>a</em> = 8

<em>b</em> = 12

<em>c</em>

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>c</u></em>

  1. Substitute in variables [Pythagorean Theorem]:                                          8² + 12² = c²
  2. Evaluate exponents:                                                                                       64 + 144 = c²
  3. Add:                                                                                                                 208 = c²
  4. [Equality Property] Square root both sides:                                                  √208 = c
  5. Rewrite:                                                                                                           c = √208
  6. Simplify:                                                                                                           c = 4√13

<u>Step 3: Define Pt. 2</u>

<em>Identify variables</em>

Angle θ

Adjacent leg = 8

Hypotenuse = 4√13

<u>Step 4: Find</u>

  1. Substitute in variables [Cosine]:                                                                   \displaystyle cos\theta = \frac{8}{4\sqrt{13}}
  2. Rationalize:                                                                                                     \displaystyle cos\theta = \frac{2\sqrt{13}}{13}

The value of x is? What is the value of x in this problem?
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

x=96°

Step-by-step explanation:

For the upper left angle, we know that they are supplementary, so we can find the first angle of the triangle by

180-130=50

For the bottom right angle, we know that they are supplementary, so we can find that angle by

180-134=46

As a triangle has 180 degrees, we can subtract the values of the other two angles to find the final upper right angle.

180-50-46=84

Lastly, The upper right angle and x are supplementary so we can find x by subtracting the angle from 180

180-84=x\\x=96

During the two hours of the morning rush from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m., 100 customers per hour arrive at the coffee shop. The coffee sh
Anastaziya [24]

So, 40 Customers are waiting at 10 A.M.

According to statement

Number of customers arrives at coffee shop per hour = 100

Capacity of shop for per minute per customer = 0.8 minute

Capacity of shop for customers per hour = 80

Find number of customers are by

Queue growth rate = Demand - Capacity

Put the values in the formula and find the growth rate

So,

Queue growth rate= 100 - 80 = 20.

Length of queue at 10 a.m. = 2 × 20 = 40.

So, 40 Customers are waiting at 10 A.M.
