Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$14^2 = b^2+6^2\\b^2 = 14^2-6^2\\b = \sqrt{14^2-6^2} \\ = \sqrt{160}\\ = 12.6491106407$

Rounding off to nearest tenth:

b ≈ 12.6

tanθ = 6/12.6

$tan^{-1} (6/12.6)\\ = 25.46334506\\$

Hence angle A ≈ 25.5

Angle B = 180-25.5-90

Angle B = 64.53665494

Hence, Angle B ≈ 64.5

PLEASE HELP ON THIS, Find the area of the shape shown below.

aivan3 [116]

Because this shape has 2 right angles, we can confirm that it has one set of parallel sides and is a trapezoid. Therefore, use the formula for area of a trapezoid, .5(b1+b2)(h)
.5(1+6)(12)
.5(7)(12)

In a lab, a substance was cooked by 42 C over a period of 7 hours at a constant rate. What was the change in temperature each ho

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Given that we have the change in temperature over 7 hours and we are looking for the change over 1 hour, we can divide the total change in temperature by 7. Thus, the change in temperature would be $\frac{42}{7} C^{\circ}$ .

Additionally, this can be solved by equations:

$\dfrac{42 \,\textrm{C}^{\circ}}{7 \,\textrm{hours}} = \dfrac{x \,\textrm{C}^{\circ}}{1 \,\textrm{hour}}$

$1 \,\textrm{hour} \cdot \dfrac{42 \,\textrm{C}^{\circ}}{7 \,\textrm{hours}} = x \,\textrm{C}^{\circ}$

$\dfrac{42}{7} \,\textrm{C}^{\circ} = x \,\textrm{C}^{\circ}$

$\dfrac{42}{7} = x$

By using two different methods, we can determine that the change each hour was equal to 42/7 C° per hour.
