<h2>Answer:</h2>

∠ABC = 76°

BC = 20.1

CA = 28.0

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Solving the triangle means finding all unknown angles and sides of the triangle.

(i) Two of the angles (∠BCA = 60° and ∠CAB  = 44°) are given. To find the third angle (∠ABC), use one of the theorems stating <em>that the sum of angles of a triangle is equal to 180°.</em>

Therefore, the sum of angles of the triangle ABC is 180°. i.e

∠ABC + ∠BCA + ∠CAB = 180°

=> ∠ABC + 60° + 44° = 180°

=> ∠ABC + 104° = 180°

=> ∠ABC = 180° - 104°

=> ∠ABC = 76°

(ii) One side (BA) of the triangle is given. To get the other sides, we use the sine rule as follows;

=> \frac{sin60}{25} = \frac{sin44}{BC} = \frac{sin76}{CA}

=> \frac{sinBCA}{BA} = \frac{sinCAB}{BC} = \frac{sinABC}{CA}

<em>Substitute the necessary values</em>

\frac{sin60}{25} = \frac{sin44}{BC} = \frac{sin76}{CA}      ---------------------(ii)

(a) To get side BC, use the first two terms of equation (ii)

\frac{sin60}{25} = \frac{sin44}{BC}

<em>Cross multiply</em>

BC x sin 60 = 25 x sin 44

BC x 0.8660 = 25 x 0.6947

0.8660 x BC = 17.3675

BC = \frac{17.3675}{0.8660}

BC = 20.05

=> BC = 20.1 to the nearest tenth

(b) To get CA, use any two terms of equation (ii). Using the first and third terms, we have;

\frac{sin60}{25} = \frac{sin76}{CA}

<em>Cross multiply</em>

CA x sin 60 = 25 x sin 76

CA x 0.8660 = 25 x 0.9703

0.8660 x CA = 24.2575

CA = \frac{24.2575}{0.8660}

CA = 28.01

=> CA = 28.0 to the nearest tenth

Solve the following equation to determine the value of x: 3x + (x + 10) + 5x + (2x + 2) = 56
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

I think x = 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3x + x +10 + 5x + 2x + 2 =56

(3x + x + 5x + 2x) + (10 + 2) = 56 (Combine Like Terms)

11x + 12 = 56

11x + 12 = 56

Step 2: Subtract 12 from both sides.

11x + 12 − 12 = 56 − 12

11x = 44

Step 3: Divide both sides by 11.

11x/11 = 44/11

x = 4

Math Help:<br><br> Which two answers are correct?
EastWind [94]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The odd degree (7) tells you the end behaviors are in opposite directions. The negative leading coefficient (-4) tells you the sign of y will be opposite the sign of x.

For x going toward negative infinity, y goes toward positive infinity.

For x going toward positive infinity, y goes toward negative infinity.
