Given a diagonal with the sides 10 and 15 units, the angle formed between them is 120.
to get the length of the longest diagonal we use the cosine rule which states that;
c^2=a^2+b^2-2abCos(C)
where a,b and c are the sides and C is the angle.
therefore let:
a=15,b=10,C=120,c=?to solve for the length C we shall substitute the values in our formula:
c^2=15^2+10^2-2*15*10 cos 120
c^2=225+100-300cos120
c^2=325-(300*(-0.5))
c^2=325-(-150)
c^2=475
getting the square root of both sides;
sqrt (c^2)=sqrt475
c=21.795
the since this is the opposite side to the largest angle, we therefore conclude that the longer diagonal of the parallelogram is 21.795 units
the answer is a transverse wave
There are approximately five main climate types on earth
If all the ice covering Antarctica , Greenland, and in mountain glaciers around the world were to melt, sea level would rise about 70 meters (230 feet). The ocean would cover all the coastal cities. And land area would shrink significantly. ... Scientists are studying exactly how ice caps disappear.
Carbon tax is a form of pollution tax. It levies a fee on the production, distribution or use of fossil fuels based on how much carbon their combustion emits. ... Because the tax makes using dirty fuels more expensive, it encourages utilities, businesses and individuals to reduce consumption and increase energy efficiency. hope this helps!!!
