1. Given any triangle ABC with sides BC=a, AC=b and AB=c, the following are true :
i) the larger the angle, the larger the side in front of it, and the other way around as well. (Sine Law) Let a=20 in, then the largest angle is angle A.
ii) Given the measures of the sides of a triangle. Then the cosines of any of the angles can be found by the following formula:
a^{2}=b ^{2}+c ^{2}-2bc(cosA)
2.
20^{2}=9 ^{2}+13 ^{2}-2*9*13(cosA) 400=81+169-234(cosA) 150=-234(cosA) cosA=150/-234= -0.641
3. m(A) = Arccos(-0.641)≈130°,
4. Remark: We calculate Arccos with a scientific calculator or computer software unless it is one of the well known values, ex Arccos(0.5)=60°, Arccos(-0.5)=120° etc
9) Because the total number of pencils is 180 and you will use them up in 30 days, the equation will have to equal 0 total pencils when 30 is substituted in for the time factor, or x. This already takes our choice 3 because it doesn’t meet this criteria.
The answer to how many pencils in 20 days could be answered by plugging in 20 for x. Choice 4 cannot work because it results in a negative number of pencils. Choices 1 and 2 use the same equation, so by plugging in 20 it is clear choice 2 is the correct answer.
10) A line parallel to the go en equation would have the same slope, -3, which means choices 1 and 4 are out. Plug in (-2,5) into both choices 2 and 3. Plugging -2 into x in choice 2 gives -5, and in choice 3 gives 5 for the y value. Therefore choice 3 is correct.
Answer: 270
Step-by-step explanation:
Length x width= area
15x 18= area
15 x 18= 279
Answer:
interval in minutes = (24.88, 35.12)
Step-by-step explanation:
we can use the following formula:
interval = population mean ± (z · σ)
- population mean = 30 minutes
- z for 80% = 1.28
- σ = 4 minutes
interval = 30 minutes ± (1.28 · 4 minutes)
interval in minutes = (30 - 5.12), (30 + 5.12) = (24.88, 35.12)
