Answer:

9 and 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem. One of the most common Pythagorean triples is 3, 4, 5 with 3 and 4 the legs and 5 the hypoenuse. That will make 9, 12, 15 anotther trible because you are tripling the side lengths. 12-9=3 so this triangle works.

Mr. Rodriguez has only $62.50 to spend at a clothing store. He wants to buy a shirt that costs $35, including tax and some brace
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

  • 5 bracelets

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

  • 35 + 5.50x = 62.50

Part B

  • 5.50x = 62.50 - 35
  • 5.50x = 27.50
  • x = 27.50/5.50
  • x = 5

Given the diagram below, what is cos(45*)? <br><br> A.<br><br><br> B.<br><br><br> C.<br><br><br> D.
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

The answer is option B

Step-by-step explanation:

To find cos 45° we must first find the adjacent and the hypotenuse

Let the adjacent be x

Let the hypotenuse be h

To find the adjacent we use tan

tan ∅ = opposite / adjacent

From the question

the opposite is 9

So we have

tan 45 = 9 / x

x tan 45 = 9

but tan 45 = 1

x = 9

Since we have the adjacent we use Pythagoras theorem to find the hypotenuse

That's

h² = 9² + 9²

h² = 81 + 81

h² = 162

h = √162

h = 9√2

Now use the formula for cosine

cos∅ = adjacent / hypotenuse

The adjacent is 9

The hypotenuse is 9√2

So we have

cos 45 = 9/9√2

We have the final answer as

<h3 /><h3>cos 45 = 1 / √2</h3>

Hope this helps you
