Answer:
26.8°
Step-by-step explanation:
The cosine of an angle is the ratio of the adjacent side of the triangle in which the angle is formed to the hypotenuses side of the triangle. The cosine of the angle gives the ratio of these sides. However, the arc cosine of the ratio gives the angle measured in degrees.
If cos B = 0.8926
then arc cosine 0.8926 which may be expressed as cos-1 0.8926 will give the value of B.
B = cos-1 0.8926
= 26.8°
1760 yards = 1 mile
Therefore we divide 1760 / 440 = 4 laps to run to complete a mile.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Directions
- Draw a circle
- Dear a chord with a length of 24 inside the circle. You just have to label it as 24
- Draw a radius that is perpendicular and a bisector through the chord
- Draw a radius that is from the center of the circle to one end of the chord.
- Label where the perpendicular radius to the chord intersect. Call it E.
- You should get something that looks like the diagram below. The only thing you have to do is put in the point E which is the midpoint of CB.
Givens
AC = 13 inches Given
CB = 24 inches Given
CE = 12 inches Construction and property of a midpoint.
So what we have now is a right triangle (ACE) with the right angle at E.
What we seek is AE
Formula
AC^2 = CE^2 + AE^2
13^2 = 12^2 + AE^2
169 = 144 + AE^2 Subtract 144 from both sides.
169 - 144 = 144-144 + AE^2 Combine
25 = AE^2 Take the square root of both sides
√25 = √AE^2
5 = AE
Answer
The 24 inch chord is 5 inches from the center of the circle.
