Answer:

b= sin(43°) * 8 / sin(55°) ≈ 6.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Regarding the law of sines, each angle corresponds to the side opposite of it. Here, that means that the 82 degree angle is opposite of side c (so they correspond) and that the 55 degree angle corresponds to the side with 8cm. However, we are trying to find the length of side b. Therefore, assuming that the side with 8cm is side A, if we know that

sin A / a = sinB/b = sin C / C

= sin(55°)/8 = sinB/b = sin(82°) / c, we can take c out of the equation to get

sin(55°)/8 = sinB/b

If we know sinB, we can multiply both sides by 8 to remove a denominator to get

sin(55°) * b / 8 = sinB

multiply both sides by 8 to remove the other denominator to get

sin(55°) * b = sinB * 8

divide both sides by sin(55°) to isolate the b

b = sinB * 8/sin(55°).

Therefore, if we know sinB, we can figure out the length of b.

Because the angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees, we can say that

180 = 82 + 55 + angle B

180 = 137 + B

subtract both sides by 137 to isolate B

43 = B

b= sin(43°) * 8 / sin(55°) ≈ 6.7

Which statement is true about the function
Lana71 [14]
You solve for the domain by setting the radicand less than or equal to 0 and solving for x.  Dividing by a -x, we switch the sign so we have that the domain is less than or equal to 0, or all negative numbers.  We know that it breaks every law in math to have a negative radicand with an even index, so if the domain is all negative values of x, taking a negative of a negative gives us a positive.  The negative sign OUTSIDE the radical means you are flipping the graph upside down.  So instead of having a range of y is greater than or equal to 0 as does the parent graph, you have flipped it upside down so it heads more negative in regards to the range.  Therefore, the domain and the range both have the same sign, thee last choice from above.

What is the formula for lineal equetion​
Gwar [14]

Answer:

y=mx+c

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear equation means the equation of straight line.

The formula for equation of straight line in slope intercept form is y=mx+c

where, m is the slope of line and c is the y intercept

The formula for equation of straight line in double intercept form is x/a+y/b=1

The formula for equation of straight line in normal form is xcos α + y cos α=p

There are more formulas bur assuming you are asking for the general representation of the straight-line equation, it is y=mx+c.

Tennis balls with a diameter of 2.5 in.are sold in cans of three. The can is a cylinder. What is the volume of the space in the
Alexxandr [17]

Using 3.14 for PI.

The radius of a ball and the can is half the diameter = 1.25

The height of the can is the height of 3 diameters = 7.5

Volume of one tennis ball:

4/3 x PI x 1.25^3 = 8.18 cubic inches.

Volume of 3 tennis balls: 3 x 8.18 = 24.54 cubic inches.

Volume of can:

PI x 1.25^2 x 7.5 = 36.80 cubic inches.

Space = 36.80 - 24.54 = 12.26 cubic inches.
