Answer:
cos(θ) = 3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
We can think of this situation as a triangle rectangle (you can see it in the image below).
Here, we have a triangle rectangle with an angle θ, such that the adjacent cathetus to θ is 3 units long, and the cathetus opposite to θ is 4 units long.
Here we want to find cos(θ).
You should remember:
cos(θ) = (adjacent cathetus)/(hypotenuse)
We already know that the adjacent cathetus is equal to 3.
And for the hypotenuse, we can use the Pythagorean's theorem, which says that the sum of the squares of the cathetus is equal to the square of the hypotenuse, this is:
3^2 + 4^2 = H^2
We can solve this for H, to get:
H = √( 3^2 + 4^2) = √(9 + 16) = √25 = 5
The hypotenuse is 5 units long.
Then we have:
cos(θ) = (adjacent cathetus)/(hypotenuse)
cos(θ) = 3/5
Answer:
b = 3 and a = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
You have your given equation:
2a - 3b = -11
a + 3b = 8
You need to find what a and b is.
To find b:
2a - 3b = -11
-2a - 6b = -16
I multiplied a + 3b = 8 by -2. When you multiply a number you have to multiply all of them. You have to choose a number that would cancel out all of a.
So now your equation would look like this when you solve for b:
2a - 3b = -11
-2a - 6b = -16
-------------------
a - 9 = -27 then you divide -9 to -27 which is 3 so b = 3.
To find a:
2a - 3b = -11
a + 3b = 8
I multiplied a + 3b = 8 by -1 and 2a - 3b = -11 by -1 as well.
Your equation will look like this when you solve for a:
-2a + 3b = 11
-1a - 3b = -8
------------------
-3a = 3 then divide -3 to 3 which is -1 so a = -1.
Check to see if you have the correct answer by plugging in the number you got for a and b into the equation and solve.
1. 2(-1) -3(3) = -11
-2 - 9 = -11
2. -1 + 3(3) = 8
-1 + 9 = 8
Answer:
740 or 990
Step-by-step explanation:
It just depends on the height. I don't know if it is 10 or 15. If the height is 15 then 990. If the height is 10 then 740. :)
