Use the triangle inequality theorem.

Add two sides together and see if it is greater than the length of the 3rd side:

28 + 41 = 69 which is greater than 13

41 + 13 = 54 which is greater than 28

28 + 13 = 41 this is equal to the 3rd side length of 41 and not greater than 41

Because 28 + 13 is not greater than 41 those 3 lengths cannot make a triangle.

Find cos(2*ABC) 100POINTS

juin [17]

Answer:

$-\dfrac{7}{25}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Trigonometric Identities</u>

$\cos(A \pm B)=\cos A \cos B \mp \sin A \sin B$

<u>Trigonometric ratios</u>

$\sf \sin(\theta)=\dfrac{O}{H}\quad\cos(\theta)=\dfrac{A}{H}\quad\tan(\theta)=\dfrac{O}{A}$

where:

$\theta$ is the angle
O is the side opposite the angle
A is the side adjacent the angle
H is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle)

Using the trig ratio formulas for cosine and sine:

$\cos(\angle ABC)=\dfrac{3}{5}$

$\sin(\angle ABC)=\dfrac{4}{5}$

Therefore, using the trig identities and ratios:

$\begin{aligned}\implies \cos(2 \cdot \angle ABC) & = \cos(\angle ABC + \angle ABC)\\\\& = \cos (\angle ABC) \cos (\angle ABC) - \sin(\angle ABC) \sin (\angle ABC)\\\\& = \cos^2(\angle ABC)-\sin^2(\angle ABC)\\\\& = \left(\dfrac{3}{5}\right)^2-\left(\dfrac{4}{5}\right)^2\\\\& = \dfrac{3^2}{5^2}-\dfrac{4^2}{5^2}\\\\& = \dfrac{9}{25}-\dfrac{16}{25}\\\\& = \dfrac{9-16}{25}\\\\& = -\dfrac{7}{25} \end{aligned}$

What are the coordinates of its image, J'KL, if this

shtirl [24]

Answer:

$J'(-15,10)\\\\K'(15,10)\\\\L'(0,-20)$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise you must remember that the original figure (before a transformation) is called "Pre-Image" and the one obtained after the transformation is called "Image".

Dilation is defined as a transformation in which the Image and the Pre-Image have the same shape, but different sizes.

If a figure is dilated by a scale factor "k" with respect to the origin, the rule is:

$(x,y)$ → $(kx,ky)$
