3) Will give you a decimal but ro7nd up to 10
Obtuse triangle Pythagorean Theorem
c² > a² + b²
20² > x² + 3x²
400 > 4x²
<u>÷4 ÷4</u>
<u> 100 > x²</u>
10 > x
400 > 4(7.1)²
400 > 4(50.41)
400 > 201.64
The greatest possible value of x is 7.10

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question we're going to use trigonometric identities and good ol' Pythagoras theorem.
a) Firstly, sec(θ)=52. we're gonna convert this to cos(θ) using:
we can substitute the value of sec(θ) in this equation:
and solve for for cos(θ)
side note: just to confirm we can find the value of θ and verify that is indeed an acute angle by
b) since right triangle is mentioned in the question. We can use:
we know the value of cos(θ)=1\52. and by comparing the two. we can say that:
- length of the adjacent side = 1
- length of the hypotenuse = 52
we can find the third side using the Pythagoras theorem.
- length of the opposite side = √(2703) ≈ 51.9904
we can find the sin(θ) using this side:
and since
