For the given triangle, the value of x equals 30.9892 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
In the triangle, the angle is 40°, the opposite side has a length of 26 units, the adjacent side has a length of x units while the hypotenuse is not given.
To determine the value of x, we determine the value of the tan of the given triangle.
To calculate the tan of angle A we divide the opposite side's length by the the adjacent side's length.
Step 2:
The length of the opposite side = 26 units.
The length of the adjacent side = x units.
So x measures 30.9892 units.
30 seconds, half a minute.
The answer is -2,686
let me tell you why !
the answer would be negative, since the parachutist is descending. so 158 × 17 = 2,686
make that negative.
you get -2,686 !!!! hope that helps :)))
3.5 pound = 3 5/10 pounds = 3 1/2 pounds
Now, 1 pound = 16 ounces, so 1/2 pound = 16*1/2 = 8 oz
<span>So the answer is 3 pounds and 8 oz.</span>
Answer:
56/65
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we know that cos(a-b) = cos(a)cos(b) + sin(a)sin(b)
We know what sin(a) and sin(b) are, and to get cos(a), we can take the equation sin²a + cos²a = 1
Thus,
(12/13)² + cos²a = 1
1 - (12/13)² = cos²a
1- 144/169 = cos²a
cos²a = 25/169
cos(a) = 5/13
Similarly,
(3/5)² + cos²b = 1
1 - (3/5)² = cos²b
1 - 9/25 = cos²b
cos²b = 16/25
cos(b) = 4/5
Our answer is
cos(a-b) = cos(a)cos(b) + sin(a)sin(b)
cos(a-b) = (5/13)(4/5) + (12/13)(3/5)
cos(a-b) = 20/65 + 36/65
cos(a-b) = 56/65
