Answer:
A. 17
Step-by-step explanation:
using the cosine rule (also see attached for reference):
AB² = BC² + AC² - 2·AC·BC cos C
2·AC·BC cos C = BC² + AC² - AB²
Given that AC = 18, AB = 12 and BC = 18, substituting these into the formula
2(18)(28) cos C = 28² + 18² - 12²
1008 cos C = 964
cos C = 964/1008
cos C = 0.9563
C = cos⁻¹ 0.9563
C = 16.99 ( = 17° rounded to nearest degree)
Answer:
x=36
Step-by-step explanation:
So, lets go over what we know:
16 is equal to 4/9ths of x.
As a equation, this looks like:
We can begin to solve for x by multiplying both sides by the denominator, 9, which gets us:
=
Then we can divide by the coefficent of x, which is 4, to get our answer:
=
This is our answer! Hope this helps! :3
