Answer:

The numbers associated with the triangle are 5.437 and 6.437 centimeters, respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two numbers are consecutives, when their difference is equal to 1. The area of the triangle is determined by the following formula:

A = \frac{1}{2}\cdot n \cdot (n+1)

A = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (n^{2}+n)

A = \frac{n^{2}}{2}+\frac{n}{2}

n^{2}+n = 2\cdot A

Where n is the shortest length of the triangle, measured in centimeters.

And we get the following second-order polynomial:

n^{2}+n -2\cdot A = 0 (1)

If we know that A = 17.5\,cm^{2}, then the shortest length of the triangle is:

n_{1} = 5.437\,cm and n_{2} \approx -6.437\,cm

Since length is a positive variable, the only possible solution is:

n\approx  5.437\,cm

Then, the numbers associated with the triangle are 5.437 and 6.437 centimeters, respectively.

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

D) 55/73

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is on trigonometry. Sine of an angle is obtained using the SOH of SOHCAHTOA formula of trigonometry. SOH is an acronym for sine, opposite and hypotenuse. Sine of an angle is obtained from the ratio of opposite and hypotenuse of a given triangle. Thus, SOH

is denoted as stated below.

sine \:  \beta  =  \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

Hence, given the above triangle,

sine \: of \: angle \: u =  \frac{ |bc| }{ |ab| }  =  \frac{55}{73}

Therefore, the sine of angle u = 55/73 (D)
