Answer:

Cos(a - b) = 0.959

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

Sin(a) = 4/5

Such that a is on the first quadrant (between 0° and 90°)

then:

Sin(a) = 4/5

Asin(sin(a)) = Asin(4/5)

a = Asin(4/5) = 53.13°

And:

Cos(b) = 2/5

Then:

Acos(Cos(b)) = Acos(2/5)

b = Acos(2/5) = 36.67°

Then:

Cos(a - b)

where:

a = 53.13° and b = 36.67°

Then:

Cos(a - b) = Cos(53.13° - 36.67°) = 0.959

2*4= 8 meters

You could multiply every centimeter by the scale of 4 because 1 cm= 4 meters.

Which segment is an altitude of triangle IGH? (See attachment)
Reptile [31]

Answer: segment KH

Explanation:

The altitude of a triangle is defined as a segment connecting one of the vertex of the triangle with the opposite side of the triangle (or with an external prolongation of it), forming a right angle with it.

Note that the altitude of a triangle can also be outside the area of the triangle.

If we look at the picture, we see that:

- IH is a side, so it is not an altitude of the triangle

- KH is an altitude of the triangle, since it connects the vertex H with the external prolongation of IG, and it makes a right angle with it

- GJ: we don't know if it is an altitude, since we don't know if it forms a right angle or not

- GH: it is a side of the triangle, so it is not an altitude

So, the correct answer is segment KH.

Bridget and Caroline win some money and share it in the ratio 7:3. Bridget gets £40 more than Caroline. How much did they get al
solong [7]

Answer:

£100

Step-by-step explanation:

if the ratio is 7:3, the difference between them is 7-3 . = 4.

So,

4x = £40

Now, calculate x

x = £10

Now,

we are able to calculate:

7x (Bridget's share) = £70

3x (Caroline's share) = £30

Sum = £100

Hope this helps.

Good Luck
