Answer:

b = 159 m

a = 103 m

angle B is 57 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s start with getting the measure of angle B

Mathematically, since we have a right triangle , we have to subtract the given angle from 90 to get the other acute angle

So we have the measure of B as;

90-33 = 57 degrees

To get the value of a, we use the appropriate trigonometric ratio

a faces the angle 33, that makes it an opposite to that angle

190 faces the right angle and that makes it the hypotenuse

Mathematically , the relationship between the two is that trigonometrically, they are related by the sine which is the ratio of the opposite to the hypotenuse

so, we have it that;

sine 33 = a/190

a = 190 * sine 33

a = 103 m

to get b, it is adjacent to the given angle

So with the hypotenuse, the ratio between it and the hypotenuse is the cosine

so;

cos 33 = b/190

b = 190 * cos 33

b = 159 m

Eight less than four times the number c is twenty.<br> What is the value of c?
olganol [36]

Answer:

c=7

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem says that 8 less than 4 times c is less than twenty, so we can first show 8 less than 20.

4c -( I did this because it said 4 times the number c)

Then, we show 8 less than that.

4c-8

It says it is twenty, and that means it equals twenty.

4c-8=20

Now we solve!

4c-8=20

   +8  +8

*we add 8 to both sides*

4c=28

*we divide both sides by 4 since we want to isolate c*

c=28/4

c=7

I hope this helped!
