Answer:
16. Angle C is approximately 13.0 degrees.
17. The length of segment BC is approximately 45.0.
18. Angle B is approximately 26.0 degrees.
15. The length of segment DF "e" is approximately 12.9.
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>16</h3>
By the law of sine, the sine of interior angles of a triangle are proportional to the length of the side opposite to that angle.
For triangle ABC:
,- The opposite side of angle A
, - The angle C is to be found, and
- The length of the side opposite to angle C
.
.

.
Note that the inverse sine function here
is also known as arcsin.
<h3>17</h3>
By the law of cosine,
,
where
,
, and
are the lengths of sides of triangle ABC, and
is the cosine of angle C.
For triangle ABC:
,
, - The length of
(segment BC) is to be found, and - The cosine of angle A is
.
Therefore, replace C in the equation with A, and the law of cosine will become:
.

For triangle ABC:
,
,
, and- Angle B is to be found.
Start by finding the cosine of angle B. Apply the law of cosine.

For triangle DEF:
- The length of segment DF is to be found,
- The length of segment EF is 9,
- The sine of angle E is
, and - The sine of angle D is
.
Apply the law of sine:

Answer:
Answer A represents this
x <= -3 ; x > 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate x on each of the inequalities:
4 x + 4 <= - 8
subtract 4 from both sides
4 x <= - 12
divide both sides by 4 to isolate x completely (notice 4 is positive, so there is NO flipping of the inequality symbol)
x <= -3
This inequality is represented by shading the left section of the number line starting at x = -3 (make sure you draw a SOLID dot to mae clear that the point x = -3 is also included in your drawing.
The other inequality:
11 x - 11 > 88
add 11 to both sides
11 x > 99
divide both sides by 11 to isolate x (notice again that 11 is a positive number, so the inequality doesn't change with the division)
x > 9
This inequality is represented by shadowing the right hand side of the number line starting at x = 9. Make sure you draw an EMPTY dot on the number 9 to indicate that x = 9 is NOT included.
