Answer:

\theta = 108.29

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

u =

v =

Required:

Calculate the angle between u and v

The angle \theta is calculated as thus:

cos\theta = \frac{u.v}{|u|.|v|}

For a vector

A =

A = a * b

cos\theta = \frac{u.v}{|u|.|v|} becomes

cos\theta = \frac{.}{|u|.|v|}

cos\theta = \frac{2*6+4*-7}{|u|.|v|}

cos\theta = \frac{12-28}{|u|.|v|}

cos\theta = \frac{-16}{|u|.|v|}

For a vector

A =

|A| = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2}

So;

|u| = \sqrt{2^2 + 6^2}

|u| = \sqrt{4 + 36}

|u| = \sqrt{40}

|v| = \sqrt{4^2+(-7)^2}

|v| = \sqrt{16+49}

|v| = \sqrt{65}

So:

cos\theta = \frac{-16}{|u|.|v|}

cos\theta = \frac{-16}{\sqrt{40}*\sqrt{65}}

cos\theta = \frac{-16}{\sqrt{2600}}

cos\theta = \frac{-16}{\sqrt{100*26}}

cos\theta = \frac{-16}{10\sqrt{26}}

cos\theta = \frac{-8}{5\sqrt{26}}

Take arccos of both sides

\theta = cos^{-1}(\frac{-8}{5\sqrt{26}})

\theta = cos^{-1}(\frac{-8}{5 * 5.0990})

\theta = cos^{-1}(\frac{-8}{25.495})

\theta = cos^{-1}(-0.31378701706)

\theta = 108.288386087

<em></em>\theta = 108.29<em> (approximated)</em>

The angle marked a = 146 Work out the angle marked x.​
notka56 [123]

Answer:

<h2>34 degrees</h2>

Basic facts:

<em>Corresponding angles are sometimes known as 'F' angles.</em>

angles in a straight line add up to 180

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the other side of <em>a</em> we follow the Basic fact annd do

180-146

=34

following the rule, we know that this is a flipped F

An F is a corresponding angle

therefore f is 34

On a trip, you had to change your money from dollars to British pounds. You got 560560 pounds for 800800 dollars. How many pound
Vlad [161]
First you need to divide 800,800 by 300,300 because you need to know how these two amounts are related, in order to know how the amounts of pounds you are converting are related.
800,800÷300,300= 2.66666.... (recurring)
If $300,300 goes into $800,800 2.66666 times, then the amount of pounds you want to find goes into £560,560 2.66666 times as well. Let's write this as an equation to solve for x (where x is the amount of pounds you will obtain for $560,560):
2.66666x = 560,560
Divide both sides by 2.66666
x = 210,210
Therefore, you will get £210,210 for $300,000

The school's production of Romeo and Juliet began at 7:45 P.M. The first act lasted 1 hour and 35 minutes. The act was followed
Anika [276]
It should be 9:30 P.M.

7:45+ 15= 8
1 hour 35 minutes - 15= 1 hour 20

8+ 1 hour 20 minutes= 9:20
9:20+ 10= 9:30 P.M.
