Answer:

Largest angle is 94.22°

Explanation:

The sides of the triangle are given as 6 inches, 11 inches, 13 inches.

Now, we can find the respective interior angles of the triangle using cosine rule.

Thus, for the angle opposite 6 inches, let's label it A. Thus;

6² = 11² + 13² - 2(11 × 13)cos A

36 = 121 + 169 - 286cosA

36 = 290 - 286cos A

290 - 36 = 286cosA

cosA = 254/286

A = cos^(-1)0.8881

A = 27.36°

Similarly;

11² = 6² + 13² - 2(6 × 13)cos B

121 = 36 + 169 - 156cosB

121 = 205 - 156cos B

205 - 121 = 156cosB

cosB = 84/156

B = cos^(-1)0.5385

B = 57.42°

Sum of angles in a triangle is 180°

Thus;

C = 180 - (27.36 + 58.42)

C = 94.22°

Thus,largest angle is 94.22°

How do topographic maps compare in their representation of continental and ocean-floor topography? A. Both continental and ocean
SVEN [57.7K]

B. Both continental and ocean-floor topography are measured relative to sea level

Explanation:

On a topographic map, both continental and ocean-floor topography are measured relative to sea level.

The sea level is the reference surface for the continental and ocean floor topography.

  • A topographic map is a map that shows landform using series of contour lines.
  • The lines joins places of equal elevation.
  • The elevation is usually referenced to the sea level surface.
  • The sea level is taken as the surface with 0 depth or height.
  • Continental topography is all places above the sea level.
  • Ocean floor is below the sea level surface

Which metamorphic rock forms under the highest temperature and highest pressure?
tankabanditka [31]

Answer: Gneiss

Explanation: Gneiss is a metamorphic rock formed from shale at very high temperature and pressure condition. They exhibit a preferred alignment or orientation of platy minerals called foliation. They are coarse grained and exhibit gneissose banding. They are formed from highest grade regional metamorphism with temperature between 450 - 600 degree celcius and pressure between 800 - 1000 mega pascal. They generally occur in cores of fold mountain belts where mountain ranges have been eroded.

How has the US been involved in the Middle East since WWII?
rjkz [21]

After World War II, The United States got heavily involved in the Middle East, mostly because of its political and economic interests.

Explanation:

After the World War ended, the Middle East was a region that just got its freedom after a very long time. The young states had lot of problems, and there was big interests from the global superpowers for controlling them because they lied on enormous reserves of oil.

The United States rushed to make good relations and if possible to control some of the countries. There was enormous competition for the region though, especially from the Soviet Union. The United States invested heavily, and put in a lot of effort to secure the region for themselves, and i part managed to.

The long term benefits of this have been huge for the United States. Also, whenever there was someone in the region that was threatening their interests, the United States didn't hesitated to use their military power and put things under their control.

Some of military interventions by the United States in this region were:

  • Soviet-Afghan war
  • the Gulf War
  • Iraq war
  • Afghanistan war
  • Syria war
