<u>Given</u>:

Given that PQR is a triangle.

The measures of the sides of the triangle are 4,5 and 6.

We need to determine the measure of ∠Q.

<u>Measure of ∠Q:</u>

The measure of ∠Q can be determined using the law of cosines formula.

Thus, we have;

\cos (Q)=\frac{p^{2}+r^{2}-q^{2}}{2 p r}

Substituting p = 6, q = 4, r = 5, we get;

\cos (Q)=\frac{6^{2}+5^{2}-4^{2}}{2 (6)(5)}

Simplifying, we get;

\cos (Q)=\frac{36+25-16}{2 (30)}

\cos (Q)=\frac{45}{60}

Dividing, we get;

\cos (Q)=0.75

      Q=cos^{-1}(0.75)

      Q=41^{\circ}

Thus, the measure of ∠Q is 41°

Hence, Option b is the correct answer.

Deffense [45]
The sum is the gcf, if 60 plus 84 is 148 then wouldn't it be 148 that's what they all have in common, you can use a calculator to figure this out like say 148 times 2 equals 296, divide 296 by 60. Does it go in?

Answer:

The area of the cross section would be 160in squared

Step-by-step explanation:

They are asking for the area of the cross section, the rectangle that is splitting the prism in half. Area=heightxwidth. So, you would just multiply 10x16 to get your answer, which would be 160.

a = prt

a = 24,000 x 0.06 x(48 / 12)(you have to turn months into years)

a = 24,000 x 0.06 x 4

a = $5,760

The payment due is $5,760
