<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.

A rectangle has an area of 100 square centimeters. The base of the rectangle is 25 centimeters. What is the height of the rectan
enyata [817]
You find area by multiplying base and height.
The formula is  A=bh
so 100=25h
25 times 4 is 100
100=25*4

A tree farm owner uses a grid to mark where to plant trees in the spring. The first tree is planted at (2, 3). Each of the other
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

See attached image for the drawing of the first four trees (circled in green)

The patterns is:

x = 2+3n  and  y= 3+2n

Position of 7th tree is: (20,15) (circled in orange in the image)

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting at the location (2,3) the next x and y positions are given by:

x = 2+3n since the horizontal position needs to be increased by 3 units on each iteration,

and y= 3+2n since the vertical position needs to be increased by 2 units on each iteration

being n= 1 through 6 (to account for the next 6 trees that need to be planted)

With such pattern, the location of the seventh tree would be:

x = 2 + 3*6 =2 + 18 = 20

y = 3 + 2*6 = 3 + 12 = 15

That is, the point (20,15) on the plane.

Also see attached image.
