<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.

What set of reflections would carry triangle ABC onto itslelf?
riadik2000 [5.3K]
<h3>Answer: Choice A</h3>

y axis, x axis, y axis, x axis

============================

Explanation:

Reflecting an object over the y axis twice will have it end up in its starting position. The same can be said for the x axis as well. It doesn't matter that the x axis reflections aren't grouped next to each other, nor the y. So in a sense, two x axis reflections undo each other, so do the y axis reflections, and we end up with the same image as shown in the diagram.

A(R+T)=W solve for T
Leni [432]
A(R+T)=W
(A×R)+(A×T)=W
AR+AT=W
-AR from both sides
AT=W-AR
divide both sides by A
T=(W-AR)/A

Can someone help me out with these two problems having trouble please !!
eimsori [14]

Answer:

1.

x=-10

x=-6

2.

x=10

x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the zeros of a function you need to set it equal to zero:

x^2+16x+60=0

then you factor

(x+10)(x+6)=0

then you have to finish factoring/simplifying

x+10=0

  -10

x=-10

x+6=0

 -6

x=-6

and the same thing for number 2

x^2-7x-30=0

(x-10)(x-3)=0

x=10, x=3
