Answer:
129.8 approximately
Step-by-step explanation:
So this sounds like a problem for the Law of Cosines. The largest angle is always opposite the largest side in a triangle.
So 11 is the largest side so the angle opposite to it is what we are trying to find. Let's call that angle, X.
My math is case sensitive.
X is the angle opposite to the side x.
Law of cosines formula is:
So we are looking for X.
We know x=11, a=4, and b=8 (it didn't matter if you called b=4 and a=8).
Subtract 80 on both sides:
Divide both sides by -64:
Now do the inverse of cosine of both sides or just arccos( )
[these are same thing]
Time for the calculator:
X=129.8 approximately
Answer: Choice A
The fractions are not equivalent because the product of the numerator of the first fraction and the denominator of the second fraction is <u> 15 </u> , which is not equal to the product of the numerator of the second fraction and the denominator of the first fraction <u> 16 </u>
===================================================
Explanation:
We have the template which cross multiplies to
So if was true, then
must be true as well, and vice versa.
The left side 3*5 turns into 15, while the right hand side 4*4 becomes 16. The 15 and 16 don't match up.
In short, turns into
which is a false statement. So the original claim that
is also false.
