Answer:

100.5

Step-by-step explanation:

As it's a straight line, the angles should add up to 180. So 8x+14+8x-7=180, 16x+7=180, x=10.8125, DEG will be 8x+14=100.5

Answer:

If the length is 50 yd, the width is 60 yd.

If the length is 40 yd, the width is 75 yd.

If the length is 48 yd, the width is 62.5 yd.

If the length is 36 yd, the width is 83.33 yd.

The length and the width vary inversely because when the length decreased the width increased

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of any rectangle A = L × W, where

L is its length
W is its width

The relation is direct proportion if the quotient of two quantity equals constant (y/x = k, when y and x increased) and inverse if the product of the two quantity equals constant (yx = k, when x increased y decreased and vice versa)

∵ The area of the rectangular plot of land = 3000 yards²

∴ A = 3000

∵ Its length = 50 yards

∴ L = 50

→ Substitute them in the rule above to find W

∵ 3000 = 50 × W

→ Divide both sides by 50 to find W

∴ 60 = W

∴ The width of the plot is 60 yards

∵ Its length = 40 yards

∴ L = 40

→ Substitute them in the rule above to find W

∵ 3000 = 40 × W

→ Divide both sides by 40 to find W

∴ 75 = W

∴ The width of the plot is 75 yards

∵ Its length = 48 yards

∴ L = 48

→ Substitute them in the rule above to find W

∵ 3000 = 48 × W

→ Divide both sides by 48 to find W

∴ 62.5 = W

∴ The width of the plot is 62.5 yards

∵ Its length = 36 yards

∴ L = 36

→ Substitute them in the rule above to find W

∵ 3000 = 36 × W

→ Divide both sides by 36 to find W

∴ 83. 33 = W

∴ The width of the plot is 83.33 yards

∵ The area is a constant value

∵ A = LW

→ The product of L and W equals the constant value, can you discover

that from the values of L and W

∴ The length and the width of the rectangular plot vary inversely

Solve the given triangles by finding the missing angle and other side lengths.

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

a ≈ 27.65; B = 28°; c ≈ 19.17
a ≈ 163.30; B = 120°; c ≈ 59.77
A = 13°; b ≈ 0.3874; c ≈ 1.3737

Step-by-step explanation:

As long as you're seeking outside help, the use of a suitable tool is appropriate. Many graphing calculators, apps, and web sites are available for solving triangles.

Here, you're given two angles and a side. The third angle is the difference from 180° of the sum of the other two. For example, in the first problem, ...

B = 180° -A -C = 28°

The missing sides are found using the law of sines. Since you are given a side, use that as the reference, and its opposite angle as the reference angle. Then you have ...

side = sin(opposite angle)×((reference side)/sin(reference angle))

Note that the factor in italics remains the same for both remaining sides.

In the first problem, this becomes ...

a = sin(112°)·14/sin(28°) ≈ 27.65

c = sin(40°)·14/sin(28°) ≈ 19.17

The remaining problems are worked in similar fashion.

Comment on triangle solutions

These are straightforward because you're given two angles. If you're given two sides and an angle, the solution method varies depending on which angle you're given (opposite the long side, the short side, or the unknown side). In the last case, the law of cosines is involved. In the second case, there are likely two solutions. Once you have two angles, you can proceed as above.
