Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 56.3 \textdegree}}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the measure of angle a.

This triangle is a right triangle because of the small triangle in the corner representing a 90 degree or right angle. Therefore, we can use trigonometric functions. The three main functions are:

  • sinθ=opposite/hypotenuse
  • cosθ= adjacent/hypotenuse
  • tanθ= opposite/adjacent

The side measuring 6 is adjacent or next to angle a. The side measuring 9 is opposite angle a. Therefore, we will use the tangent function.

tan \theta= \frac{ opposite}{adjacent}

tan  \ a = \frac{ 9}{6}

Since we are solving for an angle measure, we use the inverse trigonometric function.

tan ^{-1} * tan \ a = tan ^{-1} * \frac{9}6}

a= tan ^{-1} * \frac{9}6}

a= 56.30993247

Round to the nearest tenth. The 0 in the hundredth place tells us to leave the 3 in the tenth place.

a \approx 56.3

The measure of angle a is approximately 56.3 degrees.

The sum of two numbers is -17 and their difference is 41 what are the two numbers?
liberstina [14]

Answer: the two numbers are 7 and -27

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be a and b

From the question,

a + b = -27.......eqn 1

a - b = 41............eqn 2

Sum the two equations

2a = 14

Divide both sides by 2

a = 14/2; a = 7

Substitute a = 7 into equation 2

a - b = 41

7 - b = 41

Make b the subject of the equation

-b = 41 -7

-b = 34

b = -34

Check:

a + b = -27, slot the values of a and b

7 + (-34) = -27

7- 34 = -27

I hope this is clear, please mark as brainliest answer

Zamir needs to determine the height of the building
Svetach [21]

Answer:

Height of the building = 115.4 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of building = AB + 46.4 + CD + 30.5

By applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔABP,

(26)² = (10)²+ (AB)²

676 - 100 = AB²

AB² = 576

AB = 24 ft

By applying sine rule in ΔCDE,

cos(60°) = \frac{CD}{CE}

CD = CE × \frac{1}{2}

CD = \frac{29}{2}

CD = 14.5 ft

Total Height = 24 + 46.4 + 14.5 + 30.5

                     = 115.4 ft
