Answer:

The required cosine value of the function is: cos{\theta}=\frac{-2\sqrt{29}}{29}

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

There is a clown's face on the top of a spinner. The tip of his hat rotates to (−2, 5) during one spin.

Refer the figure 1:

Now from the right triangle, It is clear that the length of opposite side is 5 units and the length of adjacent side is 2 units.

Now use the Pythagoras Theorem, we get,

(2)² + (5)² = Hypotenuse²

4 + 25 = Hypotenuse²

Hypotenuse = √ 29 units.

As we know cos{\theta}=\frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse}

Substitute the respective values in the above formula.

cos{\theta}=\frac{-2}{\sqrt{29}}

cos{\theta}=\frac{-2\sqrt{29}}{29}

Hence, the required cosine value of the function is: cos{\theta}=\frac{-2\sqrt{29}}{29}

5. Use the law of Cosines to find each missing sides. Round to the nearest tenth
stellarik [79]

The measure of angle x will be 88 degrees. Then the correct option is C.

The complete question is attached below.

<h3>What is law of cosine?</h3>

Let there is a triangle ABC such that |AB| = a units, |AC| = b units, and |BC| = c units and the internal angle A is of θ degrees, then we have:

2ab cos θ = a² + b² – c²

The triangle is shown below.

Then the value of the variable x will be

2 · 7 · 10 · cos x = 7² + 10² – 12²

       140 · cos x = 49 + 100 – 144

                cos x = (149 – 144) / 140

                       x = 87.95 ≈ 88°

Then the correct option is C.

What is a requirement of supplementary angles? Supplementary angles must be adjacent. Supplementary angles must be nonadjacent.
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

the measure of supplementary angles must add up to 180

Step-by-step explanation:

complementary angles add up to 90°

angles on a straight line are supplementary angles which add up to 180°

marathon runner runs26.2 miles at the pace of 6.2 minute per mile round off answer to the nearest minute how long will it take t
Scorpion4ik [409]
There are several methods of rounding, but in this case the 'best' one is probably to round up. Rounding down suggests that Kathy actually ran faster. 

<span>26.2 (mile) * 6.2 (minutes/mile) = 162.44 rounded up => 163 minutes.</span>

Three groups of a number plus two
Mkey [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be modelled with the variable x to represent the "groups"

3x + 2

Multiplifcation means groups of.

3x is 3 times x, which is 3 groups of x.
