The line y+4=3/4(x-8) contains point (a,2). Find a.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Naddik [55]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

y + 4 = \dfrac{3}{4}(x-8)\\\\y + 4 = \dfrac{3}{4}x- \dfrac{3}{4}*8\\\\y +4 = \dfrac{3}{4}x-3*2\\\\y+4+6= \dfrac{3}{4}x \\\\y+10= \dfrac{3}{4}x

Now plugin x = a and y =2 in the above equation,

2+10= \dfrac{3}{4}*a\\\\12= \dfrac{3}{4}a\\\\12* \dfrac{4}{3}=a\\\\a=4*4\\\\a=16

Which trig ratio should you use to find the given side?
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

D. cosine

Step-by-step explanation:

As it can be seen in the figure, the triangle ABC is a right-angled triangle with Angle C = 90 degree.

In a right angle triangle, there is a formula as following:

<em>cosine (of an acute angle) = length of  adjacent side/ length of hypotenuse</em>

In the figure, the point of angle B and length of hypotenuse AB are given.

We have to calculate x - length of the given side. As BC is the adjacent side of angle B

=> we can use the above formula to calculate x

So that we can use cosine
