Someone please solve and explain part a(i)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Crank2 years ago
4 0

Step-by-step explanation:

the way I understand the description :

C is below B. they are on a kind of straight hill, and there is a straight "road" going up from C to B.

then, at B there is an antenna or other firm of mast going straight up.

therefore, this is not a right-angled triangle with 90 degrees at B (as it would be, if this would be in a flat plane).

but because it goes downhill from B to C the angle is 105 degree.

(a)(i)

now, imagine, there would be a horizontal plane either at B or at C. AB would have a true 90 degree angle with this plane. so, what is the angle of CB with this plane ?

this angle is the "excess" of the 90 degrees, as CB angles down from the horizontal plane at B, or angles up with the same angle from the horizontal plane at C.

what is the "excess" of 105 degrees vs. the standard 90 degrees ? 105 - 90 = 15 degrees.

(a)(ii)

the extended Pythagoras for not right-angled triangles :

c² = a² + b² - 2ab×cos(B)

B being the angle opposite of the Hypotenuse c.

so, we have

c² = 15² + 10² -2×15×10×cos(105) = 225 + 100 - 300×cos(105) =

= 325 - 300×cos(105) = 402.6457135...

c = 20.06603383... ≈ 20 m

In a right triangle one leg measures a quarter of the other, how much do its acute angles measure? with procedure please​
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 14° and 76°

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

leg 1 = x

leg 2 = x/4

angle 1 = ?

angle 2 = ?

Process

To solve problem use trigonometric functions. We must use the trigonometric function that relates both legs (tangent).

    tangent Ф = Opposite side / Adjacent side

-Substitution

    tan Ф = (x/4) / x

-Simplification

    tan Ф = x / 4x

    tan Ф = 1/4

-  Find Ф

     Ф = tan⁻¹(1/4) =  14°

- Find the other acute angle

  The sum of the internal angles in a triangles equals 180°

       Ф + Ф₁ + 90° = 180

-Solve for Ф₁

        Ф₁  = 180 - 90 - 14

-Result

        Ф₁ = 76°
