x over 5 becuase the top and bottom are both divisible by 8 so you do that.
Answer:
d) 86.2 degrees
x = 86.20°
Attached is the image used in the question;
Step-by-step explanation:
Applying the law of cosine;
Cos C = (a² + b² - c²)/2ab
Where;
Angle C = x
c = 13 ft
b = 9ft
a = 10ft
Substituting into the equation;
Cos x = (10² + 9² - 13²)/(2×10×9)
Cos x = 0.0667
x = cos⁻¹(0.0667)
x = 86.20°
Step-by-step explanation:
since we are required to find side |BC| and the value of side |AB| is given as 6.3 cm
hence we find the cosine of the given angle...
cos71 = adjacent ÷ hypotenuse
cos71 = |AB| ÷ |BC|
cos 71 = 6.3 ÷ |BC|
|BC| = 6.3 ÷ 0.325
|BC| = 19.4 cm
The aides of a right triangle will always satisfy the Pythagorean relationship ...
a² + b²= c²
We can take each of these and try it out:
(1) ... 10² + 24² = 100 + 576 = 676
√676 = <em>26 Yes</em>.
(2) ... 12² + 18² = 144 + 324 = 468
√468 = 21.6, not 20. <em>No.</em>
(3) ... 15² + 26² = 225 + 676 = 901
√901 = 30.017 Awfully close. As an engineer, I'll buy this one. <em>Yes.</em>
(4) ... 40² + 50² = 1,600 + 2,500 = 4,100
√4,100 = 64.03, not 80.<em> No.</em>
