Answer:

y = -1x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

(1,1)(7,-5)

y2-y1/x2-x1 = slope

-5-1/7-1 = -6/6= -1

y-y1 = slope(x-x1) // equation formula

y-1=-1(x-1)

y = -1x + 1 +1

y = -1x+2

Find the area of the given triangle to the nearest square unit. Angle a= 30 degrees, b=10, angle B=45 degrees

storchak [24]

Answer:

$A=34\ units^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose we have a general triangle like the one shown in the figure.

We know the angle A, the angle B and the length b.

$A = 30\°\\\\B = 45\°\\\\b = 10$

By definition I know that the sum of the internal angles of a triangle is always equal to 180 °.

$A + B + C = 180\\\\30 + 45 + C = 180$

We solve the equation and thus we find the angle C.

$C = 180 - 30-45\\\\C = 105$

We already know the three triangle angles.

Now we use the sine theorem to calculate the sides c and a.

The sine theorem says that:

$\frac{sin(A)}{a}=\frac{sin(B)}{b}=\frac{sin(C)}{c}$

Then

$\frac{sin(30)}{a}=\frac{sin(45)}{10}$

$\frac{sin(30)}{\frac{sin(45)}{10}}=a$

$a=7.071$

Also

$\frac{sin(105)}{c}=\frac{sin(45)}{10}$

$\frac{sin(105)}{\frac{sin(45)}{10}}=c$

$c=13.660$

Finally, we use the Heron formula to calculate the triangle area

$A=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}$

Where s is:

$s=\frac{a+b+c}{2}$

Therefore

$s=\frac{7.071+10+13.660}{2}$

$s=15.37$

$A=\sqrt{15.37(15.37-7.071)(15.37-10)(15.37-13.66)}$

$A=34\ units^2$

A circle is centered on point B. Points A, C and D lie on its circumference.

QveST [7]

Answer:

23 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

If <ADC is the arc measure of the circle, by definition the center angle (<ABC) has the same measure as its intercepted arc.

he Statue of Liberty is approximately 305 feet tall. If the angle of elevation of a ship to the top of the statue is 22.9 degree

Andru [333]

Answer:

is at a distance of 722 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

we have the angle that forms between the water and the imaginary line between the ship and the tip of the statue

we have the statue height that would be the opposite leg to our angle and we want to know the distance of the ship to the statue that would be the adjacent leg

we see that it has (angle, adjacent, opposite)

well to start we have to know the relationship between angles, legas and the hypotenuse

a: adjacent

o: opposite

h: hypotenuse

sin α = o/h

cos α= a/h

tan α = o/a

it's the tangent

tan α = o/a

we replace the values and solve

tan α = o/a

tan 22.9 = 305/a

a = 305/tan22.9

a = 305/0.4224

a = 722

is at a distance of 722 feet
