Answer:
a) 5.83 cm
b) 34.45°
Step-by-step explanation:
a) From Pythagoras theorem of right triangles, given right triangle ABC:
AB² + BC² = AC²
Therefore:
AC² = 5² + 3²
AC² = 25 + 9 = 34
AC = √34
AC = 5.83 cm
b) From triangle ACD, AC = 5.83 cm, AD = 4 cm and ∠A = 90°.
From Pythagoras theorem of right triangles, given right triangle ACD:
AD² + AC² = DC²
Therefore:
DC² = 5.83² + 4²
DC² = 34 + 16 = 50
DC = √50
DC = 7.07 cm
Let ∠ACD be x. Therefore using sine rule:

The equation would be:
x - 9 < 4
Simplify (add 9)
Solution: x < 13
I don't have my calculator handy just now. But just looking at that problem, why don't you try +20 and -45 and see if they do the job.
The slope formula is y=mx+b. Y is a variable. m is the actual slope. It tells you how much the x will move. For example, if a slope was 2x, x would move up 2 and over 1. If the slope was 1/2 x, x would move up 1 and over 2. A way to remember slope is rise over run. X is a variable. B is a point on the y-intercept that is will the line will start. An example is y=x+3. The y-intercept is 3 and x would move up one and over one.
