Right triangle ABC is shown.



Triangle A B C is shown. Angle A C B is a right angle and angle C B A is 50 degrees. The length of A C is 3 meters, the length of C B is a, and the length of hypotenuse A B is c.

Answers

Answer: The correct answer is option 1;

Sin 50° = StartFraction 3 Over c EndFraction

That is, Sin 50° = 3/c

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the picture attached for further details.

The right triangle ABC is given and the angle ACB is identified as the 90 degree angle (the right angle).  Also the angle CBA is given as 50° and the side marked as AC is given as 3 units. Then, the other two sides are given as CB which is marked a and AB which is marked c.

The resulting right angled triangle as shown in the attached picture now has the hypotenuse as c. The opposite is 3 since its the side facing the reference angle, and the adjacent is a since its the side that lies between the reference angle and the right angle.

Using the reference angle which is given as 50, side c can now be solved using the trigonometric ratio as follows;

Sin 50 = opposite / hypotenuse

Sin 50 = 3/c

Answer:

answer is sin(50*) = 3/c

An equilateral triangle's sides are equal to each other, and all their angles are equal.

The best option is A.

What is the measurement of angle A to the nearest degree?

Answers

Answer:

A = 51 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the law of sines

sin A          sin 95

------------ = -----------

7                   9

Using cross products

9 sin A = 7 sin 95

Divide each side by 9

sin A = 7/9 sin 95

Take the inverse of each side

sin ^-1 sin A = sin ^-1 ( 7/9 sin 95)

A = 50.78854367

To the nearest degree

A = 51 degrees

Determine the constant of variation for the direct variation given.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]r = 4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Direct Variation

(0,0) ,(3,12),(9,36)​

Required

Constant of Variation

Provided that the given data is a direct variation, the constant variation is represented by r.

r is calculated as thus;

[tex]y = rx[/tex]

Divide both sides by x

[tex]r = \frac{y}{x}[/tex]

Point (0,0) is the center of origin and cannot be used

When x = 3, y = 12

and

[tex]r = \frac{12}{3}[/tex]

[tex]r = 4[/tex]

When x = 3, y = 12

and

[tex]r = \frac{36}{9}[/tex]

[tex]r = 4[/tex]

Notice that the value of r remain constant in both cases; Hence, the constant of variation is; [tex]r = 4[/tex]

write a formula that will yield the nth term of the sequence: 3,-2,-7,-12

Answers

Answer:

-5n + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. What is the difference?

  The sequence goes down by 5. This means that the formula will have -5n in it.

2. Work out the term before the first term.

    The first term is 3, and we know that the sequence goes up by 5. So, to get the term before 3 we would add 5.

3 + 5 = 8   Remember, this is positive 8. (+8)

3. Put that term at the end of the equation.

   We have -5n already and we just worked out the term before the first one which is positive 8 - so put that at the end of the equation.

-5n + 8  This is our answer!

Just to prove it works:

Substitute:   n = term

Lets see if we can get the 3rd term which is -7. (n = 3)

-5(3) + 8

-15 + 8 = -7

See, it works!

A x-Axis hope this helps

Answer:

A. x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is the x-axis because the trangle is an exact reflection flipped across the x-axis. We also know this was flipped across the x-axis because the x values do not change, but the y values are the exact opposite. For example, point M has coordinates (1,-1) while point M' has coordinates (1,1). This is the same for points K, K', J, and J'.

What is the condition to construct a triangle with given dimensions?

In a triangle, the sum of the two smaller sides must be greater than the larger side of the triangle. If this condition satisfies, then the triangle could be possible to construct.

Given,

1. A triangle with side lengths of 6 m, 8 m, and 9 m. Here, (6 + 8) > 9. Therefore, the triangle is possible to construct.

2. A triangle with side lengths of 4 m, 5 m, and 12 m. Here, (4 + 5) < 12. Therefore, the triangle is not possible to construct.

3. A triangle with side lengths of 2 m, 5 m, and 8 m. Here, (2 + 5) < 8. Therefore, the triangle is not possible to construct.

4. A triangle with side lengths of 4 m, 7 m, and 13 m. Here, (4 + 7) < 13. Therefore, the triangle is not possible to construct.

How many roots does (x+10)^9 have. Please explain how u did it.

Answers

Answer:

This expression contains a one root  (x= -10) of multiplicity 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that this polynomial is given in factor form, since it is equivalent to 9 products of the same factor (x+10):

[tex](x+10)^9=(x+10)\,(x+10)\,(x+10)\,(x+10)\,(x+10)\,(x+10)\,(x+10)\,(x+10)\,(x+10)[/tex]

Therefore, there is a single root x = -10, since when x=-10 each of these binomial factors result in a zero.

In mathematical terms, such type of root is said to have multiplicity. And in this case, the multiplicity is "9" (the number of equal binomial factors of the polynomial form).

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+10)^9 is the 9-degree polynomial so it has 9 roots

if it is equal to zero then it has 9 equal roots of x= -10

Choose the statement that is not true based on these diagrams. 38° + m∠2 + 108° = 180° m∠A + 108° + 34° = 180° m∠A = m∠2 m∠2 = 34°

Answers

Answer:Choose the statement that is not true based on these diagrams. answer= m∠A = m∠2

The statement that is not true based on these diagrams will be;

⇒ m ∠A = m∠2

What is mean by Triangle?

A triangle is a three sided polygon, which has three vertices and three angles which has the sum 180 degrees.

Given that;

In Triangle ABC,

⇒ Angle C is 108 degrees and angle B is 34 degrees.

Now,

Since, In Triangle ABC,

⇒ Angle C is 108 degrees and angle B is 34 degrees.

Hence, We get;

⇒ m ∠A + m ∠B + m ∠C = 180°

Substitute all the values, we get;

⇒ m ∠A + 34° + 108° = 180°

⇒ m ∠A + 142° = 180°

⇒ m ∠A = 180° - 142°

⇒ m ∠A = 38°

Thus, The incorrect statement is,

⇒ m ∠A = m∠2
