Un topografo situado en un punto c localiza dos puntos a y b en los lados opuestos de un lago . Si el punto c esta situado a 5km de a y 8 km de b y ademas el angulo formado en el punto c es de 36 grados . Calcular el ancho del lago

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The width of the lake is approximately 4.93 kilometers.

To calculate the width of the lake, you can use trigonometry. You have a triangle with one side of 5 km (from point C to point A), another side of 8 km (from point C to point B), and an included angle of 36 degrees at point C.

You can use the law of cosines to find the third side, which is the width of the lake (let's call it "x"). The law of cosines states:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab * cos(C)

Where:

c is the side you want to find (the width of the lake, in this case).

a is the side opposite to angle A (5 km).

b is the side opposite to angle B (8 km).

C is the included angle at point C (36 degrees).

So, plug in the values:

x^2 = 5^2 + 8^2 - 2 * 5 * 8 * cos(36 degrees)

Now, you can solve for x:

x^2 = 25 + 64 - 80 * cos(36 degrees)

x^2 = 89 - 80 * cos(36 degrees)

Now, you'll need to calculate the cosine of 36 degrees, which is approximately 0.809.

x^2 = 89 - 80 * 0.809\nx^2 = 89 - 64.72\nx^2 = 24.28

Now, take the square root of both sides to find the width of the lake:

x ≈ √24.28

x ≈ 4.93 km

So, the width of the lake is approximately 4.93 kilometers.

Queremos encontrar el valor de c que representa el ancho del lago

En este problema, a=5, b=8, y C=36°

c^2=a^2+b^2-2abcos(C)

c=√(a^2+b^2-2abcos(C))

c=√(5^2+8^2-2(5)(8)cos(36^o))

c=√(25+64-80cos(36^o))

c=√(89-80cos(36^o))

c≈4.92734 km


el ancho del lago es de aproximadamente 4.93km

Find all values of k so that the trinomial x^2 + kx - 35 can be factored using integers

Answers

(x-r_1)(x-r_2)=x^2-(r_1+r_2)x+r_1r_2

So the trinomial x^2+kx-35 can be factored as long as

\begin{cases}r_1+r_2=-k\nr_1r_2=-35\end{cases}

has integer solutions for r_1,r_2. Clearly, both have to be factors of -35, which leaves only a handful of cases:

(r_1,r_2)=(1,-35)\implies r_1+r_2=-34
(r_1,r_2)=(-1,35)\implies r_1+r_2=34
(r_1,r_2)=(5,-7)\implies r_1+r_2=-2
(r_1,r_2)=(-5,7)\implies r_1+r_2=2

So the possible values of k are \pm34 and \pm2.

A triangle has an area of 20 cm2. If its base is 40% of its height, what is its height to the nearest tenth of a centimeter?

Answers

Answer:

10cm

Step-by-step explanation:


Let's call the base a and the height h
a.h/2 = 20
a.h = 40
2/5h.h = 40 (because a = 40%h)
h^2 = 100
h = 10
a = 4

What is the volume of the cube? A. 2744 mm3

B. 42 mm3

C. 1176 mm3

D. 196 mm3

Answers

If you would like to know the volume of the cube, you can calculate this using the following steps:

a^3 = 2744 mm^3 ... a = 14 mm
b^3 = 42 mm^3 ... b = 3.48 mm
c^3 = 1176 mm^3 ... c = 10.56 mm
d^3 = 196 mm^3 ... d = 5.81 mm

The correct result would be A. 2744 mm^3.

the correct answer is A.

Which expression is a difference of squares with a factor of 5x − 8?25x2 − 16
25x2 + 16
25x2 − 64
25x2 + 64

Answers

Answer:

option  (3) is correct.

25x^2-64

Step-by-step explanation:

 Given :  factor 5x − 8

We have to choose an expression out of given option that is a difference of squares with a factor of 5x − 8

Using  algebraic identity a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)

a difference of squares is written mathematically as a^2-b^2

Since one factor is 5x − 8

using identity stated above other factor has be 5x+8

Thus (5x+8)(5x-8)

On simplify , we get

(5x+8)(5x-8)=(5x)^2-8^2=25x^2-64

Thus, option  (3) is correct.

a2 - b2 = (a-b)(a+b)

(5x-8)(5x+8) = 25x2 - 64

answer: 25x2 - 64
