1. An artist is designing triangular mirrors. Determine the number of different triangles that she can form using the given measurements. Then solve the triangles. Round to the nearest tenth. a=4.2 cm b= 5.7 cm measure angle A= 39 degrees 2. What angle in the first quadrant ...

make a diagram label the tower AB , where A is the top of the tower. label the man's first position C, his second position D so that DC = 300 Look at triangle ADC, angle D = 35° angle ACD = 110° , so then angle DAC = 35° so the triangle is isosceles (lucky) and...

Solve the triangle. Round to the nearest tenth. B=54deg a=42 c=6.5 1. I found length of b using law of cosine and got 36.2 2. Using side of b, I used the law of sine to get angle A = 28.2 3. I added B+A and subtracted from 180 to get angle C = 127.8 which DOES NOT make sense ...

y = (3sinx/2) + 4 If you mean y = 3 sin (x/2) + 4 the amplitude is 3 It goes up from 4 to 7 when the sine is +1 and down from 4 to 1 when the sine function is -1

You ignored the 10 minutes of the 63º angle so A = 63.1667º which would slightly alter your angles. However I tested your solution for the angles if A = 63 and the angles are correct for that version your value of c is correct for A=63 why did you use the cosine law...

In this notation, small letters are usually used to represent sides, and capital letters to indicate the angles at the vertex, so yours : b=14, c=15, cos A = 3/5 direct application of the cosine law a^2 = 14^2 + 15^2 - 2(14)(15)cos A = .... once you have a use the Sine Law to ...

I made a diagram and obtained a triangle with sides 37 and 210 with a 19ºbetween them Using the cosine law if found the side opposite the 19º angle to be 175.4 So the bee is 175.4 m from the hive Then using the sine law I got the angle between the resultant and the ...
