In a right triangle the two legs are measures of 4x and 3x with a hypotenuse measurement of 5x. If the area of the triangle is 24 square units, find the cosine of each acute angle.

Answers

Answer 1

The cosine of the acute angles are 0.80 and 0.60 respectively

The given parameters are:

[tex]Leg\ 1 = 4x[/tex]

[tex]Leg\ 2 = 3x[/tex]

[tex]Hypotenuse = 5x[/tex]

Let the acute angles be [tex]\alpha[/tex] and [tex]\beta[/tex]

The cosine of the acute angles is calculated using:

[tex]\cos(\alpha) = \frac{Leg\ 1}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]

[tex]\cos(\beta) = \frac{Leg\ 2}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]

So, the formula becomes

[tex]\cos(\alpha) = \frac{4x}{5x}[/tex]

[tex]\cos(\alpha) = \frac{4}{5}[/tex]

[tex]\cos(\alpha) = 0.80[/tex]

and

[tex]\cos(\beta) = \frac{3x}{5x}[/tex]

[tex]\cos(\beta) = \frac{3}{5}[/tex]

[tex]\cos(\beta) = 0.60[/tex]

Hence, the cosine of the acute angles are 0.80 and 0.60 respectively

We can see in the expression that there are 2 x² blocks, 4 -x blocks, and 3 -1 blocks. Therefore, we can write this as

Comparing this with each answer, we have

A: x²-2x-4 + x² + 2x-1 = 2x²-5. This is not correct

The exponent of a number says how many times to use the number in a multiplication.

For Example, In 8² , the 2 is the number of times 8 has to be multiplied. In this case It has to multiplied by itself 2 times, 8x8 = 64 so 8² = 64.
Another example is 9³ since the number above is 3 we have to multiply 9 three times, 9x9x9 = 729 which means 9³ = 729.

Six years ago,the average age of A,B,C and D was 30 years. When E joined them, the average of all five becomes 40 years. What is the age of E?

Answers

Answer:

The age of E is 40

Step-by-step explanation:

When E didn't join them, the average age was 30,that is six years ago. But present making 36.

But when E joined, the average age is now 40.

Answer:

E is 56 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume E joined them now.

(A - 6 + B - 6 + C - 6 + D - 6)/4 = 30

(A + B + C + D + E)/5 = 40

(A + B + C + D - 24)/4 = 30

A + B + C + D - 24 = 120

A + B + C + D = 144

(A + B + C + D + E)/5 = 40

A + B + C + D + E = 200

144 + E = 200

E = 56

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 4.2333.... ----------(I)

Number of digit after decimal is 2 ( 4 , 3). So multiply both sides by of equation 100

100x = 423.333..... (II)

One digit (3) is repeating.So, multiply by both sides of equation (I) by 10

10x = 42.333....... -----(III)

Subtract Equation (III) from (II)

(II)     100x = 423.333......

(III)        10x =  42.333......  {Subtract}

         90x   = 381

Formula for the volume of a sphere: V = 4/3 x pi x r^3

Hope this helps!

Answer:

288 pi in ^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a sphere is given by

V = 4/3 pi r^3 where r is the radius

V = 4/3 pi *( 6)^3

V = 4/3  pi (216)

Kraig deposited money into a money market account. It has an interest of 12% and is compounded annually. Kraig thought 3% would be the equivalent quarterly interest rate. Is Kraig correct? If he is, explain why. If he is not correct, state what the equivalent quarterly interest rate. Explain.

Answers

Answer:

If the amount is P, with the interest rate of 12%, the interest over the year is:

P*(1.12) - P = 0.12P

In this case the quarterly interest rate is:

0.12P/4 = 0.03P

With the same amount and 3% quarterly rate, the yearly interest would be:

P*(1.03)^4 - P = 0.1255P

The quarterly interest rate in this case is:

0.1255P/4 = 0.031375P

If the quarterly interest rate is r, it should be little less than 3% to yield a 12% yearly rate.

So Kraig is wrong.
