The cosine of angle B is: cos(B) = AC / AB = 20/29

The Pythagorean Theorem, a well-known geometric theorem that states that the sum of the squares of the legs of a right-angled triangle is equal to the square of the hypotenuse (the opposite side of the right angle) - that is, in familiar algebraic notation. , a2 + b2 = c2 .

In a right triangle, the cosine of an angle is defined as the ratio of the adjacent side to its hypotenuse. In this case, angle B is the angle we are interested in, and the adjacent side is side AC. Using the Pythagorean theorem, we find the length of side AC:

AC² = AB²+ BC²

AC² = 29² - 21²

AC² = 400

AC = 20

Therefore, the cosine of angle B is:

cos(B) = AC / AB = 20/29

Other trigonometric ratios of angle B can be found using the following formulas:

sin(B) = BC / AB = 21/29

tan(B) = BC / AC = 21/20

csc(B) = AB / BC = 29 / 21

sec(B) = AB / AC = 29/20

bed (B) = AC / BC = 20 / 21  

Thus, the trigonometric ratios of angle B are:

sin(B) = 21/29

cos(B) = 20/29

tan(B) = 21/20

csc(B) = 29/21

sec(B) = 29/20

crib(B) = 20/21

Answer:

The odds that are less generous are 19:1, 14:1, and 15:1.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to see which numbers are greater than 11.

The evaluation of the functions using piecewise function gives:

f(-9) =  8

f(0) =  2

f(6) =  7

f(-6) =  4

f(3) =  4.5

f(9) = -6

To evaluate the functions using piecewise function, we have to the condition they satisfy. That is:

For f(-9), x = -9. Thus, x≤ -6. So use f(x) = (-4/3)x - 4 to evaluate f(-9). That is:

f(-9) =  (-4/3)*(-9) - 4

f(-9) =  8

For f(0), x = 0. Thus, -6 x ≤ 6. So  use f(x) = (5/6)x + 2 to evaluate f(0). That is:

f(0) = (5/6)*0 + 2

f(0) =  2

For f(6), x = 6. Thus, -6 x ≤ 6. So use f(x) = (5/6)x + 2 to evaluate f(6). That is:

f(6) = (5/6)*6 + 2

f(6) =  7

For f(-6), f(x) = (-4/3)x - 4:

f(-6) = (-4/3)*(-6) - 4

f(-6) =  4

For f(3), f(x) = (5/6)x + 2:

f(3) = (5/6)*3 + 2

f(3) =  4.5

For f(9), x = 9. Thus, x > 6. Use f(x) = -2x + 12:

sin (pi/4)  = sqrt(2) / 2 = .707

  you either just know this after a time or you can use a calculator (in RADIAN mode)

Answer:

sin(π/4) = sin(45°) = 0.707106781186548 ≈ 0.707 (rounded to 3 decimal places)

Step-by-step explanation:

here are the steps:

Convert π/4 to degrees: π/4 * (180/π) = 45°

sin(45°) = opposite/hypotenuse

sin(45°) = opposite/hypotenuse = adjacent/hypotenuse = 1/√2

sin(45°) = 1/√2 * √2/√2 = √2/2

Therefore, sin(π/4) = sin(45°) = √2/2 ≈ 0.707 (rounded to 3 decimal places).

The polynomial function with the given properties is:[tex]f(x) = x^3 - 7x^2 + 9x - 17[/tex]

A polynomial function is a function that contains only non-negative integer powers or only positive integer exponents in the equation, such as a  quadratic equation, a cubic equation, etc. For example, 2x + 5 is a polynomial whose exponent is 1.

Since the polynomial has real coefficients and one of its zeros is complex, the complex conjugate of 4+ i, which is 4-i, must also be  zero. So the three zeros of the polynomial are -1, 4+i and 4-i.  To form a polynomial with these zeros, we start by writing  the factors of the polynomial:

(x + 1) (x - 4 - i) (x - 4 + i)

We can simplify this expression by multiplying  the factors:

[tex](x + 1) (x^2 - 8x + 17)[/tex]

Expanding this, we get:

[tex]x^3 - 7x^2+ 9x - 17[/tex]

The polynomial function is p(x) = (-17/5)x³ + (34/5)x² + (33/5)x - 16

A polynomial function is a function that contains only non-negative integer powers or only positive integer exponents in the equation, such as a  quadratic equation, a cubic equation, etc. For example, 2x + 5 is a polynomial whose exponent is 1.

If -1 is a zero of the polynomial function, then x+1 is a factor of the polynomial. Similarly, if 4+i is a zero, then 4-i is also a zero, because complex roots always occur in conjugate pairs. Therefore, (x+1) and (x - 4 - i)(x - 4 + i) = (x - 4)² + 1 are factors of the polynomial. We can then construct the polynomial function by multiplying these factors:

p(x) = A(x+1)(x - 4 - i)(x - 4 + i)

where A is a constant that we need to determine, and p(x) is the desired third-degree polynomial function.

To determine A, we can use the y-intercept given in the problem. The y-intercept is the value of p(0), so:

p(0) = A(0+1)(0 - 4 - i)(0 - 4 + i) = A(17+4i)

But we also know that p(0) = -17, so:

-17 = A(17+4i)

Solving for A:

A = -17/(17+4i) = (-17/5) + (68/5)i

Therefore, the polynomial function we seek is:

p(x) = [(-17/5) + (68/5)i](x+1)(x - 4 - i)(x - 4 + i)

Expanding the product and simplifying, we get:

p(x) = (-17/5)x³ + (34/5)x² + (33/5)x - 16

This is a third-degree polynomial with only real coefficients, -1 and 4+i are two of the zeros, and the y-intercept is -17.

the actual area of the base of the fountain, in square feet, after it is built is approximately 1.3 square feet (rounded to the nearest tenth of a square foot).

How to solve the question?

To find the actual area of the base of the fountain, we need to convert the measurements from the blueprint to the actual measurements.

First, we need to find the radius of the circular base. The diameter of the base is given as 40 centimeters on the blueprint, so the radius is half of that, or 20 centimeters.

Next, we need to convert the scale of the blueprint from centimeters to feet. The scale is given as three centimeters to four feet, which can be simplified to a ratio of 3:4. To convert from centimeters to feet, we need to multiply by a conversion factor of 1 foot/30.48 centimeters, since there are 30.48 centimeters in a foot.

So, to find the actual radius of the circular base in feet, we multiply the blueprint radius (20 centimeters) by the conversion factor:

20 centimeters * (1 foot/30.48 centimeters) = 0.656168 feet

Now that we have the actual radius of the circular base, we can find the actual area of the base. The formula for the area of a circle is A = πr^2, where A is the area and r is the radius. Plugging in the actual radius we just found, we get:

A = π(0.656168 feet)^2 = 1.34977 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the function is defined by:

f(x) = 16 + a(3^(kx))

We need to find the real numbers a and k such that f(0) = 21 and f(4) = 61. Using the given values of f(0) and f(4), we can form a system of two equations:

f(0) = 16 + a(3^(k(0))) = 21

f(4) = 16 + a(3^(k(4))) = 61

Simplifying the first equation, we get:

16 + a(3^0) = 21

16 + a = 21

a = 5

Substituting this value of a into the second equation, we get:

16 + 5(3^(4k)) = 61

5(3^(4k)) = 45

3^(4k) = 9

We know that 3^2 = 9, therefore

4k = 2

=> k = 2/4

=> k = 1/2

Therefore, the real numbers a and k that satisfy the given conditions are a = 5 and k = 1/2. So the function is:

f(x) = 16 + 5(3^(x/2))

The solution to the equation give us an approximate that x = 1.55.

To solve this equation, we can start by subtracting 4 from both sides to isolate the exponential term:

3.5^x + 4 - 4 = 11 - 4

This simplifies to:

3.5^x = 7

Next, we can take the logarithm of both sides with base 3.5 to eliminate the exponent:

log(3.5^x) = log(7)

Using the property of logarithms that log(a^b) = b*log(a), we can rewrite the left side as:

x*log(3.5) = log(7)

Now, we can solve for x by dividing both sides by log(3.5):

x = log(7) / log(3.5)

Plugging in the values, we get:

x = 0.84509804001 / 0.54406804435

x = 1.55329475566

x ≈ 1.55.
