Answer:

6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

A = lw

l = w + 2

48 = lw

48 = (w + 2)w

48 = w² + 2w

0 = w² + 2w - 48

Quadratic equation results =

w = 6 or w = -8

But the measure could not be negative, therefore w = 6

Find the exact value of the trigonometric function given that sinU=-7/25 and cosV=-4/5 (Both U and V are in Quadrant III)

Contact [7]

cosU:-

$\\ \rm\longmapsto \sqrt{1-sin^2U}=\sqrt{1-49/625}=24/25$

As U lies in Q3

cosU=-24/25

sinV

$\\ \rm\longmapsto \sqrt{1-cos^2V}=\sqrt{1-16/25}=3/4$

As V lies in Q3

sinV=-3/5

So

sin(V-U)=sinVcosU-cosVsinU=(-3/5)(-24/25)-(-4/5)(-7/25)=72/125-28/125=72-28/125=<u>4</u><u>4</u><u>/</u><u>1</u><u>2</u><u>5</u>
cos(U-V)=cosUcosV+sinUsinV=(-24/25)(-4/5)+(-7/25)(-3/5)=96/125+21/125=117/125

What is the area of the square?

12 x 8 is the area of the whole thing but you subtract 12 because of the missing 6x2 part of the square

Find the slope and y- intercept of x=-4

klemol [59]

Answer:

By definition, the slope of a vertical line is undefined. Because the value of x is always equal to 4 it is never equal to 0 therefore there is no y-intercept.

Find the third side in simplest radical form:

Mkey [24]

Answer: 53

Step-by-step explanation:

They are both right legs. Use a^2+b^2=c^2.

A= 28^2 B=45^2

A= 784 B= 2025. 2025+ 784= 2809 (radical 2809) To simplified is 53
