The quastion is asking us to determine the measure of angle M in a right triangle LMN. We know that angle N is a right angle and that LM = 76 ( Hypotenuse ) and MN = 40 ( Adjacent ). We will use trigonometry: cos M = Adjacent / Hypotenuse = 40 / 76 = 0.5263158; M = cos^(-1) 0.563158; M = 58.242° = 58° 15`. Answer: The measure of angle M is<span> 58°15`.</span>

If x^2+y^2=73 and xy=24, what is the value of (x+y)^2? And Why?

nydimaria [60]

(x+y)^2=x^2+y^2+2xy=73+2*24=73+48=121

⇒ (x+y)^2=121

Find dy/dx for (y^2/x) = 18 by implicit differentiation

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

dy/dx = y/(2x)

Step-by-step explanation:

The product formula can be used, along with the power rule.

d(uv) = du·v +u·dv

__

d(y^2/x) = d(18)

2y·dy/x -y^2/x^2·dx = 0

2x·dy -y·dx = 0 . . . . . . . . multiply by x^2/y

dy/dx = y/(2x) . . . . . . . . add y·dx, divide by 2x·dx

Answer:

$Sin \angle A =0.80$

$Cos \angle A=0.60$

$Sin \angle B =0.60$

$Cos \angle B=0.80$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

I will answer this question using the attached triangle

Solving (a): Sine and Cosine A

In trigonometry:

$Sin \theta =\frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}$ and

$Cos \theta =\frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse}$

So:

$Sin \angle A =\frac{BC}{BA}$

Substitute values for BC and BA

$Sin \angle A =\frac{8cm}{10cm}$

$Sin \angle A =\frac{8}{10}$

$Sin \angle A =0.80$

$Cos \angle A=\frac{AC}{BA}$

Substitute values for AC and BA

$Cos \angle A=\frac{6cm}{10cm}$

$Cos \angle A=\frac{6}{10}$

$Cos \angle A=0.60$

Solving (b): Sine and Cosine B

In trigonometry:

$Sin \theta =\frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}$ and

$Cos \theta =\frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse}$

So:

$Sin \angle B =\frac{AC}{BA}$

Substitute values for AC and BA

$Sin \angle B =\frac{6cm}{10cm}$

$Sin \angle B =\frac{6}{10}$

$Sin \angle B =0.60$

$Cos \angle B=\frac{BC}{BA}$

Substitute values for BC and BA

$Cos \angle B=\frac{8cm}{10cm}$

$Cos \angle B=\frac{8}{10}$

$Cos \angle B=0.80$

Using a calculator:

$A = 53^{\circ}$

So:

$Sin(53^{\circ}) =0.7986$

$Sin(53^{\circ}) =0.80$ -- approximated

$Cos(53^{\circ}) = 0.6018$

$Cos(53^{\circ}) = 0.60$ -- approximated

$B = 37^{\circ}$

So:

$Sin(37^{\circ}) = 0.6018$

$Sin(37^{\circ}) = 0.60$ --- approximated

$Cos(37^{\circ}) = 0.7986$

$Cos(37^{\circ}) = 0.80$ --- approximated
