Answer:

45°, 45°, 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the vectors to represent each sides

AB =<3-1, 6-0>=<2,6>

AC = < -1-1, 4 - 0 > = < -2, 4>

Magnitude of the vectors

AB = √(2²+6²) = 6.32

AC = √ ((-2)² + 4²) = 4.47

cosθ = vector of AB × vector AC / ( Product of the magnitude of AB and AC) = 2 × (-2) + (6×4)/ (6.32×4.47) = 20 / 28.2504

θ = arcos(20 / 28.2504 ) approx = 45°

Magnitude of the vectors

BA =<1-3,0-6>=<-2,-6>

BC =<-1-3,4-6>=<-4,-2>

Magnitude of the vectors equals

BA = √((-2)² + (-6)²) = 6.325

BC = √((-4)² + (-2)²) = 4.4721

cosθ = (-2×-4) + (-6 ×-2) / (6.325 × 4.4721) = 20 / 28.286

θ = arcos (20 / 28.286 ) = 45°

Magnitude of the vectors

CB =<3--1, 6-4>=<4,2>

CA=<1--1,0-4>=<2,-4>

Magnitude of the vector =

CB = √(4² + 2²) = 4.4721

CA = √(2² + (-4)²) = 4.4721

cosθ = (4×2) + (2×-4) / (4.4721×4.4721) = 0

θ = arcos 0 = 90°

To control the traffic during Ramadan month, a Police Sergeant is assigned to control the traffic

m_a_m_a [10]

To complete the table it is necessary to know the possibilities that the sergeant has to change or remain in an intersection. The probabilities (depending on the box) are:

0
0.2
0.25
0.33

<h3>How to calculate the probability of intersection change? </h3>

To know the probability of intersection change, it is necessary to locate the police officer at one of the intersections. Subsequently, count how many possibilities of change you have, for example: 3 possibilities and finally add the possibility of remaining in the intersection as shown below:

Intersection 3 has 3 possibilities of changing towards intersections 2, 8 and 4. Additionally, it has the possibility of staying at intersection 3, that is, it has 4 possible decisions.

To know the probability we divide the number 1 (because it is only a decision that we have to make) and divide it by the number of possibilities (4).

1 ÷ 4 = 0.25

According to the image we can infer that in some intersections they only have 3, 4 and 5 possibilities, so the probability of change will be different as shown below:
