Answer:

option a (2,2,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to notice that it tells us that the scale is 1/5.

This means that the measures of the new triangle will be 5 times smaller than those of the other triangle.

Now we just have to take the measurements of the sides of the triangle and multiply them by 1/5 or divide them by 5

AB = 10 DE = 10/5 = 2

BC = 10 EF = 10/5 = 2

AC = 25 DF = 25/5 = 5

DE = 2

EF = 2

DF = 5

(2, 2, 5)

If sin tetha=root3/2, what is cos tetha?

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

The value of cos Ф is ± $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

There are important rules for sin Ф and cos Ф

sin²Ф + cos²Ф = 1

sin²Ф = 1 - cos²Ф

cos²Ф = 1 - sin²Ф

∵ sin Ф = $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

∴ sin²Ф = $(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2})^{2}$

∴ sin²Ф = $\frac{3}{4}$

→ By using the third rule above

∵ cos²Ф = 1 - sin²Ф

∴ cos²Ф = 1 - $\frac{3}{4}$

∴ cos²Ф = $\frac{1}{4}$

→ Take square root for both sides

∴ cos Ф = ± $\frac{1}{2}$

∴ The value of cos Ф is ± $\frac{1}{2}$

A discount store takes 50% off of the retail price of a desk. For the store's holiday sale, it takes an additional 20% off of al

Serhud [2]

We are given the retail price of desk as $320. The store takes 50% off of the retail price of desk, then its price would become half of the original.

So its new price would be $160.

Now it says that it takes an additional 20% off of all furniture on store's holiday sale. So we need to cut off 20% from new price $160.

Holiday discount = 20% of $160 = 0.2 × 160 = 32.

Final selling price would be = $160 - $32 = $128.

So $128 is the final answer.
