A scalene triangle has base of 5cm. The angle opposite to the base is 63°, and a second angle is 72°. Find the area of the traingle

Using the sine rule it's possible to find the length opposite to the 72° angle. Therefore: 5/(sin63)=x/(sin72) x=5sin(72)/sin(63)=5.34 At this point, the third angle is needed. Since a triangle has a tota...

Let f(x)=x^2-ax+a-1 and g(x)=x-5. The graphs of f and g intersect at one distinct point. Find the possible values of a.

If the two graphs intersect, it means that they will share the same y and x coordinates at one particular point. (I will draw diagram to show point).

Therefore, you can set f(x)=g(x) so that x^2 -...

If the fourth term in an arithmetic sequence is, u4 = 12.5, the tenth is u10 = 27.5. Find the common difference and the 20th term.

The equations for an arithmetic sequences are 1) Un = u1 + (n - 1)d 2) Sn = n/2(2*u1 + (n-1)d) 3) Sn = n/2(u1 + un)

The first step is to calculate the common difference, d. This is done using the f...
