If cot x° = three fourths, what is the value of b?
b = 4
b = 5
b = 6
b = 7

b = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Cot x = adjacent/opposite = LM/MN = 3/4

LM = 10.5

10.5/MN = 3/4

∴ MN = 10.5/(3/4) = 10.5*4/3 = 14

But MN = 2b

∴ 2b = 14

∴ b = 14/2 = 7

b=7

step-by-step explanation:

given that ab is divided into equal parts as

ac, cd, de, ef, fg, gh, hi, ib.

from this we find that f is the midpoint of ab.

so using mid point formula we find

f = (3,7)

similarly considering fb, we get

h = mid point of fb = ((6,6) and g, mid point of fh is

g = (9/2, 13/2)

i is mid point of hb

so i =(15/2,11/2)
