Answer:

The length of the hypotenuse ≈ 39.7 cm

Explanation:

Since the given triangle is a right-angled triangle, this means that we can apply the Pythagorean theorem.

The equation for Pythagorean calculation is:

(hypotenuse)² = (first leg)² + (second leg)²

In the given, we have:

first leg = 30 cm

second leg = 26 cm

Substitute with the givens in the above equation to get the hypotenuse as follows:

(hypotenuse)² = (30)² + (26)²

(hypotenuse)² = 1576

This means that:

either hypotenuse = √1576 = 39.69 ≈ 39.7 cm ..........> accepted

or hypotenuse = -√1576 = -39.69 ......> rejected as length can't be negative

Hope this helps :)

Cosx+1/sin^3x=cscx/1-cosx
ANTONII [103]
<span> I am assuming you want to prove:
csc(x)/[1 - cos(x)] = [1 + cos(x)]/sin^3(x).

 </span>
<span>If we multiply the LHS by [1 + cos(x)]/[1 + cos(x)], we get:
LHS = csc(x)/[1 - cos(x)]
= {csc(x)[1 + cos(x)]/{[1 + cos(x)][1 - cos(x)]}
= {csc(x)[1 + cos(x)]}/[1 - cos^2(x)], via difference of squares
= {csc(x)[1 + cos(x)]}/sin^2(x), since sin^2(x) = 1 - cos^2(x).

 </span>
<span>Then, since csc(x) = 1/sin(x):
LHS = {csc(x)[1 + cos(x)]}/sin^2(x)
= {[1 + cos(x)]/sin(x)}/sin^2(x)
= [1 + cos(x)]/sin^3(x)
= RHS.

Dakota has four tents kilogram of clay he divided the clay to make eight equal size pots how many grams of clay are in each pot
sukhopar [10]
Answer:
There are 2.22 grams of clay are in each pot.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Dakota has 4/10 kg of clay. He divides the clay to make 888 equal-sized pots.
Now, to find the number of grams of clay are in each pot.
Dakota has clay =
So, by using conversion factor we convert it into grams:

Quantity of clay he has = 400 grams.
Number of equal-sized pots to make = 888.
Now, to get the quantity of grams of clay are in each pot we divide number of equal-sized pots to make by quantity of clay he has:
Therefore, there are 2.22 grams of clay are in each pot.
