By using trigonometric relations, we will see that:

AC = 15.6 in

AB = 8.4 in.

<h3>How to get the measures of the other two sides of the right triangle?</h3>

Here we have the right triangle where:

B = 90°

C = 40°

BC = 10 in.

Notice that is the adjacent cathetus to the angle C, then we can use the two relations:

  • sin(a) = (adjacent cathetus)/(hypotenuse).
  • tan(a) = (opposite cathetus)/(adjacent cathetus).

Where:

  • hypotenuse = AC
  • opposite cathetus = AB.

Then we will have:

sin(40°) = 10in/AC.

AC = 10in/sin(40°) = 15.6 in

tan(40°) = AB/10in

tan(40°)*10in = AB = 8.4 in.

So we can conclude that for the given right triangle we have:

AC = 15.6 in

AB = 8.4 in.

Multiply the sum of -13/8 and 5/12 by their difference.​
REY [17]

Answer:

1421/576

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum = - 13/8 + 5/12 = - 39/24 + 10/24 = - 29/24

Difference = - 13/8 - 5/12 = - 39/24 - 10/24 = - 49/24

Sum * Difference = (-29/24)*(-49/24) = 1421/576
