Answer: AD/CD = 2/5

Explanation:

Triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEC on the basis of AA(Angle angle)

Recall, if 2 triangles are similar, it means that the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal. Thus,

AB/DE = BC/EC = AC/DC

From the information given,

AB/DE = 7/5

Thus,

AC/DC = 7/5

AD + CD = AC

(AD + CD)/DC = 7/5

AD/DC + CD/DC = 7/5

AD/DC + 1 = 7/5

AD/DC = 7/5 - 1

AD/DC = 2/5

AD/CD = 2/5

X = -135°, cos 2x = _______
Ket [755]

Answer:

cos 2 x=1-sin^2 x

Step-by-step explanation:

x=-135°

cos 2x=cos (-270)=cos (-270+360)=cos 90=0

or cos 2x=1-2sin ²x=1-2(sin (-135))²

=1-2(-sin 135)²

=1-2(sin 135)²

=1-2(sin (180-45))²

=1-2(sin²45)

=1-2 (\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}})²

=1-1

=0
