Answer:

x = 20 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use similar triangles and ratios to solve

4.5 ft 6 ft

--------- = ---------------

15 ft x ft

Using cross products

4.5x = 15*6

4.5x =90

Divide each side by 4.5

4.5x/4.5 = 90/4.5

x =20

Prove that: (secA-cosec A) (1+cot A +tan A) =( sec^2A/cosecA)-(Cosec^2A/secA)<br>

Ksju [112]

Step-by-step explanation:

$(\sec A - \csc A)(1 + \cot A + \tan A)$

$=(\sec A - \csc A)\left(1 + \dfrac{\cos A}{\sin A} + \dfrac{\sin A}{\cos A} \right)$

$=(\sec A - \csc A)\left(1 + \dfrac{\cos^2 A + \sin^2 A}{\sin A\cos A} \right)$

$=(\sec A - \csc A)\left(\dfrac{1 + \sin A \cos A}{\sin A \cos A} \right)$

$=\left(\dfrac{\frac{1}{\cos A} - \frac{1}{\sin A}+\sin A - \cos A}{\sin A\cos A}\right)$

$=\dfrac{\sin A - \sin A \cos^2A - \cos A + \cos A\sin^2A}{(\sin A\cos A)^2}$

$=\dfrac{\sin A(1 - \cos^2A) - \cos A (1 - \sin^2 A)}{(\sin A\cos A)^2}$

$=\dfrac{\sin^3A - \cos^3A}{\sin^2A\cos^2A}$

$=\dfrac{\sin A}{\cos^2A} - \dfrac{\cos A}{\sin^2A}$

$=\left(\dfrac{1}{\cos A}\right)\left(\dfrac{\sin A}{1}\right) - \left(\dfrac{1}{\sin^2A}\right) \left(\dfrac{\cos A}{1}\right)$

$=\sec^2A\csc A - \csc^2A\sec A$

A candle maker uses a mold to make candles like

Mashutka [201]

Answer: 340 cm3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formulas:

Circumference = 2π radius

Replacing with the circumference value and solving for r:

31.416 =2π r

31.416 /2π =r

5cm =r

And then:

Volume of a cone = 1/3 x π x radius^2 x height

Replacing with the values given:

V = 1/3 π (5)^2 (13) = 340 cm3

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
