Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
our basic Pythagorean identity is cos²(x) + sin²(x) = 1
we can derive the 2 other using the listed above.
1. (cos²(x) + sin²(x))/cos²(x) = 1/cos²(x)
1 + tan²(x) = sec²(x)
2.(cos²(x) + sin²(x))/sin²(x) = 1/sin²(x)
cot²(x) + 1 = csc²(x)
A. sin^2 theta -1= cos^2 theta
this is false
cos²(x) + sin²(x) = 1
isolating cos²(x)
cos²(x) = 1-sin²(x), not equal to sin²(x)-1
B. Sec^2 theta-tan^2 theta= -1
1 + tan²(x) = sec²(x)
sec²(x)-tan(x) = 1, not -1
false
C. -cos^2 theta-1= sin^2
cos²(x) + sin²(x) = 1
sin²(x) = 1-cos²(x), our 1 is positive not negative, so false
D. Cot^2 theta - csc^2 theta=-1
cot²(x) + 1 = csc²(x)
isolating 1
1 = csc²(x) - cot²(x)
multiplying both sides by -1
-1 = cot²(x) - csc²(x)
TRUE
8/6 = 14/x
8x = 84
x = 10.5
The length of GD = 10.5
** I think that is right not positive
3 because Negative numbers equal less than 0. See the number line attached below. In the number line, all the negative numbers are on the left of the zero and all the positive numbers are on the right of the 0.
Answer: 81 - 74 = 7
