(x + 9) (x - 9)

follow the FOIL method

first

x(x) = x^2

outside
x(-9) = -9x

inside
9(x) = 9x

last
9(-9) = -81

x² - 9x + 9x - 81
simplify: x² - 81

x² - 81 is your answer

hope this helps

it is not - 18, because you are multiplying, not adding, and even if you are adding, the answer wouldn't have a -18

hope this helps

Find the value of csc 0, if cos 0= - 2/3 ; 180 < 0< 270

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

apply pythagorean theorem to find sin of theta.

$\cos( \frac{2}{3} ) {}^{2} + \sin(x) {}^{2} = 1$

$(\frac{4}{9}) {}^{2} + \sin(x) {}^{2} = 1$

$\sin(x) {}^{2} = \frac{5}{9}$

$\sin(x) = \frac{ \sqrt{5} }{3}$

Find the reciprocal to find find csc.

$\frac{3}{ \sqrt{5} }$

rationalize the denominator.

$\frac{3}{ \sqrt{5} } \times \frac{ \sqrt{5} }{ \sqrt{5} } = \frac{3 \sqrt{5} }{5}$

Csc is negative in the 3rd quadrant.

so the answer is

$- \frac{3 \sqrt{5} }{5}$

D is the answer.

if the sum of interior angles of a polygon is 3600 find the number of sides of it. plz want steps too

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

22 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is

sum = 180° (n - 2) ← n is the number of sides

Here sum = 3600° , then

180° (n - 2) = 3600° ( divide both sides by 180° )

n - 2 = 20 ( add 2 to both sides )

n = 22
