Answer:  44.8\°

Explanation:

We have a right triangle with sides AB, BC=5cm and AC=13cm (the hypotenuse). Let's apply the Pithagorean Theorem to find AB:

AC^{2}=AB^{2} + BC^{2}  (1)

AB^{2}=AC^{2} - BC^{2} (2)

AB^{2}=(13cm)^{2} - (5cm)^{2} (3)

AB=12cm (4)

Now that we know the value of each side of the triangle, we will use the trigonometric function sine to find the angles C and A (angle B is 90\° remembering we are talking about a right triangle):

For angle C:

sinC=\frac{Oppositeside}{Hypotenuse}

sinC=\frac{12}{13}  (5)

C=sin^{-1}(\frac{12}{13})  (6)

C=67.38\°  (7)

For angle A:

sinA=\frac{5}{13}  (8)

A=sin^{-1}(\frac{5}{13})  (9)

A=22.62\°  (10)

Calculating the difference between both angles:

C-A=67.38\°- 22.62\°

C-A=44.76\° \approx 44.8\°

Jupiter has 67 moons, more than any other body in the solar system. What physical attribute of Jupiter causes it to have so many
Harrizon [31]

The correct answer is - it's mass.

Jupiter is the biggest planet in our Solar System, but only the biggest, also it has the biggest mass by far from all the planets. Because of its very big mass Jupiter has a very strong gravitational pull. The strong gravitational pull contributes to the attraction and keeping of lots of bodies that can not escape it, instead they revolve around the planet. These objects, or space bodies, that the gravitational pull of the planet managed to trap, became the moons, or rather natural satellites, of Jupiter.

Which is the best evidence to support the sentence? Wildfires are essential to the continued survival of some plant species. (1
tangare [24]

Answer: Plants such as tree cones depend on wildfires in order to pass through a regular life cycle.

Explanation:

Some Tree cones need wildfires to enable them pass through a life cycle because the heat produced melts the substance that covers the pines thereby enabling the pines to open up and spread their seeds.

Wildfires are therefore essential to the continued survival of trees such as these because without wildfires, these trees might never go through the entirety of their life cycle by dispersing seeds and if this continues it would spell doom for the survival of the species.
