   Using the cosine rule

 a² =  b² +  c² -2 bc cos (/)

 Simplifying the equation in terms of cos (/),

 cos (/)= (b² + c² - a²)/(2bc) 

 If cos(/) > 0

 (b² + c² - a²)/(2bc) > 0 -----------------(b² + c² - a²) > 0 

the resulting inequality should be

<span>(b² + c² ) > a² 

The answer is the letter </span><span>C. b^2 + c^2 > a^2</span>

<span>cos(/)>0, that implies that a^2+b^2!=c^2. If that were the case, cos(/) would be 0. cos(/)>0 implies that the adjacent is greater than the hypotenuse. So, the opposite plus the adjacent is greater than the hypotenuses. So, then, that implies b^2+a^2>c^2. So, A.</span>

Pls help with #14 and #15!!!Asap 15 points
inna [77]

Answer:

14. -g + 10, 15. 12k + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming you want to simplify the equation. For 14, we distribute -2. This gets us -2g + 10 + g. We can simplify that to -g + 10. We can't simplify that, so our answer is complete. For 15, we combine 8k and 4k to get 12k + 3. That can't be simplified, so we are done.

Very easy!! help!! urgent!! its on ratio
masha68 [24]

Answer:

A and B are correct

Step-by-step explanation:

if x:y is 1:3 then x is 1 and y is 3

1/3 of 3 is 1 so A is correct

3/4(1+3) is 3 so B is correct

But

1/4 × 3 is not 1 so C is not correct

3/4 ×1 is not 3 so D isn't correct
