The numbers are 24 and 72

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Let the small number be x. Then the larger number = 3x. Difference = 48

⇒ 3x - x = 48

⇒ 2x = 48

⇒ x = 24

⇒ 3x = 3 × 24 = 72

Answer:

sin( -∅ )

- 1 / csc ( ∅ )

1 / csc ( -∅ )

Step-by-step explanation:

Since sin(x) is and odd function (a function where f(-a) = f(a) ).

-sin( ∅ ) = sin( -∅ )

On the other hand, we know that sin( ∅ ) = 1 / csc ( ∅ )

Another odd function, so the same as before applies.

-sin( ∅ ) = -1 / csc ( ∅ )

-sin( ∅ ) = 1 / csc ( -∅ )
