\sin(\alpha-\beta)=\sin\alpha\cos\beta-\cos\alpha\sin\beta

\sin\alpha=\dfrac{21}{29}\implies \cos^2\alpha=1-\sin^2\alpha=\dfrac{400}{841}

Since \alpha lies in quadrant II, we have \cos\alpha, so

\cos\alpha=-\sqrt{\dfrac{400}{841}}=-\dfrac{20}{29}

\cos\beta=\dfrac{15}{17}\implies\sin^2\beta=1-\cos^2\beta=\dfrac{64}{289}

\beta lies in quadrant I, so \sin\beta>0 and

\sin\beta=\sqrt{\dfrac{64}{289}}=\dfrac8{17}

So

\sin(\alpha-\beta)=\dfrac{21}{29}\dfrac{15}{17}-\left(-\dfrac{20}{29}\right)\dfrac8{17}=\dfrac{475}{493}

What values complete each statement?
aliya0001 [1]

For this case we have:

By properties of the radicals \sqrt {a} = a ^{\frac {1} {2}}

So:

(\sqrt {7}) ^ 2 = (7 ^ {\frac {1} {2}}) ^ 2.

Now, for power properties we have:

(b ^ {\frac {c} {d}}) ^ e = b ^ {\frac {c * e} {d}}

Thus, (7 ^ {\frac {1} {2}}) ^ 2 = 7 ^ {\frac {2} {2}} = 7

So:

7 ^ {\frac {1} {2}} = \sqrt {7}in its radical form

Answer:

(\sqrt {7}) ^ 2 = (7 ^ {\frac {1} {2}}) ^ 2= 7 ^ {\frac {2} {2}} = 7 in its simplest form.

7 ^ {\frac {1} {2}} = \sqrt {7}in its radical form
