It is thanks to Amerigo Vespucci and Christopher Columbus that the land was discovered, and so spurred other countires such as Spain and Portugal into what now is called the Age of Discovery. Not be outdone by the other, both of these countries wished to seize control of the raw materials and land available for their own. What they did not expect was the wide trade off of contact with the Native Americans. This includes plants, animals, diseases, and even slaves.

<h3>As we know that sum of three angles of triangle is 180º.</h3>

\blue\starwe have

angle \: a + angle \: b+ angle \: c= 180 \\

a + 45 + 90 = 180 \\ a = 180 - 135 \\ a = 45

<h3>\blue\star The angles a and c are equal so,</h3>
  • cb = ab. [ sides opp to equal angles are equal]

so x is also 16

<h3>\blue\starNow we have two side we can easily find the third side by P.G.T</h3>
  • {AC}^{2} = {BC}^{2} + {AB}^{2}
  • {AC}^{2} = {16}^{2} + {16}^{2}
  • {AC}= \sqrt{512}

<h3>so the r is root 512 and x is 16.</h3>

Hope it helpa

When Earth is the closest to the sun,the Northern Hemisphere is in winter. Why is this true?
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Explanation:

The Earth is closest to the Sun every January, but it is the fact that the north pole of the Earth's axis is tilted away from the Sun at that time of year which causes it to be winter in the northern hemisphere. B. Given the effects of precession, will this still be the case in 13,000 years?
