True
<span>Cos(A+B)=CosACosB-SinASinB
therefore Cos(A+A)= CosACosA - SinASinA
= Cos^2A - Sin^2A</span>

For the solution/answer of this question, we will use the double angle formula which can be derived as follows:

cos(2a)=cos(a+a)=cos(a)\times cos(a)-sin(a)\times sin(a)=cos^2(a)-sin^2(a)

Now, the above expression can be simplified to:

cos(2a)=cos^2(a)-sin^2(a)=cos^2(a)-(1-cos^2(a)) (Because sin^2a=1-cos^2a)

Therefore, we can further simplify it to:

cos(2a)=cos^2a-1+cos^2a=2cos^2a-1 which is the proof which is required.

Thus, we have proved that:

cos(2a)=2cos^2a-1

Thus, this equality is true for all values of a.

A farmer has a bale of hay with mass of 36 kilograms. How many milligrams of hay are in the bale?
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

KILO=1000.............. MILLI= thousandth

1kg is 1000 grams

1 milligram is one thousandth of a gram, so a 1 gram = 1000mg.

in 36 kg, then there are 36 * 1000 grams.

and in (36*1000) grams there are (36*1000)*1000 mg, 36,000,000 mg.

How to solve this question. I need to show my work for this question.
IrinaK [193]

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that 1 dozen = 12 so 4 dozen cookies has a total of 48 cookies. We are going to use the following ratios to solve the problem:

\left(\dfrac{3\:\text{eggs}}{48\:\text{cookies}}\right) and \left(\dfrac{48\:\text{cookies}}{3\:\text{eggs}}\right)

a) 12\:\text{eggs}×\left(\dfrac{48\:\text{cookies}}{3\:\text{eggs}}\right) = 192\:\text{cookies}

b) 18 dozen cookies = 216 cookies

216\:\text{cookies}×\left(\dfrac{3\:\text{eggs}}{48\:\text{cookies}}\right) = 13.5\:\text{eggs}
