Direct democracy or pure democracy is a form of democracy in which people decide on policy initiatives directly. This differs from the majority of currently established democracies, which are representative democracies.

Direct democracy is a form of democracy in which everyone has an equal say in the actions of the government. Essentially, everybody votes on everything the government does.

Although this seems like a great idea (Yay! Equal representation!), Direct Democracy is extremely slow.

I'm sure you know about how long it takes for Congress to pass a bill. There's only 485 people in Congress, so imagine how long it'd take if there were millions of people voting on the bill!

Giving the right triangle JKL what is the value of cos (L)
kvasek [131]
<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

For the right triangle to be given in name of three letters such as this, the right angle is most likely to be in the center, in this case letter K. To determine the common trigonometric properties of a certain angle we may use of the mnemonics SOH - CAH - TOA. 

                         sin angle = opposite side / hypotenuse

                         cosine angle = adjacent side / hypotenuse

                         tangent angle = opposite side / adjacent side

If we let small letter j, k, and l be the sides opposite to angles J, K, and L, respectively. Then, the cos (L) will be,

                                      cos (L) = j/k

A. Define devolution and explain how one political process can result in<br> devolution.
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

Devolution, the transfer of power from a central government to subnational (e.g., state, regional, or local) authorities. Devolution usually occurs through conventional statutes rather than through a change in a country’s constitution; thus, unitary systems of government that have devolved powers in this manner are still considered unitary rather than federal systems, because the powers of the subnational authorities can be withdrawn by the central government at any time (compare federalism).
