Which expression is equivalent to sec^2x − 1? a. cot2x b. tan2x c. csc2x d. cos2x
Nesterboy [21]
Sec^2 x - 1 = tan^2x

Proof:
Sec^2x = 1+ tan^2x

1/cos^2x = 1 + sin^2x/cos^2x

<span>1/cos^2x - sin^2x/cos^2x = 1
</span>Using common denominator:
(1-sin^2x)/cos^2x = 1
sin^2x + cos^2 x = 1
cos^2 x = 1 - sin^2x
Substituting : 
cos^2x/<span>cos^2x = 1
</span>1 = 1

The side of a square is 11.2 cm. what is the length of the diagonal
Snowcat [4.5K]
You can work out the diagonal by using Pythagoras theorem. (a^2 = b^2 + c^2)

As it is a square, all 4 sides are the same so it would be:
11.2^2 + 11.2^2 = diagonal^2
250.88 = diagonal^2
Square root both sides to get what the diagonal is equal to.
diagonal is 15.8 cm
