Csc²x - 1
1/sin²x - 1
1/sin²x - sin²x / sin²x
(1 - sin²x) / sin²x
Recall that sin²x + cos²x = 1
So cos²x = 1 - sin²x
So we can replace numerator to cos²x
cos²x / sin²x
= cot²x
Final answer: cot²x
Answer: No, the triangles are not similar. They aren't even triangles.
Step-by-step explanation: A is a diamond, which cannot be considered a triangle until it is split in half. 8 and 9 would be a triangle if the diamond wouldn't have been there. B and C is a parallelogram.
Find the area of the square first
Area = Length x Width
Area = 12 x 9
Area = 108
Find the area of the right triangles
Area = 1/2(Length x Base)
Area = 1/2(9 x 2)
Area = 1/2(18)
Area = 9
Since there is 2 triangles multiply by 2
9 x 2 = 18
Now add
108 + 18 = 126
126 is your area
