Answer:

C.) 5, 12, 13

Step-by-step explanation:

In a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the two shorter sides must equal the square of the longest side (Pythagoras).

a² + b² = c²

We can test each set of numbers to see which one fits.

A.) 8² +  12² =   16²

    64 + 144 = 256

           208 ≠ 256

B.) 6² +  7² =  8²

   36 + 49 = 64

           85 ≠ 64

C.) 5² +  12² =   13²

    25 + 144 = 169

            169 = 169

The numbers 5, 12, and 13 could represent the lengths of the sides of a right triangle.

D.) 16² +    32² =    36²

   256 + 1024 = 1296

              1280 ≠ 1296

Find the cube roots of 125(cos 288° + i sin 288°)
kow [346]
Let r(cos O + i sin O)  be a cube root of 125(cos 288 + i sin 288)
then
r^3(cos O + i sin O)^3  =  125(cos 288 + i sin 28)

so r^3 = 125  and  cos 3O + i sin 3O  =  cos 288 + i sin 288

so r  = 5  and 3O = 288 + 360p and O = 96 +  120p

so one cube root is   5 (cos 96 + i sin 96)

Im a little rusty at this stuff Its been a long time.

Im not sure of the other 2 roots

sorry cant help you any more
