Draw a right triangle ABC, with m(CAB)=∅.

Let CB=7 units, AC=8 units, so by the Pythagorean theorem:

AB= \sqrt{ AC^{2} - BC^{2} }= \sqrt{ 8^{2} - 7^{2} }=  \sqrt{64-49} = \sqrt{15} (units)

so we have drawn a triangle where sin∅=7/8

in this triangle, cot∅=(adjacent side)/(opposite side)=\frac{ \sqrt{15} }{7}

Answer: <span>square root of fifteen divided by seven</span>

AURORKA [14]
1.  Reduce  <span>3x2-6x-240   to    x^2 - 2x - 80

2.  Use " ^ " to indicate exponentiation

3.  Factor  </span>x^2 - 2x - 80 using completing the square:

     x^2 - 2x + 1^2 - 1^2 - 80

         (x+1)^2 - 1  - 80
          (x+1)^2 - 81
          (x+1)^2 - 9^2  = (x+1-9)(x+1 +9), or (x-8)(x+10)

Final answer, with all factors shown:      3(x-8)(x+10)
