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>

Use the diagram to determine which statement is true
hichkok12 [17]
A. Area of ABCD - Area of DGA = Area of DEFG
s^2 - 1/2bh = s^2
(5)^2 - 1/2(4)(3) = (3)^2
25 - 1/2(12) = 9
25 - 24 = 9
1 not equal to 9

B. Area of ABCD - Area of GHIA = Area of DGA
s^2 - s^2 = 1/2bh
(5)^2 - (4)^2 = 1/2(4)(3)
25 - 16 = 1/2(12)
9 not equal to 6

C. Area of ABCD + Area of DGA = Area of GHIA
s^2 + 1/2bh = s^2
(5)^2 + 1/2(4)(3) = (4)^2
25 + 1/2(12) = 16
25 + 6 = 16
31 not equal to 16

D. Area of DEFG + Area of GHIA = Area of ABCD
s^2 + s^2 = s^2
(3)^2 + (4)^2 = (5)^2
9 + 16 = 25
25 = 25

The answer is D.

Checking my work. which one?
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

Dividing exponents you subtract.

3^8/3^5 = 3^3

3^3

Multiplying exponents when an exponent is raised to another.

(3^3)^3 = <u>3^9</u>

<h2>Final Answer is 3^{9}</h2><h2 />

Apparently this makes no sense according to comments, if you want a more indepth look into exponents search "The properties of exponents".
