Answer:
7.2
Step-by-step explanation:
First differences:
0.8-0.2, 1.8-0.8, 3.2-1.8, 5.0-3.2
0.6, 1.0, 1.4, 1.8
Second differences:
1.0-0.6, 1.4-1.0, 1.8-1.4
0.4, 0.4, 0.4
For the next term, add 0.4 to the last term from the first differences, and add the sum to the last term of the quadratic sequence:
0.4+1.8=2.2
2.2+5.0=7.2
∴ The next term in the sequence is 7.2

The area of a trapezoid.





Answer: see proof below
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Given: cos 330 = 
Use the Double-Angle Identity: cos 2A = 2 cos² A - 1

Proof LHS → RHS:
LHS cos 165
Double-Angle: cos (2 · 165) = 2 cos² 165 - 1
⇒ cos 330 = 2 cos² 165 - 1
⇒ 2 cos² 165 = cos 330 + 1
Given: 

Divide by 2: 

Square root: 
Scratchwork: 

Since cos 165 is in the 2nd Quadrant, the sign is NEGATIVE

LHS = RHS 

because -2/5 is closer to 0 than -5/12
