Answer: a. Positive, because the products (3)(-3) and (-2)(4) are negative, and the product of two negative numbers is positive
Step-by-step explanation: It is also possible to rearrange the factors.
(3)(4) = 12 a positive number.
(-3)(-2) = 6, a positive number. Again "a negative times a negative is a positive" --Jaime Escalante, <em>Stand and Deliver</em>
Now you have two positive numbers: 12×6 = 72
The product is positive either way.
From the setup of the problem, the "length of the top of the bookcase, measured along the attic ceiling" will be the hypotenuse of a right triangle, the length "AB". We have both the angle between AB and AC and the length of AC (3.24 meters), so we can use trigonometric identities.
The cosine of the 40 degree angle between AB and AC is equivalent to the length of AC divided by the length of AB. Equivalently, we have:

where "h", the hypotenuse, is the length we want. Rearranging the formula to solve for h we have that

which is 4.2295... meters. Converting to centimeters (multiplying by 100) we have that h = 422.95... centimeters, or if we round the value, h = 423 centimeters.
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
You want to know the value of i^4.
<h3>Powers of i</h3>
The fourth power of i, √(-1), can be found the same way the value of any fourth power can be found: carry out the multiplication.
i^4 = i·i·i·i = -1·i·i = -i·i = -(-1) = 1
The fourth power of i is 1.

As you can see from the evaluation process, ...
i¹ = i
i² = -1 . . . . . definition of i
i³ = -i
i⁴ = 1
The sequence repeats for higher powers.
Answer:
D. Obtuse.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that in
and
. We are asked to classify our given
.
We can see that angle M and angle P are acute angles as their measure is less than 90 degrees.
Let us find the measure of angle P using angle sum property of triangles, which states that sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.
So we can set an equation as:

Upon substituting our given values we will get,




As measure of angle N is 98 degrees, so angle N is an obtuse angle.
Since a triangle having an angle that measures more than 90 degrees is called an obtuse triangle, therefore,
is an obtuse triangle and option D is the correct choice.
Answer:
<em>120 degrees</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the diagram attached.
From the diagram;
Interior angles are m∠BCA and m∠ABC
Exterior angle is m∠DAB
The sum of interior angle of the triangle is equal to exterior
m∠BCA +m∠ABC =m∠DAB
Given
m∠ABC = 70
m∠BCA =50
m∠DAB = 70 + 50
m∠DAB = 120 degrees
<em>Hence the measure of m∠DAB is 120 degrees</em>
