Answer:

The weight of pure gold in 258 g rams of 18- karat gold is 193.5 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pure percentage in the gold = 75%

The weight of the gold purchased = 258 g

Now, here the pure gold percentage is 75% of 258 g

75% of 258 grams = $\frac{75}{100} \times 258$

or, $\frac{3}{4} \times 258 = 193.5$

⇒75% of 258 grams = 193.5 grams

Hence, the weight of pure gold in 258 g rams of 18- karat gold is 193.5 grams.

Assuming the probability of a boy is 50%, then the probability of 5 boys is

(50%)(50%)(50%)(50%)(50%) = 3.125%.

(1/2)(1/2)(1/2)(1/2)(1/2) = 1/32

Sin A tan A/ 1 - cos A = 1+ sec A

aalyn [17]

$\text{L.H.S}\\\\=\dfrac{\sin A \tan A}{1- \cos A}\\\\\\=\dfrac{\sin A \cdot \tfrac{\sin A}{\cos A} }{ 1- \cos A}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~;\left[\tan A = \dfrac{\sin A }{\cos A}\right]\\\\\\=\dfrac{\tfrac{\sin^2 A}{ \cos A}}{1- \cos A}\\\\\\=\dfrac{\sin^2 A}{\cos A(1-\cos A)}\\\\\\=\dfrac{1-\cos^2 A}{\cos A( 1- \cos A)}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~;[\sin^2 A + \cos^2 A = 1]\\\\\\$

$=\dfrac{(1+ \cos A)(1 - \cos A)}{\cos A(1 - \cos A)}\\\\\\=\dfrac{1+ \cos A}{ \cos A}\\\\\\=\dfrac{1}{\cos A} + \dfrac{\cos A}{ \cos A}\\\\\\=\sec A + 1 \\\\\\=1+ \sec A\\\\\\=\text{R.H.S}\\\\\text{Proved.}$
