A net is just a 3D shape made into a 2D shape. So when you have a net, it is easier to make sure you count up all the sides without missing one or counting one twice.
When we use arcsine, we are finding the angle while giving the trigonometric ratio.
Arcsin(u) = theta can be rewritten as:
sin(theta) = u
Sine is opposite over hypotenuse, so u/1 means that the side opposite to theta (the y value) is u, and the hypotenuse is 1.
We can use Pythagorean Theorem to find the adjacent (x value).
1^2 - u^2 = x^2
x = sqrt(1-u^2)
Back to the original question, we are trying to find cos(arcsin(u)). We just solved all the sides for our triangle using arcsin(u). Now we need to do cos(u).
Cosine is adjacent over hypotenuse.
So our answer is sqrt(1-u^2)/1
Or just sqrt(1-u^2)
Hi there!

We are given the equation:
x² - 2y = 7
To verify if each ordered pair is apart of the function, we can plug in their respective x and y values:
1. (5)² - 2(8) = 7
25 - 16 = 9 ≠ 7. This is NOT correct.
2. (-1)² - 2(-3) = 7
1 + 6 = 7. This is correct.
3. (-4)² - 2(-11.5) = 7
16 + 23 = 39 ≠ 7. This is NOT correct.
4. (1.2)² - 2(-2.78) = 7
1.44 +5.56 = 7. This is correct.
Thus, only 1 and 4 are the correct answers.
The answer is 12 edges :)
