The correct question is
The hypotenuse and one of the legs of a right triangle form an angle that has a cosine of √<span>2/2 . 
What is the measure of the angle? 

Let
</span>∅--------> the angle
cos ∅=√2/2<span>
cos </span>∅=[distance of one of the leg/hypotenuse]
[distance of one of the leg/hypotenuse]=√2/2

<span>I could say that
</span>distance of one of the leg=√2
and 
hypotenuse=2
so
<span>applying the Pythagorean theorem
</span>c=hypotenuse=2
a=√2
b=?
c²=a²+b²-------> b²=c²-a²------> b²=2²-(√2)²-----> b²=2-----> b=√2

therefore
if a=b
then 
the angle ∅=45°

the answer is the option
<span>b.45 degrees</span>

For the following geometric sequence, find the explicit formula. {1, -3, 9, ...} an = -3 · an - 1 where a1 = 1 an = -3 · an - 1

{ 1,-3,9...}

an = a1 * r^(n-1)
a1 = first term = 1
r = common ratio = -3

so ur formula is : an = 1 * -3^(n-1)
