Factorise x^2-y^2-2x+6y-8

1 answer:

3 0

X^2 - y^2 - 2x + 6y - 8
= (x^2 - 2x + 1) - (y^2 - 6y + 9) - 8 - 1 + 9 
= (x - 1)^2 - (y - 3)^2 
= [(x - 1) - (y - 3) ] [(x - 1) + (y - 3)] 
= (x - 1 - y + 3) ( x - 1 + y - 3) 
= (x - y + 2) (x + y - 4)

Use the image below to answer the following question. Find the value of sin x° and cos y°. What relationship do the ratios of si

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

Trigonometric ratios

$\sf \sin(\theta)=\dfrac{O}{H}\quad\cos(\theta)=\dfrac{A}{H}\quad\tan(\theta)=\dfrac{O}{A}$

where:

$\theta$ is the angle
O is the side opposite the angle
A is the side adjacent the angle
H is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle)

To find sin x and cos y, we must first find the length of the hypotenuse (PO) of the given right triangle.

To do this, use Pythagoras' Theorem:

$a^2+b^2=c^2 \quad \textsf{(where a and b are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse)}$

Given:

a = 6
b = 8
c = PO

$\implies 6^2+8^2=PO^2$

$\implies PO^2=100$

$\implies PO=\sqrt{100}$

$\implies PO=10$

Using the found value of the hypotenuse and the trig ratios quoted above:

$\implies \sf \sin(x)=\dfrac{6}{10}=\dfrac{3}{5}$

$\implies \sf \cos(y)=\dfrac{6}{10}=\dfrac{3}{5}$

Therefore, $\sf \sin(x)=\cos(y)$

What is 87.319 to the nearest tenth?

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

87.3

The answer to get 87.3 is to see if the number in the hundredths place (this case 1) is bigger or the same as the value of 5. If it is round the tenth up but if not then cut the rest of the numbers off.
