The answers are A and C
PS you should give me the brainliest andswer
Mesure of inscribed angle: mesure angle LMN = mesure ARC (MLN)/2
Hence angle MLN = 64°
Throughout all of these steps I'm only going to alter the left hand side (LHS). I am NOT going to change the right hand side (RHS) at all.
Before I change the LHS of the original equation, let's focus on the given identity
cot^2(x) + 1 = csc^2(x)
Since we know it's an identity, we can subtract 1 from both sides and the identity would still hold true
cot^2(x) + 1 = csc^2(x)
cot^2(x) + 1-1 = csc^2(x)-1
cot^2(x) + 0 = csc^2(x)-1
cot^2(x) = csc^2(x)-1
So we'll use the identity cot^2(x) = csc^2(x)-1
---------------------------------------------
Now onto the main equation given
cot^2(x) + csc^2(x) = 2csc^2(x) - 1
cot^2(x) + csc^2(x) = 2csc^2(x) - 1 .... note the term in bold
csc^2(x)-1 + csc^2(x) = 2csc^2(x) - 1 .... note the terms in bold
[ csc^2(x) + csc^2(x) ] - 1 = 2csc^2(x) - 1
[ 2csc^2(x) ] - 1 = 2csc^2(x) - 1
2csc^2(x) - 1 = 2csc^2(x) - 1
The bold terms indicate how the replacements occur.
So the original equation has been proven to be an identity because the LHS has been altered to transform into the RHS
It gives 3 choices of toppings, and asks for the number of ways to arrange two toppings. Using the formula they give, n = 3 and k =2. So:
Thus, the answer is 3.
