The positions of the sun, earth and shooting star form a right angled triangle, where distance between earth and sun is 'y', and the angle 'x°' is given

Now, in a right angled triangle using trigonometry, we can determine a side of the triangle is one of the sides and one of the angles is known

Here, if we use cos x = \frac{Base}{Hypotenuse} we can determine the distance between the shooting star and the sun. This can be done because we know that the base is 'y', the angle is x° and the hypotenuse represents the distance between the sun and the shooting star

Note: cos values for each x are definite.

Here is a distribution of 6 observations sorted in ascending order the mean of this distribution is 13. Question pictured below.
posledela
From the mean of 13,
the value of the stated summation will be given by:
(5.7-13)+(10.2-13)+(11.9-13)+(13.3-13)+(17.6-13)+(19.3-13)
=-7.3+(-2.8)+(-1.1)+0.3+4.6+6.3
=0
Hence the summation indicated also known as mean absolute deviation is 0.
