Answer:

No, I do not agree with the conjecture because 1 is not a prime number.

Step-by-step explanation:

A prime number is one that can be divided by 1 and itself only. Thus it can be expressed in 2 factors only, 1 and the number itself.

Examples are; 2, 3, 5, 13, 19 , 23 etc.

So, 2 = 1 x 2

      3 = 1 x 3

     23 = 1 x 23

Prime numbers must be expressed as the product of 1 and the number.

The conjecture that every prime number can be expressed as the product of two prime numbers is false. Because 1 is not a prime number, since it has no 2 factors.

Will give brainliest D:
Monica [59]

<u>Answer</u>:

Given below.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

1) Hypotenuse

2) Using Pythagoras theorem:

              35² + 12² = c²

                c = √1225+144

                c = √1369

                 c = 37  ....this is the length of missing side.

Here given that opposite is 35 , adjacent is 12 , hypotenuse is 37.

3) sin(θ) = opposite/hypotenuse

   sin(θ) = 35/37

4) cos(θ) = adjacent/ hypotenuse

    cos(θ) = 12/37

5) tan(θ) = opposite/adjacent

      tan(θ) = 35/12
