Answer:
16 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
They climbed 8 meters down
Then 8 meters up to get back to ground level.
Step 2:
8+8=16
(tanθ + cotθ)² = sec²θ + csc²θ
<u>Expand left side</u>: tan²θ + 2tanθcotθ + cot²θ
<u>Evaluate middle term</u>: 2tanθcotθ =
= 2
⇒ tan²θ + 2+ cot²θ
= tan²θ + 1 + 1 + cot²θ
<u>Apply trig identity:</u> tan²θ + 1 = sec²θ
⇒ sec²θ + 1 + cot²θ
<u>Apply trig identity:</u> 1 + cot²θ = csc²θ
⇒ sec²θ + csc²θ
Left side equals Right side so equation is verified
Answer: Choice C) AA similarity
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We are given that angle ABE = angle ECD since they are both right angles (square marker)
Angle AEB = angle CED as they are vertical angles
we have two pairs of congruent angles, leading us to be able to use the AA (angle angle) similarity theorem
Kx-3y=k
y=4x+1 ( we will put it in 1st equation )
kx - 3 (4x+1)=k
kx - 12 x - 3 =k
kx - 12 x = k+3
x(k-12) = k+3
x=

Also y=

We can not divide with zero.
k-12=0
k=12For k= 12 equations have no solutions.
