a.
In order to find the common ratio, we just need to divide a term by the term that comes before it.
So using the terms 20 and -5, we have:

b.
The recursive rule can be found with the formula:

Where an is the nth term and q is the ratio. So we have:

c.
The explicit rule can be written as:

Where an is the nth term, a1 is the first term and q is the ratio. So:
36 degree :
Step-by-step explanation:
if the value of angleA= x , angleB=2x , angle C=3x and angle D=4x . the value of x is 36 degree
This is one pathway to prove the identity.
Part 1

Part 2

Part 3

As the steps above show, the goal is to get both sides be the same identical expression. You should only work with one side to transform it into the other. In this case, the left side transforms while the right side stays fixed the entire time. The general rule is that you should convert the more complicated expression into a simpler form.
We use other previously established or proven trig identities to work through the steps. For example, I used the pythagorean identity
in the second to last step. I broke the steps into three parts to hopefully make it more manageable.
