We need to figure out how much string would be left, after taking away the first two pieces.
We know that the first piece is 20 inches long, so we can say that there is 52-20 inches left, or 32 inches.

The second piece is between 12 and 18 inches, meaning that there would be between 32-12 and 32-18 inches left for the third piece, or 20 and 14 inches. This means that the third piece would be at least 14 inches long, but no more than 20, since we don’t have more string than that (20+12+20=52, and 20+14+18=52)

So we can say that x is greater or equal to 14, but less than or equal to 20, or:

14<=x<=20 (“<=“ is written like a normal “<“ sign with a line _ right under it)

THE FUNCTION ARCSINE CAN ALSO BE DEFINED AS?
vodomira [7]
The arcsine, \sin^{-1}, is the inverse of the \sin function. This means that it takes as <em>inputs </em>what would usually be <em>outputs </em>for the \sin function and produces as <em>outputs </em>what would usually be <em>inputs </em>for the \sin function.

This can be particularly useful when you're trying to find an angle on a right triangle, but you've only been given the lengths of the sides. To find any angle \theta in a right triangle, just take \sin^{-1} \frac{o}{h}, where o is the side opposite \theta and h is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.
