I would multiply both sides by negative one and then take the smaller of the two variables and subtract that from both sides, simplify and solve.

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

cos^2\theta + sin^2\theta = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(\frac{b}{r})^2  + (\frac{a}{r})^2

Required

Use the expression to prove a trigonometry identity

The given expression is not complete until it is written as:

(\frac{b}{r})^2  + (\frac{a}{r})^2  = (\frac{r}{r})^2

Going by the Pythagoras theorem, we can assume the following.

  • a = Opposite
  • b = Adjacent
  • r = Hypothenuse

So, we have:

Sin\theta = \frac{a}{r}

Cos\theta = \frac{b}{r}

Having said that:

The expression can be further simplified as:

(\frac{b}{r})^2  + (\frac{a}{r})^2  = 1

Substitute values for sin and cos

(\frac{b}{r})^2  + (\frac{a}{r})^2  = 1 becomes

cos^2\theta + sin^2\theta = 1

The letters of the alphabet are written on cars and placed in a brown paper bag. What is the probability of drawing a vowel, rep
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

25 / 676

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 5 vowels in the alphabets, and there are 26 alphabets in total as a whole.

The probability of drawing a vowel kb first trial is going to be

5 / 26, total number of vowels and total number of alphabets as a whole.

Again, we're told to replace the picked vowel, and pick another vowel, so that will once again be

5 / 26.

To get the final answer, we multiply both answers by each other

5 / 26 * 5 / 26 = 25 / 676.

Therefore, the probability has been found to be 25 / 676

If m angle ECD is six less than five times m angle BCE, and mangle BCD = 162º. find each
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

let ∠BCE = x then ∠ECD = 5x - 6 and

∠BCE + ∠ECD = ∠BCD, substitute values

x + 5x - 6 = 162, that is

6x - 6 = 162 ( add 6 to both sides )

6x = 168 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 28

Hence

∠BCE = x = 28°

∠ECD = 5x - 6 = (5 × 28) - 6 = 140 - 6 = 134°
