Answer:

x = 13 and y = 13√3

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that sin Ф = opposite side / hypotenuse, and that

cos Ф = adjacent sice / hypotenuse.

if we recognize that the angle Ф is 30° here, then we know that:

x = opposite side = hypotenuse * sin 30° = 26*(1/2) = 13.

and....

y = adjacent side = hypotenuse*cos 30° = 26*√3/2 = 13√3

In summary, x = 13 and y = 13√3

(1/1+sintheta)=sec^2theta-secthetatantheta pls help me verify this

Xelga [282]

Answer:

See Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to verify the equation:

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{1+\sin\theta} = \sec^2\theta - \sec\theta \tan\theta$

To start, we can multiply the fraction by (1 - sin(θ)). This yields:

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{1+\sin\theta}\left(\frac{1-\sin\theta}{1-\sin\theta}\right) = \sec^2\theta - \sec\theta \tan\theta$

Simplify. The denominator uses the difference of two squares pattern:

$\displaystyle \frac{1-\sin\theta}{\underbrace{1-\sin^2\theta}_{(a+b)(a-b)=a^2-b^2}} = \sec^2\theta - \sec\theta \tan\theta$

Recall that sin²(θ) + cos²(θ) = 1. Hence, cos²(θ) = 1 - sin²(θ). Substitute:

$\displaystyle \displaystyle \frac{1-\sin\theta}{\cos^2\theta} = \sec^2\theta - \sec\theta \tan\theta$

Split into two separate fractions:

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{\cos^2\theta} -\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos^2\theta} = \sec^2\theta - \sec\theta\tan\theta$

Rewrite the two fractions:

$\displaystyle \left(\frac{1}{\cos\theta}\right)^2-\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}\cdot \frac{1}{\cos\theta}=\sec^2\theta - \sec\theta \tan\theta$

By definition, 1 / cos(θ) = sec(θ) and sin(θ)/cos(θ) = tan(θ). Hence:

$\displaystyle \sec^2\theta - \sec\theta\tan\theta \stackrel{\checkmark}{=} \sec^2\theta - \sec\theta\tan\theta$

Hence verified.

Showing algebraic support, find the value of x.

Travka [436]

Answer:

x = 52.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle on the left has 2 congruent sides, thus is isosceles

The base angles of an isosceles triangle are also congruent, thus

x = $\frac{180-75}{2}$ = $\frac{105}{2}$ = 52.5

How can I factorise expressions

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

The first step of factorising an expression is to 'take out' any common factors which the terms have. So if you were asked to factorise x² + x, since x goes into both terms, you would write x(x + 1) . This video shows you how to solve a quadratic equation by factoring.
