If 60 is a factor of n², then √60 is a factor of n. However, n is a whole number, so its factors are whole numbers.

Simplify √60:
\sqrt{60}=\sqrt{4 \times 15}=2\sqrt{15}

If 2√15 is a factor of a whole number n, then √15 must be another factor to make it a whole number.

2\sqrt{15} \times \sqrt{15}=2 \times 15=2 \times 3 \times 5

If 60 is a factor of n², then 2, 3, and 5 must be factors of n. The factors of n² are the squares of the factors of n, so 2, 2, 3, 3, 5, and 5 must be factors of n².

Now, if 2, 2, 3, 3, 5, and 5 are factors of n², then:
* 5×5=25 must also be its factor
* 2×2×3×3=36 must also be its factor
* 2×2×5×5=100 must also be its factor

Only 16 may not be a factor of n². The answer is A.

3sina-4sin4a/sin5a<br> if a=-45 degree
Ierofanga [76]

Given:

The given expression is:

\dfrac{3\sin a-4\sin 4a}{\sin 5a}

To find:

The value of the given expression at a=-45.

Solution:

We have,

\dfrac{3\sin a-4\sin 4a}{\sin 5a}

Substituting a=-45, we get

\dfrac{3\sin (-45)-4\sin [4(-45)]}{\sin [5(-45)]}

=\dfrac{-3\sin (45)+4\sin (180)}{-\sin (225)}

=\dfrac{-3\sin (45)+4\sin (180)}{-\sin (180+45)}

=\dfrac{-3\sin (45)+4\sin (180)}{\sin (45)}

On substituting \sin (180), we get,

=\dfrac{-3\sin (45)+4(0)}{\sin (45)}

=\dfrac{-3\sin (45)+0}{\sin (45)}

=\dfrac{-3\sin (45)}{\sin (45)}

=-3

Therefore, the value of the given expression at  a=-45 is -3.
