Answer:

Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

- tan 2x = -2tanx / (1 - tan^2x)

Using the identity tan^2x = sec^2x - 1 and substituting for tan^2x:

- tan 2x = -2 tanx / (1 - (sec^2x - 1))

= 2 tanx / ( - 1(sec^2x + 2))

= 2 tan x / (sec^2 x - 2)

Answer:

<h2>Option A</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>To round to ONE decimal place means one significant number should be after the decimal point (.)</h3><h3>Option A is the correct answer because if I a zero leads after the decimal point then it isn't significant.</h3><h3>The zero in option A is insignificant but other numbers are and it says to ONE decimal place so option A is the correct answer.</h3><h3>Hope this helps.</h3>

Good luck ✅.

A rectangular corral is enclosed using 120 m of fencing. The corral uses the side of a barn as one of its sides, so fencing is r

Yuliya22 [10]

The dimensions would be 40 m by 40 m.

To maximize area and minimize perimeter we make the dimensions as close to equal as possible. Since we only need fencing on 3 sides, 120/3 = 40; we can use 40 for each side.

Can some one explain how to do this?

Delvig [45]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent and sine ratios in the right triangle EFG

tan60° = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$ = $\frac{FG}{EG}$ = $\frac{28}{EG}$ ( multiply both sides by EG )
