Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let CD = x

(x + 40)/2 = 31 The midline is 1/2 the sum of the 2 bases. multiply by 2 on both sides.

x + 40 = 31 * 2

x + 40 = 62 Subtract 40 from both sides.

x +40-40 = 62 - 40 Combine

x = 22

Check

(22 + 40)/2

62 / 2

31 = PQ

Find sec(2Arcsin (-1/3))

gavmur [86]

Think of arcsin (-1/3) as an angle, and call it "theta." The the original problem becomes "find sec [ 2 theta ]"
1 1
which is the same as "find ------------------ " or --------------------------------------
cos[2 theta] (cos theta)^2 - (sin theta)^2

Recall that theta = the angle whose sine is -1/3. Thus, sin theta = -1/3 and cos theta = 2sqrt(2) / 3.

So we now have:

1
-------------------------------------------
2 sqrt(2) -1
[------------------- ]^ 2 - [ ------- ]^2
3 3

which boils down to:

1 1
----------------- = ---------------- = 9/7 (answer)
8 1 7/9
------ - --------
9 9
