Let x = your number.

6x = x^2 - 27. Subtract 6x from each side.

0 = x^2 - 6x - 27. Factor

0 = (x-9) (x+3). Set each term equal to zero

(x+3) = 0. Subtract 3 from each side.

x = -3. This is the negative solution.

(x-9) = 0. Add 9 to each side.

x = 9. This is the positive solution.

If cos x = sin(20 + x) ° and 0°
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

x = 35°

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is as following

cos x = sin(20 + x)°  and  0° < x  < 90°  ,   find X?

==============================================

cos x = sin(20 + x)°

sin and cos are co-functions,

which means that: cos x = cos [90 - (20 + x)]

∴ x = 70 - x

∴ 2x = 70

∴ x = 35°

======================

Note: cos θ = sin ( 90 - θ )
