Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Factor Difference of Squares

(x² - 1)(x² + 1)

Step 2: Factor Difference of Squares for non-complex binomial root

(x - 1)(x + 1)(x² + 1)

And we have our answer!

1) Are the following lines parallel, perpendicular, or neither?

Maru [420]

In 1)

Line 1 has following coordinates.
(0,0) ; (1,-2) ; (2,-4)

Line 2 has following coordinates.
(0,0) ; (1,0.5) ; (2,1)

Line 3 has following coordinates.
(0,1) ; (1,1.5) ; (2,2)

If you'll draw the lines, you'll observe that Line 1 is perpendicular to Line 2 and Line 3 and Line 2 and Line 3 are parallel to each other.

So,
Option D will be correct.

Can someone answer for me please, if you're great at math.

Assuming that c is the length of AB (as is usually the case in the angle-side notation for triangles):
If sin(35) = 12/c, we can transform by multiplying both sides by c, and dividing both by sin(35) to get
c = 12/sin(35)
Evaluating using a calculator gives 20.92 units.
