Answer:

a_n = a_{n-1} \cdot (-\frac{1}{3})

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit formula for the geometric sequence is given by:

a_n = a_1 \cdot r^{n-1}

where,

a_1 is the first term

r is the common ratio to the following terms.

As per the statement:

Given the explicit formula for geometric sequence:

a_n = 9 \cdot (\frac{-1}{3})^{n-1}

On comparing with [1] we have;

a_1 = 9 and r = -\frac{1}{3}

The recursive formula for geometric sequence is given by:

a_n = a_{n-1} \cdot r

Substitute the given values we have;

a_n = a_{n-1} \cdot (-\frac{1}{3})

Therefore, the recursive formula for the geometric sequence is, a_n = a_{n-1} \cdot (-\frac{1}{3})

Answer:

a_0 = -27

a_n = a_(n-1) * (-1/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

First evaluate given formula at n=0 and specify that as starting value

Then find how to get from n-1 to n by comparing two values. In this case the next value is formed by multiplying by -1/3.

Answer:

1) 34º

2) 52º

3) 56º

4) 94º

Step-by-step explanation:

let 3 be x

let 1 be y

let 2 be z

let 4 be j

180=86+38+x              56=x

90=56+y                     34=y

180=86+j                     94=j

180=34+z+94              52=z
