Mathematics

Annette [7]3 years ago

Answer:

<h2>a = 16</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the picture.

The formula of an area of a trapezoid is:

A=\dfrac{b_1+b_2}{2}\cdot h

b_1,\ b_2 - bases

h - height

We have:

A=128,\ b_1=a+2,\ b_2=a-2,\ h=8

Substitute:

128=\dfrac{a+2+a-2}{2}\cdot8\\\\128=\dfrac{2a}{2}\cdot8

128=8a          <em>divide both sides by 8</em>

16=a\to a=16

Review the steps of the proof of the identity
koban [17]

Answer:

step 2

and then also in step 3 compensating the error in step 2

Step-by-step explanation:

I think I just answered this for another post.

sin(a - b) = sin(a)cos(b) - cos(a)sin(b)

so, step 1 is correct :

sin(A - 3pi/2) = sin(A)cos(3pi/2) - cos(A)sin(3pi/2)

but step 2 suddenly and incorrectly switched that central "-" to a "+".

yes, sin(3pi/2) = -1, but that is still an explicit factor in step 2. so it was not used to flip the central operation from subtraction to addition, and therefore this change was a mistake.

then, in step 3, another error was made by just ignoring the "-" sign of "-1" and still keeping the central "+" operation. this error compensated for the error in step 2 bringing us back by pure chance to the right result.
