Answer:

The distance between the Earth and the Moon is equal to the distance between the Sun and the Moon multiplied by the sine of angle x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

EM -----> the distance between the Earth and the Moon.

y -----> the distance between the Sun and the Moon.

we know that

In the right triangle of the figure

The sine of angle x is equal to divide the opposite side to angle x (distance between the Earth and the Moon.) by the hypotenuse ( distance between the Sun and the Moon)

so

sin(x)=EM/y

Solve for EM

EM=(y)sin(x)

therefore

The distance between the Earth and the Moon is equal to the distance between the Sun and the Moon multiplied by the sine of angle x

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Set is a well defined collection of objects .

We can express set in roaster form or set - builder form

<u>Roaster Form</u>

We express elements within curly brackets using commas between the elements .

<u>Set Builder Form</u>

In set builder form , all the elements of the set possess a common property which is not possess by elements outside the set .

We describe the elements of set using a symbol x which is followed by a colon . After colon , we write property possessed by the element and then enclosed the description within curly brackets .

Define set as follows : { x ∈ H : H is set of all the humans and x is either Tanya or Nelson }
