State the degree x^3y^2+7x^2y^5-3xy^8

KATRIN_1 [288]

The main formula for a polynomial ax^my^n+...
the degree is the sum of the highest degree of the polynomial, it is m+n

<span>the degree of x^3y^2+7x^2y^5-3xy^8 is 9, because </span><span>3xy^8 is the term where we can find a highest value of power (8)
so the degree is degree of x, it is 1 + degree of y (it is 8)

Find the longer leg of the triangle.

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Choice A. 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle in question is a right triangle.

The length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite to the right angle) is given.
The measure of one of the acute angle is also given.

As a result, the length of both legs can be found directly using the sine function and the cosine function.

Let $\text{Opposite}$ denotes the length of the side opposite to the $30^{\circ}$ acute angle, and $\text{Adjacent}$ be the length of the side next to this $30^{\circ}$ acute angle.

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned}\text{Opposite} &= \text{Hypotenuse} \times \sin{30^{\circ}}\\ &=2\sqrt{3}\times \frac{1}{2} \\&= \sqrt{3}\end{aligned}$ .

Similarly,

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned}\text{Adjacent} &= \text{Hypotenuse} \times \cos{30^{\circ}}\\ &=2\sqrt{3}\times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \\&= 3\end{aligned}$ .

The longer leg in this case is the one adjacent to the $30^{\circ}$ acute angle. The answer will be $3$ .

There's a shortcut to the answer. Notice that $\sin{30^{\circ}} < \cos{30^{\circ}}$ . The cosine of an acute angle is directly related to the adjacent leg. In other words, the leg adjacent to the $30^{\circ}$ angle will be the longer leg. There will be no need to find the length of the opposite leg.
