Answer:

Check Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram for this question is missing, but from the setup of the question, it is evident that the triangle to obtain cos α from is a right angled triangle.

It is evident from the options provided that the right angled triangle is one with dimensions of 20, 21 and 29.

These three dimensions perfectly form a Pythagorean triple.

So, the value of cos α now depends on the setup of the triangle.

From trigonometric relations, if α is an angle in the right angled triangle, cos α is given mathematically as

Cos α = (Adj/Hyp)

For this Pythagorean triple,

Hyp = hypotenuse side = 29

Adj = Adjacent side = 20 or 21, depending on the triangle's setup.

If the adjacent is 20,

Cos α = (20/29), option A is correct.

If the adjacent is 21,

Cos α = (21/29), option C is correct.

Hope this Helps!!!

Answer:

−8s4u2+2s2ux+6x2

Step-by-step explanation:

=(6x+8us2)(x+−s2u)

=(6x)(x)+(6x)(−s2u)+(8us2)(x)+(8us2)(−s2u)

=6x2−6s2ux+8s2ux−8s4u2

=−8s4u2+2s2ux+6x2
