Answer:

x=75

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey There!

If you didn't know the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles of a triangle

So essentially what I'm saying is that

2x-5=70+x

step 1 add 5 to each side

-5+5 cancels out

70+5=75

now we have

2x=70+x

step 2 subtract x from each side

x-x cancels out

2x-x=x

we're left with

x=75

Prove the following identity : Sin α . Cos α . Tan α = (1 – Cos α) (1 + Cos α)

Let's work on the left side first. And remember that
the tangent is the same as sin/cos.

sin(a) cos(a) tan(a)

Substitute for the tangent:

[ sin(a) cos(a) ] [ sin(a)/cos(a) ]

Cancel the cos(a) from the top and bottom, and you're left with

[ sin(a) ] . . . . . [ sin(a) ] which is [ sin²(a) ] That's the left side.

Now, work on the right side:

[ 1 - cos(a) ] [ 1 + cos(a) ]

Multiply that all out, using FOIL:

[ 1 + cos(a) - cos(a) - cos²(a) ]

= [ 1 - cos²(a) ] That's the right side.

Do you remember that for any angle, sin²(b) + cos²(b) = 1 ?
Subtract cos²(b) from each side, and you have sin²(b) = 1 - cos²(b) for any angle.

So, on the right side, you could write [ sin²(a) ] .

Now look back about 9 lines, and compare that to the result we got for the left side .

They look quite similar. In fact, they're identical. And so the identity is proven.

Whew !
