Answer:

the answer will be Root 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 = 1^2 + 1^2

We take the unmentioned side as 1 because it is an isosceles triangle and thus 2 of the sides will have the same measure

x^2 = 1 + 1

x^2 = 2

taking square root on both the sides

x = root of 2

Given sin θ = 3/5 what is sec θ?

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this you must know that by definition secant is:

$sec(\theta)=\frac{1}{cos(\theta)}$

Furthermore:

$sin(\theta)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}\\\\cos(\theta)=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$

Based on this information we know that 3 = opposite and 5 = hypotenuse. Assuming this is a right triangle we can determine the adjacent side by Pythagorean Theorem.

$c^2=a^2+b^2$

Where c is the hypotenuse, a is adjacent and b is opposite. Therefore,

$c^2=a^2+b^2\\\\a=\sqrt{c^2-b^2} \\\\a=\sqrt{5^2-3^2} \\\\a=4$

And so the adjacent side of this triangle is 4. Going back to the definition of secant we can now know that:

$sec(\theta)=\frac{1}{cos(\theta)}=\frac{1}{\frac{4}{5}}=\frac{5}{4}$

What is the least common denominator of the rational expressions below? 4/x^2-7x + 1/x^2-4x-21

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

x-7

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the GCF of x^2-7x (which is x) and factor x^2-4x-21

2. Multiply 1/(x-7)(x+) by x and 4/x(x-7) by (x+3) to get (x-7) as both denominators
