Answer:

f(x) = x² - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given x = a is a zero of the polynomial f(x) then (x - a) is a factor

Given zeros are x = 3 and x = - 3, then corresponding factors are

(x - 3) and (x - (- 3) ), that is

(x - 3) and (x + 3)

The function is then the product of the factors, that is

f(x) = (x - 3)(x + 3) ← expand using FOIL

f(x) = x² - 9

s2008m [1.1K]

In a triangle, the nomenclature is that a variable side a is opposite of the angle A. we can use the cosine law to determine the value of cosine A.
a2 = b2 + c2 -2bc cos a25 = 36 + 64 - 2*6*8 * cos acos a = 25/32
