Answer:
The Moon's orbit around Earth has a sidereal period of 27.3 days. During each synodic period of 29.5 days, the amount of visible surface illuminated by the Sun varies from none up to 100%, resulting in lunar phases that form the basis for the months of a lunar calendar. The Moon is tidally locked to Earth, which means that the length of a full rotation of the Moon on its own axis causes its same side (the near side) to always face Earth, and the somewhat longer lunar day is the same as the synodic period. That said, 59% of the total lunar surface can be seen from Earth through shifts in perspective due to libration.[17]
The most widely accepted origin explanation posits that the Moon formed about 4.51 billion years ago, not long after Earth, out of the debris from a giant impact between the planet and a hypothesized Mars-sized body called Theia. It then receded to a wider orbit because of tidal interaction with the Earth. The near side of the Moon is marked by dark volcanic maria ("seas"), which fill the spaces between bright ancient crustal highlands and prominent impact craters. Most of the large impact basins and mare surfaces were in place by the end of the Imbrian period, some three billion years ago. The lunar surface is relatively non-reflective, with a reflectance just slightly brighter than that of worn asphalt. However, because it has a large angular diameter, the full moon is the brightest celestial object in the night sky. The Moon's apparent size is nearly the same as that of the Sun, allowing it to cover the Sun almost completely during a total solar eclipse.
Answer:
False
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>According to the complex conjugate root theorem:</u>
if a complex number is a root of a polynomial, its conjugate is also the root of the polynomial
We are given all the roots of the polynomial and there is only one complex root
Since according to the complex conjugate root theorem, there can be either none or at least 2 complex roots of a polynomial
We can say that this set of roots of a polynomial is incorrect
Answer:
A discrete quantitative variable is one that can only take specific numeric values (rather than any value in an interval)
Step-by-step explanation:
A discrete quantitative variable is one that can only take specific numeric values (rather than any value in an interval), but those numeric values have a clear quantitative interpretation. Examples of discrete quantitative variables are number of needle punctures, number of pregnancies and number of hospitalizations.
Answer:
no problem?
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: see proof below
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Use the Double Angle Identity: sin 2Ф = 2sinФ · cosФ
Use the Sum/Difference Identities:
sin(α + β) = sinα · cosβ + cosα · sinβ
cos(α - β) = cosα · cosβ + sinα · sinβ
Use the Unit circle to evaluate: sin45 = cos45 = √2/2
Use the Double Angle Identities: sin2Ф = 2sinФ · cosФ
Use the Pythagorean Identity: cos²Ф + sin²Ф = 1
<u />
<u>Proof LHS → RHS</u>
LHS: 2sin(45 + 2A) · cos(45 - 2A)
Sum/Difference: 2 (sin45·cos2A + cos45·sin2A) (cos45·cos2A + sin45·sin2A)
Unit Circle: 2[(√2/2)cos2A + (√2/2)sin2A][(√2/2)cos2A +(√2/2)·sin2A)]
Expand: 2[(1/2)cos²2A + cos2A·sin2A + (1/2)sin²2A]
Distribute: cos²2A + 2cos2A·sin2A + sin²2A
Pythagorean Identity: 1 + 2cos2A·sin2A
Double Angle: 1 + sin4A
LHS = RHS: 1 + sin4A = 1 + sin4A
