Answer:

We have to first see that the given lengths makes a triangle or not by using a+b > c in which a,b and c are

length of sides of a triangle lets check out

16 + 21 = 37 > 28

21 + 28 = 49 > 16

16+ 28 = 44 > 21

As because the statement fits correct in the lengths given so its a triangle

So we can say that the triangle is scalene by means of measurements

but cant be a right angle as by taking the pythagorean triplet

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

lets see if a=16, b = 21 and c = 28

So a^2 + b^2

= 256 + 441

= 697

but c^2

= 28^2 = 784

As 441 =/= 784

So The triangle lengths cant be a right angled triangle

So 1/2 of possibility is the traingle acute and 1/2 of the possibilty that the triangle is obtuse

Now you can find the correct triangle on the basis of acute or obtuse angle by drawing with given length of sides of triangle

Hope it helps

I need the whole solution

ddd [48]

Confused what the question is. Are you looking for the product or the zeroes?

If you are looking for the product, then:

Use foil to get: sec²(1) - sec²(-csc²) -1(1) -1(-csc²)

= sec² + sec²csc² - 1 + csc²

= sec²csc² + sec² + csc² - 1

= sec²csc² + 1 - 1 (NOTE: sec² + csc² = 1 is an identity)

= sec²csc²

Answer: sec²csc²

***************************************************

If you are looking for the zeroes, then:

Using the zero product property, set each factor equal to zero and solve.

First factor:

sec²Θ - 1 = 0

sec²Θ = 1

secΘ = 1, -1

remember that secΘ is $\frac{1}{cos}$

$\frac{1}{cos}$ = 1 $\frac{1}{cos}$ = -1

cross multiply to get:

cosΘ = 1 cosΘ = -1

use the unit circle (or a calculator) to find that Θ = 0 and π

Second factor:

1 - csc²Θ = 0

1 = csc²Θ

1, -1 = cscΘ

remember that cscΘ is $\frac{1}{sin}$

$\frac{1}{sin}$ = 1 $\frac{1}{sin}$ = -1

cross multiply to get:

sinΘ = 1 sinΘ = -1

use the unit circle (or a calculator) to find that Θ = $\frac{\pi}{2}$ and $\frac{3\pi}{2}$

Answer: 0, π, $\frac{\pi}{2}$ , $\frac{3\pi}{2}$

Solve for −4.2y+2.1>−2.52

Alchen [17]

Answer:

y < 1.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Subtract 2.1 from both sides

-4.2y + 2.1 - 2.1 > -2.52 - 2.1

-4.2y > -4.62

Step 2: Divide both sides by -4.2

-4.2y / -4.2 > -4.62 / -4.2

Since you divided by a negative, that flips the sign.

y < 1.1

Answer: y < 1.1
