Answer:

The relation between the sides and angles of a right triangle is the basis for trigonometry.

Step-by-step explanation:

The side opposite the right angle is called the hypotenuse (side c in the figure). The sides adjacent to the right angle are called legs (sides a and b ).

Answer:

The legs

Step-by-step explanation:

In a right triangle, sides a and b are called "the legs." These are the sides that create the right angle. Side c is called the hypotenuse and it is the longest side of a right triangle. Side c is opposite of the right angle.

I hope this helps!

Nolan watched a beetle on the sidewalk. It crawled 7/12 of a yard, then rested for a bit, and then crawled 1/4 of a yard farther

D, because 1/4 is equivalent to 4/12 and 7/12+4/12=11/12 which is equivalent to 5/6

Let g be the function given by g(x)=limh→0sin(x h)−sinxh. What is the instantaneous rate of change of g with respect to x at x=π

lorasvet [3.4K]

The instantaneous rate of change of g with respect to x at x = π/3 is 1/2.

<h3>How to determine the instantaneous rate of change of a given function</h3>

The instantaneous rate of change at a given value of $x$ can be found by concept of derivative, which is described below:

$g(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}$

Where $h$ is the difference rate.

In this question we must find an expression for the instantaneous rate of change of $g$ if $f(x) = \sin x$ and evaluate the resulting expression for $x = \frac{\pi}{3}$ . Then, we have the following procedure below:
