Answer:

n = the first

n + 1 = the 2nd

n + 2 = the 3rd

n(n + 2) - (n + 1) = 10(n + 2) + 1

n2 + 2n - n - 1 = 10n + 20 + 1

n2 - 9n - 22 = 0

(n - 11)(n + 2) = 0

If two factors = 0, at least one must = 0.

n - 11 = 0

n = 11

11,12,13

n + 2 = 0

n = -2

-2,-1,0

Answer:

50° is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Right Triangles

The right triangles are identified because they have an internal angle of 90°. The basic trigonometric ratios can be used to find angles and side lengths as needed.

We have a right triangle with the following characteristics:

The hypotenuse is 13 units long

The indicated angle is opposite to the leg of 10 units long.

When we know the length of the opposite side, we use the sine ratio. Let's call θ to the required angle:

$\displaystyle \sin\theta=\frac{\text{opposite side}}{\text{hypotenuse}}$
