Answer:

2s or 3s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function that models the height of the object as;

h(t) = - 16t^2 + 80t + 96

The ball reaches the ground when h = 0

Substitute

0 = - 16t^2 + 80t + 96

Divide through by -16

0 = t²-5t-6

t²-5t-6 = 0

t²-2t-3t+6 = 0

t(t-2)-3(t-2) = 0

(tt-2)(t-3) = 0

t - 2 = 0 and t-3 = 0

t = 2 and 3s

Hence it will take the ball 2s or 3s to reach the ground

Answer:

See Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problem A)

We have:

\displaystyle \csc^2\theta \tan^2\theta -1=\tan^2\theta

When in doubt, convert all reciprocal trig functions and tangent into terms of sine and cosine.

So, let cscθ = 1/sinθ and tanθ = sinθ/cosθ. Hence:

\displaystyle \left(\frac{1}{\sin^2\theta}\right)\left(\frac{\sin^2\theta}{\cos^2\theta}\right)-1=\tan^2\theta

Cancel:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{\cos^2\theta}-1=\tan^2\theta

Let 1/cosθ = secθ:

\sec^2\theta -1=\tan^2\theta

From the Pythagorean Identity, we know that tan²θ + 1 = sec²θ. Hence, sec²θ - 1 = tan²θ:

\tan^2\theta =\tan^2\theta

Problem B)

We have:

\sin^3x=\sin x-\sin x \cos^2 x

Factor out a sine:

\sin x(\sin^2 x)=\sin x-\sin x\cos^2 x

From the Pythagorean Identity, sin²θ + cos²θ = 1. Hence, sin²θ = 1 - cos²θ:

\sin x(1-\cos^2 x)=\sin x-\sin x\cos^2x

Distribute:

\sin x- \sin x \cos^2 x=\sin x-\sin x\cos^2 x

Problem C)

We have:

\displaystyle \frac{\cos 2x+1}{\sin 2x}=\cot x

Recall that cos2θ = cos²θ - sin²θ and that sin2θ = 2sinθcosθ. Hence:

\displaystyle \frac{\cos^2 x-\sin^2 x+1}{2\sin x\cos x}=\cot x

From the Pythagorean Identity, sin²θ + cos²θ = 1 so cos²θ = 1 - sin²θ:

\displaystyle \frac{2\cos^2 x}{2\sin x\cos x}=\cot x

Cancel:

\displaystyle \frac{\cos x}{\sin x}=\cot x

By definition:

\cot x = \cot x

PLEASE HELP VERY URGENT
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

A. square root of a^2 + b^2 for both answers

Step-by-step explanation:

The first problem, we are given

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

What we do is solve for c.

sqrt(a^2 + b^2) = c

c = sqrt(a^2 + b^2)

For problem 2,

WE can apply the Pythagorean theorem because we have a right triangle.

The equations is

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 like the first problem

Solving gets us

sqrt(a^2 + b^2) = c

c = sqrt(a^2 + b^2)
