How did politicians react to slavery?

1 answer:

6 0

They were in 2 different sides. The Abolitionists and the Pro-Slavery politicians. Some were heavily against slavery and started a movement to abolish it, some even tried freeing slaves. Pro-slavery politicians were in heavy support of it and did everything in their power to keep it alive in the South. It got to the point where all the Southern States threatened to secede from the United States in the late 1850s, and even caused Virginia to split into 2 states, Virginia and West Virginia.

Cos(sin15/17-(sin-5/13)

valina [46]

If sin
=5/13

then the ratio of opposite side/hypotenuse
=5/13
By Pythagorean Theorem
If opposite side =5units and
hypotenuse =13 units

(for any units)
then adjacent side=12 units
and
cos=adjacent side over
hypotenuse =12/13

However, we need to note that if the angle is in Quadrant II then the
adjacent side
will actually be a negative value
so
cos= 12/13 for an angle in Q1
or
cos= -12/13 for an angle in Q2
(angle can’t be in Q3 or Q4, since sin > 0)

1. Why did America shift from isolationism to expansionism in the latter half of the 19th century?

Olenka [21]

Mostly due to the ideas of Manifest Destiny. They started going westwards with the desire to span the United States from coast to coast, and then they started going worldwide. The idea behind it is that the United States were destined to help the world become free and democratic like they were so they started helping people worldwide in rebellions against colonialism or in similar affairs.
