I got

-  \frac{6 3}{65}

What we know

cos a=-3/5.

sin b=12/13

Angle A interval are between 180 and 270 or third quadrant

Angle B quadrant is between 90 and 180 or second quadrant.

What we need to find

Cos(b)

Cos(a)

What we are going to apply

Sum and Difference Formulas

Basics Sine and Cosines Identies.

1. Let write out the cos(a-b) formula.

\cos(a - b)  =  \cos(a)  \cos(b)  +  \sin(a)  \sin(b)

2. Use the interval it gave us.

According to the given, Angle B must between in second quadrant.

Since sin is opposite/hypotenuse and we are given a sin b=12/13. We. are going to set up an equation using the pythagorean theorem.

.

{12}^{2}  +  {y}^{2}  =  {13}^{2}

144 +  {y}^{2}  = 169

25 =  {y}^{2}

y = 5

so our adjacent side is 5.

Cosine is adjacent/hypotenuse so our cos b=5/13.

Using the interval it gave us, Angle a must be in the third quadrant. Since cos is adjacent/hypotenuse and we are given cos a=-3/5. We are going to set up an equation using pythagorean theorem,

.

( - 3) {}^{2}  +  {x}^{2}  =  {5}^{2}

9 +  {x}^{2}  = 25

{x}^{2}  = 16

x = 4

so our opposite side is 4. sin =Opposite/Hypotenuse so our sin a =4/5.Sin is negative in the third quadrant so

sin a =-4/5.

Now use cosine difference formula

-  \frac{3}{5}  \times  \frac{5}{13}  +   - \frac {4}{5}  \times  \frac{12}{13}

- \frac{15}{65} + (  - \frac{48}{65}  )

-  \frac{63}{65}

Hope this helps

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

The two statements that are true are statement 1 and statement 4:

- The sum of pi and 0 is irrational.

- The product of \frac{9}{5} and \sqrt{19 } is irrational.

Pi is an irrational number, and the square root of 19 is irrational. That's because these numbers can't be put into a simplified fraction to encompass all the digits it contains.
