Answer:

b = $22.62^{o}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is a right angled triangle, the appropriate trigonometric function can be applied to determine the value of b.

Thus, to determine the value of b;

Sin θ = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$

Sin b = $\frac{20}{52}$

= $\frac{20}{52}$

= 0.38462

⇒ b = $Sin^{-1}$ 0.38462

= 22.6202

b = $22.62^{o}$

The measure of angle E (= b) is $22.62^{o}$ .

Factor 125x^3-1000. Show your work.

Salsk061 [2.6K]

The left term is (5x)³.

The right term is 10³.

So, you can use the formula for the factorization of the difference of cubes.

... a³ - b³ = (a-b)(a² +ab +b²)

Here, you have a=5x, b=10, so the factorization is

... 125x³ -1000 = (5x-10)(25x² +50x +100)
