Answer:

a =b = \frac{5\sqrt{5} }{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

a^{2} +b^{2} = 5 ^{2}

a = b

2a^{2}   = 5 ^{2}

2a^{2}   = 25\\

a^{2}   = \frac{25}{5}

a = \frac{5}{\sqrt{5} }

must rationalize...

a =b = \frac{5\sqrt{5} }{5}

Which of the following is the solution set of x2 + 8x + 12 = 0?<br> (-2.-6<br> 2.6
algol [13]

To solve this polynomial equation, we first factor the left side.

To factor x² + 8x + 12 = 0, look for factors of 12 that add to 8.

These factors are 6 and 2 so we have (x + 6)(x + 2) = 0.

So either x + 6 = 0 or x + 2 = 0 and solving for

x in each equation, our answer is {-6, -2}.

Let f( x)= sin(x) Let g(x)=cos(x) a) Sketch the graph of f^2 b) Sketch the graph of g^2 c) Sketch the graph of f^2+g^2
ZanzabumX [31]
Given:
f(x) = sin(x)
g(x) = cos(x).

Note that because sin²x + cos²x = 1, the value for f²+g² should be equal to 1.
Create the table shown below.

       x           f²          g²        f² + g²
--------  ---------- -----------   ------------
-π                0             1               1
-0.8π  0.3455  0.6545              1
-0.6π  0.9045  0.0955              1
-0.4π  0.9045  0.0955              1
-0.2π  0.3455  0.6545              1
      0            0             1              1
 0.2π  0.3455  0.6545              1
 0.4π  0.9045  0.0955             1
 0.6π  0.9045  0.0955             1
0.8π   0.3455  0.6545             1
     π             0            1              1

A sketch is shown in the figure below.
