Answer:

let one even number be N

and another even number be N(N+2)

N(N+2)=360

n^2+2n-360=0

n^2+20n-18n-360=0

value of N= -20 ,18

but -20 not accepted

smaller number 18

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this answer you would need to use the formula x(x+2) = 360 where x is an even number.  This is the formula because any number plus 2 equals the next consecutive, even whole number.   If we look at the factors of 360 we see the factors-

360: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 24, 30, 36, 40, 45, 60, 72, 90, 120, 180, and 360.

If we look through all of the factors 18 and 20 are the only ones with a 2 number difference.

Next, if we plug 18 into the equation:

x(x+2) =360

18(18+2) = 360

324+36 = 360

360 = 360

Since the equation works, x = 18.

In this problem, you must use SohCahToa which basically means:

Sin - opposite over hypotenuse

Cosine - adjacent over hypotenuse

Tangent - Opposite over hypotenuse


So in this picture we have 4 -which is on the opposite side of x - and a 5 -which is the hypotenuse of the triangle. This means we must use sin.

Using a calculator you put in:

sin^{-1} (\frac{4}{5} )

Your answer is 53.13 degrees

If the 1st and 10th terms of geometric sequence are 4 and 100, find the nth term of the sequence
Masja [62]

a = 4 first term, r = ?, T10 = 100.

Tn = ar^n - 1 formula for g.p

T10 = 4r^ 10 - 1

100 = 4r^9

Divide both side by 4

100/4 = 4/4r^9

25 = r^9 take the 9th root of both side

9√25 = 9√r^9

r = 9√25

To find the nth term

Since Tn = ar^n - 1
