Answer:

give brainliest please I need it to level up

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one of the numbers be x,

Then the two numbers are x and x +1

And,

x+x+1 = 53

2x = 53 - 1 (Transposing 1 from LHS to RHS)

2x = 52

x = 52/2

x = 26

x + 1 = 27

So, The two numbers are 26 and 27.

Which sum or difference identity would you use to verify that cos (180° - q) = -cos q?

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : $\cos (180^{\circ}-q)=-\cos q$

We have to write which identity we will use to prove the given statement.

Consider $\cos (180^{\circ}-q)=-\cos q$

Take left hand side of given expression $\cos (180^{\circ}-q)$

We know

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

Comparing , we get, a= 180° and b = q

Substitute , we get,

$\cos (180^{\circ}-q)=\cos 180^{\circ} \cos (q)+\sin q \sin 180^{\circ}$

Also, we know $\sin 180^{\circ}=0$ and $\cos 180^{\circ}=-1$

Substitute, we get,

$\cos (180^{\circ}-q)=-1\cdot \cos (q)+\sin q \cdot 0$

Simplify , we get,

$\cos (180^{\circ}-q)=-\cos (q)$

Hence, use difference identity to prove the given result.
