The value of angle a will be 33°.

It should be noted that when we've parallel lines, then the angles will be equal. In this case, the value of angle a will be equal to that of angle b and this will be:

5x + 8 = 8x - 7.

Collect like terms .

8x - 5x = 8 + 7

3x = 15

Divide both side by 3

3x/3 = 15/3

x = 5

Therefore, the value of angle a will be:

= 5x + 8

= 5(5) + 8

= 25° + 8°

= 33°

The measure of angle a is 33°.

HELPPPP!!!<br> Select the correct answer.<br> Which function is an even function?
jonny [76]

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

p(x)=sin(x) is an odd function since sin(-x)=-sin(x).

q(x)=cos(x) is an even function since cos(-x)=cos(x).

r(x)=tan(x) is an odd function since tan(-x)=-tan(x).

s(x)=csc(x) is an odd function since csc(-x)=-csc(x).

So the only contender seems to be C.

Let's check.  To check we have to plug in (-x) in place of (x) and see if we get the same function back since we are looking for an even function.

f(x)=\cos(\frac{5\pi}{4}x)

Replace (x) with (-x):

f(-x)=\cos(\frac{5\pi}{4}(-x)

f(-x)=\cos(\frac{-5\pi}{4}x)

f(x)=\cos(\frac{5\pi}{4}x) since cosine is even; that is cos(-u)=cos(u) where u in this case is \frac{5\pi}{4}x.

So f is even.
