We are given two binomials: x+4 , x^2-9.
x+4 can't be factored. Therefore, it is a prime.
Let us work on x^2-9.
9 could be written as 3^2.
Therefore, x^2-9 = x^2 - 3^2.
Now, we can apply difference of the squares formula to factor it.
We know a^2 -b^2 = (a-b) (a+b).
Therefore, x^2 - 3^2 can be factored as (x-3) (x+3).
So, x^2-9 is not a prime binomial because it can be factored as (x-3) (x+3).
Using the law os cosines formula b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2*a*c*cos(B)
a = 17, b = 8, c = 16
8^2 = 17^2 + 16^2 - 2*17*16* cos(B)
64 = 289 + 256 - 544 * cos(B)
544*cos(B) = 289 + 256 - 64
544 * cos(B) = 481
cos (B) = 481/544
B = arccos(481/544)
B = 27.8 degrees
