Answer:

9 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose AB is the ladder. AC is the height of the window above the ground and BC is the distance of the foot of ladder from the wall.

The triangle ABC is right angled at C.

∴ AB² = AC² + BC²

=> 15² = 12² + x²

=> 225 - 144= x²

=> 81 = x²

=> 9 = x

  • Hence, distance of the foot of the ladder from the wall is 9 m.

1-sin^2x/sinx-cscx <br><br>How do I solve this problem? I keep getting the wrong answer.
Annette [7]

Answer:

-sinx

Step-by-step explanation:

a trig identity that is crucial to solving this problem is: sin^2 + cos^2 = 1

with knowing that, you can manipulate that and turn it into 1 - sin^2x = cos^x

so 1-sin^2x/sinx - cscx becomes cos^2x/sinx - cscx

it is also important to know that cscx is the same thing as 1/sinx

knowing this information, cscx can be replaced with 1/sinx

(cos^2x)/(sinx - 1/sinx)

now sinx and 1/sinx do not have the same denominator, so we need to multiply top and bottom of sinx by sinx; it becomes....

cos^2x

---------------------

(sin^2x - 1)/sinx

notice how in the denominator it has sin^2x-1 which is equal to -cos^2x

so now it becomes:

cos^2x

--------------

-cos^2x/sinx

because we have a fraction over a fraction, we need to flip it

cos^2x          sinx

---------- * ----------------

1                  -  cos^2x

because the cos^2x can cancel out, it becomes 1

now the answer is -sinx
