You can divide the whole expression by -3:

Recalling that

Let's compare the middle term:

So, we want to complete

Which differs from
by 16. So, if we add 16 to both sides, we have

Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
5^2-3^2=?
25-9=16
sqrt 16 = 4
6×4=24
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
our basic Pythagorean identity is cos²(x) + sin²(x) = 1
we can derive the 2 other using the listed above.
1. (cos²(x) + sin²(x))/cos²(x) = 1/cos²(x)
1 + tan²(x) = sec²(x)
2.(cos²(x) + sin²(x))/sin²(x) = 1/sin²(x)
cot²(x) + 1 = csc²(x)
A. sin^2 theta -1= cos^2 theta
this is false
cos²(x) + sin²(x) = 1
isolating cos²(x)
cos²(x) = 1-sin²(x), not equal to sin²(x)-1
B. Sec^2 theta-tan^2 theta= -1
1 + tan²(x) = sec²(x)
sec²(x)-tan(x) = 1, not -1
false
C. -cos^2 theta-1= sin^2
cos²(x) + sin²(x) = 1
sin²(x) = 1-cos²(x), our 1 is positive not negative, so false
D. Cot^2 theta - csc^2 theta=-1
cot²(x) + 1 = csc²(x)
isolating 1
1 = csc²(x) - cot²(x)
multiplying both sides by -1
-1 = cot²(x) - csc²(x)
TRUE
Answer:
x = 62
Step-by-step explanation:
x and 118 form a linear pair (added up, they both equal 180 degrees)
So, 180-118 = 62 which is the measurement of x
