The weight of substance remaining after 13 years is 2.25 g.

Given:

Present weight of substance = 12 g

After 8 years weight remains = 6 gm

Now, weight loss in 8 year will be,

12-6=6 gm

So, weight loss in 1 year will be,

\dfrac{6}{8} =\dfrac{3}{4}

Total weight loss in 13 year will be,

\dfrac{3}{4}\times13=9.75

The weight of substance remaining after 13 years will be,

12- 9.75 = 2.25 \;\rm g

Therefore, the weight of substance remaining after 13 years is 2.25 g.

Answer:

tan(C) = √3/√2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, using Pythagorean Theorem, find AC.

=> AC = √(3√5)² - (3√3)²

=> AC = √45 - 27

=> AC = √18

=> AC = 3√2

tan C = 3√3/3√2

= √3/√2
