The identity in question is

cos(a - b) = cos(a) cos(b) + sin(a) sin(b)

so that

cos(a - b) = 12/37 cos(a) + 3/5 sin(b)

Since both a and b lie in the first quadrant, both cos(a) and sin(b) will be positive. Then it follows from the Pythagorean identity,

cos²(x) + sin²(x) = 1,

that

cos(a) = √(1 - sin²(a)) = 4/5

and

sin(b) = √(1 - cos²(b)) = 35/37

So,

cos(a - b) = 12/37 • 4/5 + 3/5 • 35/37 = 153/185

I need help with the photo below.

Here, 30/360 * 2πr = 10
1/12 * 2 * 3.14 * r = 10
r = 10*12 / 6.28
r = 19.11

Now, Area = 1/12 * 3.14 * (19.11)²
= 3.14/12 * 365.16
= 95.5 Ft²

In short, Your Answer would be Option C

Hope this helps!

The sum of three times a number and seven is greater than twice the number minus four

I'm guessing you want this written as an equation, so here it is.
3n+7>2(n-4)
These can be really tricky at times, so I suggest looking for "clues" in the wording, such as add, subtract, and other things. Also look for what numbers are "paired" together, like in parentheses. Hope that this helps!

Matti built a greenhouse in his backyard as shown below
Vanyuwa [196]

well, Matti's house is a triangular prism, and to get the volume of it, we simply get the area of the triangle upfront and multiply by its length of 15.

\bf \stackrel{\stackrel{\textit{area of }}{\textit{triangular front}}}{\cfrac{1}{2}(7)(7)}\times \stackrel{\textit{length}}{15}\implies \cfrac{49}{2}\cdot 15\implies 367.5~ft^3
