    i)cosA=(b^2+c^2-a^2)/2bc cosA=(49+64-169)/(112) cosA=-1/2 Quadrant 1/ A=60 degrees Since cos is negative in Q II and III, Quadrant 2, A=120 degrees Quadrant 3, A=240 degrees (disregard due to angle orientation) Therefore A=120 degrees ii) A=(1/2)(56)sin120=28 x (rt3/2)=...

    Parabola..

    (x-h)^2=+-4a(y-k) [General form] Where V(h,k) S(h, k+-a) is still 2u material though. But yeah i agree about it should be considered as a "special case".

    3.Our base case is which is just which is true. ok so suppose that it is true for n=a-1. Now we want to prove that the statement is true for n=a. So we have our a numbers and it is true that by our induction hypothesis. We want to prove that Notice that both sides (especially...
