Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Please write points using parentheses: (4, 5) and (-4, 8}.

(4, 5) is in the 1st quadrant and (-4, 8} is in the 2nd. Reversing the order of these two points yields (-4, 8) and (4, 5). From this we can see that while moving from (-4, 8) to (4, 5) involves following a line with negative slope (because the y-coordinate decreases from 8 to 5 as the x-coordinate increases from -4 to +4). This sloping line is the hypotenuse of a right triangle. Draw a vertical line segment through (-4, 8) and a horizontal line segment through (4, 5). This hypotenuse, the vertical line segment and the horizontal line segment are the boundaries of the desired right triangle.

What are the ratios of sine, cosine, and tangent for angle Y? sin(Y) = StartFraction X Z Over X Y EndFraction; cos(Y) = StartFra

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

$\sin Y= \frac{XZ}{XY}$

$\cos Y= \frac{YZ}{XY}$

$\tan Y= \frac{XZ}{YZ}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for triangle

Required

Find $\sin, \cos$ and $\tan$ of angle Y

For angle Y:

$Opposite = XZ$

$Adjacent = YZ$

$Hypotenuse = XY$

The $\sin$ of an angle is calculated as:

$\sin\theta = \frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}$

So:

$\sin Y= \frac{XZ}{XY}$

The $\cos$ of an angle is calculated as:

$\cos\theta = \frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse}$

So:

$\cos Y= \frac{YZ}{XY}$

The $\tan$ of an angle is calculated as:

$\tan\theta = \frac{Opposite}{Adjacent}$

So:

$\tan Y= \frac{XZ}{YZ}$

Ron charges $10 to park a car in his parking lot. He pays $50 per day to rent the lot. If 40 cars park in his lot during the day

jolli1 [7]

From the cars parked in the lot he will earn (40)($10)=$400, but he will need to pay $50 for the rent. Thus his total $ earned will be $400-$50=$350.
