The answer is 13 cm

a = height , b= base ,c = hypotenuse

a^2 + b ^2 = c ^2 ( theorem of Pythagoras)
(12cm)^2+ (5cm)^2 = hypotenuse
144cm^2 + 25 cm ^3 = hypotenuse
169cm^2 = hypotenuse
Square toot of 169cm ^2 = hypotenuse
Answer : 13 cm = hypotenuse

Find exact values for sin θ, cos θ and tan θ if csc θ = 3/2 and cos θ < 0.

kumpel [21]

Answer:

Part 1) $sin(\theta)=\frac{2}{3}$

Par 2) $cos(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}$

Part 3) $tan(\theta)=-\frac{2\sqrt{5}}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the $sin(\theta)$

we have

$csc(\theta)=\frac{3}{2}$

Remember that

$csc(\theta)=\frac{1}{sin(\theta)}$

therefore

$sin(\theta)=\frac{2}{3}$

step 2

Find the $cos(\theta)$

we know that

$sin^{2}(\theta) +cos^{2}(\theta)=1$

we have

$sin(\theta)=\frac{2}{3}$

substitute

$(\frac{2}{3})^{2} +cos^{2}(\theta)=1$

$\frac{4}{9} +cos^{2}(\theta)=1$

$cos^{2}(\theta)=1-\frac{4}{9}$

$cos^{2}(\theta)=\frac{5}{9}$

square root both sides

$cos(\theta)=\pm\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}$

we have that

$cos(\theta) < 0$ ---> given problem

$cos(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}$

step 3

Find the $tan(\theta)$

we know that

$tan(\theta)=\frac{sin(\theta)}{cos(\theta)}$

we have

$sin(\theta)=\frac{2}{3}$

$cos(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}$

substitute

$tan(\theta)=\frac{2}{3}:-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}=-\frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}$

Simplify

$tan(\theta)=-\frac{2\sqrt{5}}{5}$

Question 5 (1 point)

sdas [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal distribution has a unique characteristic of having equal mean and median values. If mean was higher than median, then the distribution would be positively skewed. Mean lower than median would appear in distributions negatively skewed. Each data set has a median value.

the length of a side of a square is 10x+4 units. If the perimeter is 96 units. What is the area of the square?

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

576 Units

Step-by-step explanation:

The way your teacher wants you to do it:

1. We know that multiplying a length by four gives us the perimeter of a square.

1a. Thus, we multiply the given length by four. 4(10x+4)=40x+16

1b. We know the perimeter is 96. So: 40x+16=96

2. Solving for x, we get x=2

3. Plugging our solved x into the given length (10x+4), we see that the length of a side of the square is 10*2+4=24.

4. We know that the area of a square can be found by squaring the side of a square.

4a. 24*24=576.

5. The area is 576 units.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Easier Solution:

1. We know that the perimeter is length*4.

2. We set L to length.

2a. 4L=96

2b. L=24

3. We know that the length square is area.

4. 24*24=576.

Explain to a new student how a reflection across the y-axis changes the coordinates of the original point.

RSB [31]

If you were to have (3,2) and find the reflection of the y axis, it would turn y into a negative, making it (3,-2).
