Mathematics

Answer:

The Pythagorean identities are

sin^{2} x + cos^{2} x = 1\\1+ tan^{2} x = sec^{2} x\\1 + cot^{2} x = csc^{2} x\\where\\csc x = \frac{1}{sinx} \\cot x = \frac{cosx}{sinx} or \frac{1}{tanx} \\tan x = \frac{1}{cotx} or \frac{sinx}{cosx} \\sec x = \frac{1}{cotx}

No matter what the value of x (the angle degree amount) is, sin²x+cos²x is equal to 1

When given a side length of a right triangle you will be able to use one of these identities to find the angle amount

Answer:

A pythagorean identity means that for any angle \theta, sin^2\theta+cos^2\theta=1.

This also means 1+tan^2\theta=sec^2\theta \mbox{ and } 1+cot^2\theta=csc^2\theta. The symbol, theta (\theta) represents one of the acute angles in the right triangle. The hypotenuse (familiarly c in the regular pythagorean theorem) is 1. The triangle base is cos\theta, and the height (side perpendicular to the base, making a right angle) is sin\theta. The angle theta is opposite the sin\theta side.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pythagorean theorem applies to right triangles, which always have a 90 degree angle. Pythagorean identities are used to simplify trigonometric expressions/evaluate trig functions and to find the trig ratios in a right triangle.

Answer:

x=15

Step-by-step explanation:

<GCB=180-5x

<EBA=9x

<DAC=8x

The sum of the three exterior angles equals 360.

(180-5x)+9x+8x=360

180-5x+9x+8x=360

-5x+9x+8x=360-180

12x=180

x=15

qaws [65]
After striking a pair of arcs from each endpoint of a line segment, just join the intersection point of the 1st pair (above the segment) with the intersection point
of the 2nd pair (under the segment)
And this is how you construct the segment's perpendicular bisector

If W is the midpoint of line vx and wx= 7.8, find the length of line vx
Maru [420]
Well, to get this, you would have to multiply 7.8 by 2 or add 7.8 to 7.8, the reason you would have to do this is because the midpoint is 1/2 of the line. So 7.8+7.8=15.6.
15.6 (D) is your answer.
Hope this helped!
