Answer:

  • sinθ = 3/5
  • cosθ = 4/5

<h3>Given </h3>
  • Point (16, 12)

<h3>To find </h3>
  • Sine and cosine of the angle, using the given coordinates

<h3>Solution</h3>

Since both of the coordinates are positive, we have:

  • the angle θ is in the first quadrant, both sine and cosine have positive values;
  • the x-coordinate determines the value of adjacent leg;
  • the y-coordinate determines the value of opposite leg.

Find the hypotenuse of the right triangle using values of both legs:

  • h=\sqrt{ x^2+y^2}=\sqrt{16^2+12^2}= \sqrt{400} =20

Find sine:

  • <em>sine = opposite/hypotenuse</em>
  • sinθ = 12/20 = 3/5

Find cosine:

  • <em>cosine = adjacent/hypotenuse</em>
  • cosθ = 16/20 = 4/5

1.   y = -⅔x + 490    

2.   I would start with the y-intercept(490) on the graph. Then from that point, I would use rise/run to find the next point: I would go down two points (because the slope is negative), and run three points to the right.

3.   f(x) = -⅔ + 490. The graph represents the total profits of last month.

4.   View file below.

5.   The graphs of these functions are similar in the fact that they are parallel to each other, therefore having the same slope.Both lines are also negative. They are different in that they do not have the same y-intercept or x-intercept.
