The exact value of cos120 if the measure 120 degrees intersects the unit circle at point (-1/2,√3/2) is 0.5

<h3>Solving trigonometry identity</h3>

If an angle of measure 120 degrees intersects the unit circle at point (-1/2,√3/2), the measure of cos(120) can be expressed as;

Cos120 = cos(90 + 30)

Using the cosine rule of addition

cos(90 + 30) = cos90cos30 - sin90sin30

cos(90 + 30) = 0(√3/2) - 1(0.5)

cos(90 + 30) = 0 - 0.5

cos(90 + 30) = 0.5

Hence the exact value of cos120 if the measure 120 degrees intersects the unit circle at point (-1/2,√3/2) is 0.5

Answer:

RADIUS

==================================

PROBLEM

Mary’s bicycle wheel has a circumference of 226.08 cm². What is its radius?

SOLUTION

We can solve this problem using the circumference formula in which π stands for ( 3.14 ), C stands for circumference itself and r stands for radius.

\bold{Formula \: || \: C = 2πr}Formula∣∣C=2πr

\tt{226.08 = 2(3.14) r}226.08=2(3.14)r

'Now to find the radius,Substitute 226.08 for c which is circumference in the formula.

\begin{gathered} \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \tt{C = 2πr} \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \tt{226.08 = 2(3.14)\red{r}} \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \large \tt{ \frac{226.08}{6.28} = \cancel\frac{6.28 \red{r}}{6.28} } \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \boxed{\tt\green{C = 36}}\end{gathered}

C=2πr

226.08=2(3.14)r

6.28

226.08

=

6.28

6.28r

C=36

To check:

\begin{gathered} \small\begin{array}{|c|}\hline \bold{circumference }\\ \\ \tt{C = 2πr} \\ \tt{C = 2(3.14) (36\:cm) } \\ \tt{C = 2(113.04\:cm) } \\ \underline{\tt \green{C = 226.08\:cm }} \\ \hline \end{array} \end{gathered}

circumference

C=2πr

C=2(3.14)(36cm)

C=2(113.04cm)

C=226.08cm

FINAL ANSWER

If Mary's Bicycle has a circumference of 226.08 cm then the radius is 36.

\boxed{ \tt \red{r = 36}}

r=36
