The value of the radical expression -8 + √20 when expanded and solved is -3.6, based on the given parameters

<h3>What are equivalent expressions?</h3>

Equivalent expressions are different expressions that have equal values when evaluated and compared

<h3>How to approximate the radical expression?</h3>

The expression is given as:

-8 + √20

The above expression is a radical expression

So, we start by doing the following

Express 20 as 5 * 4

-8 + √20 = -8 + √(5 * 4)

Split the radical expression √(5 * 4)

-8 + √20 = -8 + √5 * √4

Evaluate the square root of 4 i.e. √4 = 2

-8 + √20 = -8 + √5 * 2

This gives

-8 + √20 = -8 + 2√5

Evaluate the square root of 5

-8 + √20 = -8 + 2 * 2.2

Evaluate the product of 2 and 2.2

-8 + √20 = -8 + 4.4

Evaluate the difference

-8 + √20 = -3.6

Based on the given parameters, the value of the radical expression -8 + √20 when expanded and solved is -3.6

So, the complete equation is:

-8 + √20 = -3.6

galben [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

Thanks, so cube root of 512 is 8 and reciprocal of 0.4 is 2.5 then:

8 : 2.5 / divide both by 2.5 to get:

3.2 : 1 that's my answer right?

Please help with any of this Im stuck and having trouble with pre calc is it basic triogmetric identities using quotient and rec
german

How I was taught all of these problems is in terms of r, x, and y. Where sin = y/r, cos = x/r, tan = y/x, csc = r/y, sec = r/x, cot = x/y. That is how I will designate all of the specific pieces in each problem.

#3

Let's start with sin here. \frac{2\sqrt{5}}{5} = \frac{2}{\sqrt{5}} Therefore, because sin is y/r, r = \sqrt{5} and y = +2. Moving over to cot, which is x/y, x = -1, and y = 2. We know y has to be positive because it is positive in our given value of sin. Now, to find cos, we have to do x/r.

cos = \frac{-1}{\sqrt{5}} = \frac{-\sqrt{5}}{5}

#4

Let's start with secant here. Secant is r/x, where r (the length value/hypotenuse) cannot be negative. So, r = 9 and x = -7. Moving over to tan, x must still equal -7, and y = 4\sqrt{2}. Now, to find csc, we have to do r/y.

csc = \frac{9}{4\sqrt{2}} = \frac{9\sqrt{2}}{8}

The pythagorean identities are

sin^2 + cos^2 = 1,

1 + cot^2 = csc^2,

tan^2 + 1 = sec^2.

#5

Let's take a look at the information given here. We know that cos = -3/4, and sin (the y value), must be greater than 0. To find sin, we can use the first pythagorean identity.

sin^2 + (-3/4)^2 = 1

sin^2 + 9/16 = 1

sin^2 = 7/16

sin = \sqrt{7/16} = \frac{\sqrt{7}}{4}

Now to find tan using a pythagorean identity, we'll first need to find sec. sec is the inverse/reciprocal of cos, so therefore sec = -4/3. Now, we can use the third trigonometric identity to find tan, just as we did for sin. And, since we know that our y value is positive, and our x value is negative, tan will be negative.

tan^2 + 1 = (-4/3)^2

tan^2 + 1 = 16/9

tan^2 = 7/9

tan = -\sqrt{7/9} = \frac{-\sqrt{7}}{3}

#6

Let's take a look at the information given here. If we know that csc is negative, then our y value must also be negative (r will never be negative). So, if cot must be positive, then our x value must also be negative (a negative divided by a negative makes a positive). Let's use the second pythagorean identity to solve for cot.

1 + cot^2 = (\frac{-\sqrt{6}}{2})^{2}

1 + cot^2 = 6/4

cot^2 = 2/4

cot = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}

tan = \sqrt{2}

Next, we can use the third trigonometric identity to solve for sec. Remember that we can get tan from cot, and cos from sec. And, from what we determined in the beginning, sec/cos will be negative.

(\frac{2}{\sqrt{2}})^2 + 1 = sec^2

4/2 + 1 = sec^2

2 + 1 = sec^2

sec^2 = 3

sec = -\sqrt{3}

cos = \frac{-\sqrt{3}}{3}

Hope this helps!! :)
