Hey guys please help? Trigonometry

Step-by-step explanation:

a ∈ (0; π/2) here means that our angle, a must lie between 0 and pi/2, exclusive.

So this mean our angle must be in between 0 and pi/2, but can not be neither 0 and pi/2.

Here we have

\sin( \alpha )  =  \frac{3 \sqrt{11} }{10}

We must find cos.

Using the Pythagorean theorem

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

It is mostly notated as this,

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

But they mean the same thing, we know

\sin( \alpha )  =  \frac{3 \sqrt{11} }{10}

So we plug that in for sin a.

( \frac{3 \sqrt{11} }{10} ) {}^{2}  +  \cos {}^{2} ( \alpha )  = 1

\frac{99}{100}  +  \cos {}^{2} ( \alpha )  = 1

\cos {}^{2} ( \alpha )  =  \frac{100}{100}  -  \frac{99}{100}

\cos {}^{2} ( \alpha )  =  \frac{1}{100}

Since cos is Positve over the interval (0; π/2), we take the positive or principal square root.

\cos( \alpha )  =  \frac{1}{10}

2. We would get the same work for the second part, the only difference is that cosine is negative over the interval

(π/2, π)

So the answer for 2 is

\cos( \alpha )  =  -  \frac{1}{10}

Disclaimer: Your work you did was correct, just remember for fractions like

1 -  \frac{99}{100}

Convert 1 into a fraction that has a denominator of 100.

\frac{100}{100}  -  \frac{99}{100}  =  \frac{1}{100}

What are the zeros of the function f(x) =(x^2 - 3x - 10)(x + 4)<br> !!Please help!!!
murzikaleks [220]
F(x) = (x² - 3x - 10)(x + 4) becomes (x - 5)(x + 2)(x + 4) when completely factored. Now set each binomial equal to zero. 

x - 5 = 0
x = 5

x + 2 = 0
x = - 2

x + 4 = 0
x = - 4

Your zeros are at x = - 4, - 2, and 5. Or at (- 4, 0), (- 2, 0), and (5, 0).

Please Answer This Ixl Asap!!!
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

EH = 120 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

angles in a circle add up to 360 degrees

arc EF + arc FG + arc GH + arch EH = 360

95 + 90 + 55 + EH = 360

240 + EH = 360

subtract 240 from both sides to isolate EH

EH = 120 degrees

Calculate the surface area of a solid box in the shape of a cube with side length 6cm.
eduard

Answer:

216 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A cube has 6 congruent, square faces.

Each face has side length of 6 cm.

The total surface area is the sum of the surface areas of the 6 faces, but since all faces are congruent, the total surface area is

SA = 6s^2

where s = side length

SA = 6 * (6 cm)^2

SA = 6 * 36 cm^2

SA = 216 cm^2
