If sin θ = 2 over 7 and tan θ > 0, what is the value of cos θ?

Sin θ = 2 / 7
tan θ > 0
cos θ = ?

sin θ = opposite / hypotenuse
tan θ = opposite / adjacent
cos θ = adjacent / hypotenuse

short leg = opposite = 2
hypotenuse = 7
long leg = adjacent = ?

adjacent = √(7² - 2²)
adjacent = √(49 - 4)
adjacent = √45
adjacent = √9 * 5
adjacent = 3 √5

cos θ = adjacent / hypotenuse
cos θ = 3√5 / 7

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Area: (3+√7) x (1+2√7) = 17+7√7 = 35.52

Perimeter: 2(3+√7) + 2(1+2√7) = 8+6√7 = 23.87

Simon set up his tent in his backyard last night. His tent is 6 feet tall. To secure it to the ground, he attached a rope from t

makvit [3.9K]

Length of Simon's tent = 6 feet

Distance from the bottom of the tent to the tent's base = 8 feet

Let the length of rope be R.

The tent and the rope forms a right angle triangle where the rope is the hypotenuse.

We know that :

$\color{hotpink} \tt{hypotenuse}^{2} \color{plum}= {base}^{2} + {height}^{2}$

Which means :

$= \tt {R}^{2} = {6}^{2} + {8}^{2}$

$=\tt {R}^{2} = 36 + 64$

$= \tt {R}^{2} = 100$

$=\tt R = \sqrt{100}$

$\hookrightarrow\color{plum}\tt \bold{R = 10 \: feet}$

Thus, the hypotenuse of this triangle = 10 feet

▪︎Therefore, <u>the length of the rope = 10 feet</u>

Solve for x<br>-6/5x-4=-46

Katarina [22]

Answer:

x = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

-6/5x-4=-46

Add 4 to each side

-6/5x-4+4=-46+4

-6/5x=-42

Multiply each side by -5/6 to isolate x

-5/6 * -6/5x=-42 * -5/6

x = 35
