According to trigonometry,sine function is an odd function having periods of 2pi.

And it is a wavy function.

sine function is defined as the ratio between the side in front of the given angle and the hypotenuse

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

In trigonometry it expresses the ratio of the opposite side / the hypotenuse of the angle you are given.

For example if you want the sin of 38 degrees, you would put sin(38) =

and the answer would come out as 0.616 roughly. That would mean that if one of the acute angles in a right triangle was 38 degrees and the oppose side length was divided by the hypotenuse, the ratio would be 0.616 approximately.

No matter how big the triangle was to start with, as long as there was a right angle in it and one of the other angles was 38 degrees, then the ratio would be 0.616 between the opposite side and the hypotenuse.

In the diagram below the ratio of BC / AC is the Sin(A). If it is 38 degrees then Sin(A) = BC / AC = 0.616 not matter how big the triangle is.

Ariel swims 2 1/6 miles in every 1/3 hour. Enter the number of miles Ariel swims in 1 minute.
weqwewe [10]

In order to find the distance covered in 1 minute, we need to divide distance covered 2 1/6 miles by 20 minutes.We are given : Ariel swims 2 1/6 miles in every 1/3 hour.

Let us convert 1/3 hour into minutes.

There are 60 minutes in an hour.

Therefore, 1/3 hours = 60 × 1/3 = 20 minutes.

So, we could say, "Ariel swims 2 1/6 miles in every 20 minutes".


2 1/6÷ 20 = 13/6 ÷ 20.

Let us convert division sign into multiplication and flip 20 to 1/20.

We get

<h3>13/6 × 1/20 = 13/120 miles in 1 minute.</h3><h3>In decimal 0.11 mile in 1 minute.</h3>

A piece of wood is divided into two pieces in the ratio of 2:5. One piece is 10 cm long so how long is the other piece?
klio [65]

Answer:

The length of the pother piece of the wood is 25 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of a piece of wood is x such that the ratio of two pieces is 2:5. Two pieces are 2x and 5 x

Length of the first piece is 10 cm. It means, 2x = 10 i.e. x = 5

We have considered that the length of other piece is 5x. It means 5×5 = 25 cm.

Hence, the length of the pother piece of the wood is 25 cm

Need help ASAP Question 1 of 10
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

4(x - 9)^2 - 17

Step-by-step explanation:

A horizontal shift to the right by 9 changes x^2 to (x - 9)^2.

A vertical shift down by 1 changes - 16 to -17.

Therefore, the new equation is:

4(x - 9)^2 - 17
