Answer:
Imagine an easier version of this problem: You have a board 5 feet long that you must cut (divide, right?) into two equal parts. It is probably clear to you that you simply divide the length (5) by the number of parts you're dividing it into (2) to obtain the length of each piece (2.5 feet).
Use the same method for your problem 5 feet divided by 6 is 0.83 feet per piece.
We do not ordinarily divide feet into decimal portions, but instead into inches. Since an inch is 1/12 of a foot, you could simply say 5/6 = how many twelfths? or 5/6 = n/12 Solve this by inspection or by cross multiplying 5 times 12 equals n times 6. So n must equal 10, and your pieces of board are each 10 inches long.
Answer:
Transitive Property
Step-by-step explanation:
Since X is the midpoint, it bisects the points RS. If MX=XS, and RS is the same as XS, then they are the same. This also follows the Transitive propety (if a=b and b=c, then a=c)

Question:
If cos(θ) =-8/17 and sin(θ) is negative, then sin(θ) = ___ and tan(θ) =___.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
cos(θ) =-8/17
Required
sin(θ) = __
tan(θ) =__
The first step is to determine the length of the third side
Given that
Where Adj and Hyp represent Adjacent and Hypotenuse
By comparison
Using Pythagoras
By Substitution
Subtract 64 from both sides
Take square roots of both sides
The question says that sin(θ) is negative; This implies that θ is in the third quadrant and as such
From trigonometry
Also from trigonometry
