Charlene puts together two isosceles triangles so that they share a base, creating a kite. The legs of the triangles are 10 inch

es and 17 inches, respectively. If the length of the base for both triangles is 16 inches long, what is the length of the kite’s other diagonal?

This is the concept of trigonometry and its identities;
We are required to calculate the length of the kite's diagonals;
Here we use the trigonometric identities;
let theta=x
tan x=opposite/adjacent
opposite=17
adjacent=10
thus
tan x=17/10
x=tan^-1 17/10
x=59.54
Therefore half the length of the diagonal will be given by:
sin x=h/10
h=10 sin x
h=10 sin 59.54
h=8.62
thus the length of the diagonal will be:
2*8.62
=17.24 in

Which of the following is not equal to sin⁡(-230°)?
xenn [34]

From trigonometry we know that:

if sin(\theta)=sin(\alpha)

then, \theta=n\pi+(-1)^n\alpha (where n is an integer)

This can be rewritten in degrees as:

\theta=n(180^{\circ})+(-1)^n\alpha.............(Equation 1)

Now, in our case, \alpha=-230^{\circ}

Therefore, (Equation 1) can be written as:

\theta=n(180^{\circ})+(-1)^n(-230^{\circ})..........(Equation 2)

Now, to find the correct options all that we have to do is replace n by relevant integers and find the values of \theta that match.

For n=2, (Equation 2) gives us: \theta=2\times 180^{\circ}+(-1)^2(-230^{\circ})=360^{\circ}-230^{\circ}=130^{\circ}.

Thus, sin(230^{\circ})=sin(130^{\circ})

Now, we know that: -sin(-50^{\circ})=sin(50^{\circ})

Let n=-1, then:

\theta=(-1)\times 180^{\circ}+(-1)^{-1}(-230^{\circ})=-180^{\circ}+230^{\circ}=50^{\circ}

Thus, sin(-230^{\circ})=-sin(-50^{\circ})

Likewise, sin(-230^{\circ})=sin(50^{\circ})

Only the last option sin(-50^{\circ}) will never match sin(-230^{\circ}) because no integral value of n will ever give \theta=-50^{\circ}

Thus the last option is the correct option.
