The exact value of sin (-270) is determined using the calculator in degrees mode. The answer is equal to 1. If the radians mode is used, -270 is equal to -2 pi/3. Hence using the calculator, we can verify that the answer is still 1. The value of -270 matters.

Given the following trigonometric ratio, enumerate the meaning ratio

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

The trigonometric ratios are presented below:

$\sin \theta = \frac{AC}{\sqrt{AC^{2} + BC^{2}}}$

$\cos \theta = \frac{BC}{\sqrt{AC^{2} + BC^{2}}}$

$\cot \theta = \frac{BC}{AC}$

$\sec \theta = \frac{\sqrt{AC^{2}+BC^{2}}}{BC}$

$\csc \theta = \frac{\sqrt{AC^{2}+BC^{2}}}{AC}$

Step-by-step explanation:

From Trigonometry we know the following definitions for each trigonometric ratio:

Sine

$\sin \theta = \frac{y}{h}$ (1)

Cosine

$\cos \theta = \frac{x}{h}$ (2)

Tangent

$\tan \theta = \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} = \frac{y}{x}$ (3)

Cotangent

$\cot \theta = \frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta} = \frac{x}{y}$ (4)

Secant

$\sec \theta = \frac{1}{\cos \theta} = \frac{h}{x}$ (5)

Cosecant

$\csc \theta = \frac{1}{\sin \theta} = \frac{h}{y}$ (6)

Where:

$x$ - Adjacent leg.

$y$ - Opposite leg.

$h$ - Hypotenuse.

The length of the hypotenuse is determined by the Pythagorean Theorem:

$h = \sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}$

If $y = AC$ and $x = BC$ , then the trigonometric ratios are presented below:

$\sin \theta = \frac{AC}{\sqrt{AC^{2} + BC^{2}}}$

$\cos \theta = \frac{BC}{\sqrt{AC^{2} + BC^{2}}}$

$\cot \theta = \frac{BC}{AC}$

$\sec \theta = \frac{\sqrt{AC^{2}+BC^{2}}}{BC}$

$\csc \theta = \frac{\sqrt{AC^{2}+BC^{2}}}{AC}$

You spin the spinner shown below once. The spinner has 4 equal sectors colored pink, purple, blue, and green. What is P(blue)?

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{4}$ or 0.25 or 25%. Answer as instructed in the question.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are four equal parts and since the spinner is unbiased, the probabilities will be equal.
