Answer: Angle A = 53.9 degrees

Step-by-step explanation: We have a right angled triangle with two sides clearly given and one angle to be calculated. If the angle to be calculated is angle A, then having angle A as our reference angle, line AC (10 units) is the adjacent, line CB is the opposite while line AB (17 units) is the hypotenuse. Having been given the adjacent and the hypotenuse, we can now use the trigonometric ratio as follows;

CosA = adjacent/hypotenuse

CosA = 10/17

CosA = 0.5882

By use of the calculator or table of values,

A = 53.97

Approximately to the nearest tenth,

A = 53.9 degrees

If sin theta = -1/2 and lies in the third quadrant, what is the cos?

never [62]

Sin angle that equals the 1/2 value is the 30 degree on the 1st Quadrant.

The angle of 30 degree on the 3rd Quadrant is equivalent to (formula and circle in the 1st photo) 180 + 30 = 210°.

So theta = 210° (3rd Quadrant) = 30° (1st Quadrant).

$cos \: 30\degree = \sqrt{3} \div 2$

Now just transfer the cos 30° to the 3rd Quadrant and the signal will be negative (as shown in the 2nd photo attached).

$cos \: 210 \degree = - \sqrt{3} \div 2$

Ratling [72]

Answer:

The standard deviation of weight for this species of cockroaches is 4.62.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A different species of cockroach has weights that are approximately Normally distributed with a mean of 50 grams. After measuring the weights of many of these cockroaches, a lab assistant reports that 14% of the cockroaches weigh more than 55 grams.

To find : What is the approximate standard deviation of weight for this species of cockroaches?

Solution :

We have given,

Mean $\mu=50$
