If θ is in Quadrant III and sinθ = -3/5, then cosθ = _____.

1 answer:

4 0

Because the angle omega is in QIII, the adjacent side lies to the left of the origin and thus is represented by a negative value. Since sin omega = -3/5, the opposite side is also negative. Use the Pythagorean Theorem to obtain the length of the adjacent side: 5^2 = (-3)^2 + x^2, or 25 = 9 + x^2, or x^2 = 16.

Solving for x: x = plus or minus 4. Since we are in QIII, let x = -4.

Then cos omega is opp / hyp, or -4/5.

Answer:

1 : 64

Step-by-step explanation:

Model:

1/2 in * 1/6 in = 1/12 in^2

Real:

1/3 ft * 1/9 ft = 1/3 * 12 in * 1/9 * 12 in = 16/3 in^2

model : real

1/12 / 16/3 = 1/12 * 3/16 = 3/192 = 1/64

model : real = 1 : 64

Drag values to order them from least to greatest, with least at the top.

GenaCL600 [577]

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1- You must rewrite each value shown in the picture attached, in decimal form, as following:

6π-6=12.84
π^3=31
√99=9.94

2- Now, you can order the values from least to greatest:

√99
6π-6
π^3

The answer is:

√99
6π-6
π^3
