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.

Solve for w. 0.05w = 15
steposvetlana [31]
In order to find the value first multiply both sides by 100 to simplify the equation:
0.05w*100=15*100
5w=1500
Next, divide both sides of the equation by 5:
5w/5=1500/5
w=300
The final solution is w=300!

Hope i could help.

A bit stuck on how to do this
Helen [10]

Answer:

x = 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

Two sides are the same length, so the angles opposite them are the same size.

The sum of the angles = 180°. One angle is 100°, so the sum of the remaining two angles is 80°.

Since the remaining two angles are congruent, each is 40°.
