We know that
the unit circle has a radius equals 1 unit

-120°------> is an angle belong to the III quadrant
so
the x and y coordinates will be negative
x=r*cos ∅
y=r*sin ∅
where
r=1
and 
∅=180-120-----> ∅=60°

therefore
x=(1)*cos 60°-----> x=1/2-----> x=-1/2   (remember x is negative)
y=(1)*sin 60°-----> y=√3/2-----> y=-√3/2  (remember y is negative

<span>let's apply the Pythagorean theorem
</span>x²+y²-----> (-1/2)²+(-√3/2)²----> (1/4)+(3/4)-----> 1----> is ok because 1 is the radius of the unit circle

the answer is
the coordinates of the terminal point are (-1/2,-√3/2)

jonny [76]

Answer:

x = -9/22 or -0.409 to the nearest thousandth.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cross multiplying we get:

(3x + 1)(x - 5) = (3x + 2)(x + 2)

3x^2 - 14x - 5 = 3x^2 +8x + 4

3x^2 - 3x^2 - 14x - 8x = 4 + 5

-22x = 9

x = -9/22
