Answer: option 3 is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us look at the various trigonometric ratios

Sin Ф = opposite side/ hypotenuse

Cos Ф = adjacent side / hypotenuse

Tan Ф = opposite side / adjacent side

Therefore, tan Ф = sin Ф / cos Ф

This means that if cos Ф=-8/17 and sin Ф is negative, then the hypotenuse is negative

To determine the adjacent side, we will apply Pythagoras theorem

Hypotenuse ^2 = opposite ^2 + adjacent ^2

-17^2 = 8^2 + adjacent^2

adjacent^2 = 289 - 64 = 225

adjacent = √225 = 15

tan Ф = 8/15

Answer:

$\dfrac{\sqrt[12]{55296}}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Rationalize the denominator, then use a common root for the numerator.

$\dfrac{\sqrt[4]{6}}{\sqrt[3]{2}}=\dfrac{(2\cdot 3)^{\frac{1}{4}}}{2^{\frac{1}{3}}}\\\\=\dfrac{(2\cdot 3)^{\frac{1}{4}}}{2^{\frac{1}{3}}}\cdot\dfrac{2^{\frac{2}{3}}}{2^{\frac{2}{3}}}=\dfrac{2^{\frac{1}{4}+\frac{2}{3}}3^{\frac{1}{4}}}{2}\\\\=\dfrac{2^{\frac{11}{12}}3^{\frac{3}{12}}}{2}=\dfrac{\sqrt[12]{2^{11}3^{3}}}{2}\\\\=\dfrac{\sqrt[12]{55296}}{2}$

Find the value of x..

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The answer is 116

Step-by-step explanation:

Because this shape is a quadrilateral, so the sum of the angles of a quadrilateral is a total of 360 degrees. So i added 90 + 90 + 64 = 244. And 360 - 244 = 116.
