Answer:
sec(θ) = -5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
It can be helpful to draw a triangle with sides that produce the given ratio. See the attachment. Then the third side of the triangle can be found using the Pythagorean theorem, if necessary. Finally, the ratio for the desired trig function can be determined.
sec = hypotenuse/adjacent
sec(θ) = 5/-2 = -5/2
__
If you don't want to do that, or if you have various trig identities memorized, you can use the appropriate trig identity.
sin² + cos² = 1
so ...
sec² = 1/cos² = 1/(1 -sin²)
sec = 1/√(1 -sin²)
Since the tangent is positive, this is a third-quadrant angle. The secant will be negative.
sec(θ) = -1/√(1 -(21/25)) = -√(25/4) . . . . . filling in the given value for sin(θ)
sec(θ) = -5/2
let x be the first integer
x+ 2 the second integer ( two consecutive even )
smaller integer added to three times the larger <span>x + 3 ( x+2)
</span>two less than five times the smaller <span>5x - 2</span>
x + 3 ( x+2) = 5x - 2
x+3x +6 = 5x -2
x=8
the first integer = 8
the second is x+2 =10
Answer:
83
Step-by-step explanation:
The nature of the roots can be determined by the determinant of the equation. The determinant is:
b² - 4ac
If this is positive, there are two roots
If this is 0, there is only one root
If this is negative, there are complex roots
