Find the cosine ratio of angle Θ. Clue: Use the slash symbol ( / ) to represent the fraction bar, and enter the fraction with no
spaces. Triangle ABC is shown. AB measures 4. BC measures 5. CA measures 3. The angle formed at point C is marked theta, and angle A is the right angle.
1 answer:
Answer:
Cosθ = 3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
In ∆ ABC.
AB measures = 4
BC measures = 5
CA measures = 3
The angle formed at point C is marked theta
angle A is the right angle
Find attached the diagram from the given information.
We are to find the cosine ratio. To do this, we would apply SOHCAHTOA in trigonometry
Sine ratio: Sinθ = opposite /hypotenuse
Cosine ratio: Cosθ = adjacent/hypotenuse
Tangent ratio: Tanθ = opposite/adjacent
From the diagram,
adjacent = AC
hypotenuse = BC
Using the above formula,
Cosθ = adjacent/hypotenuse = AC/BC
Cosθ = 3/5

Hmmm so, parallel lines have the same slope, so a line that's parallel to <span>y=1/3x-5, will also have the same slope as that one, what would that be anyway? </span>
, well, low and behold, since that equation is in slope-intercept form already, we can see is just 1/3.
<span>
so, what is the equation of a line whose slope is 1/3 and runs through 3, -7?

Answer:
finding the number of equal-sized parts into which a number can be split
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us split the number 80 into 10 equal parts.
80 = 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8
= 8 + 8 + 8 +...to 10 times
= 8(10)
or
So, if N is any number and p is one of its equal part, then the number of parts into which N is split by p is .
Hence, finding the number of equal-sized parts is best modeled with a division expression.
