If sine theta equals three over four, what are the values of cos θ and tan θ?

ratelena [41]

Answer:

In words, Cosine theta equals plus or minus square root of seven over 4,tangent theta equals plus or minus three over root seven

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that sin ∅ =3/4 It means the ratio of the opposite side to the hypotenuse side is 3:4.

Using the Pythagoras theorem we can calculate the hypotenuse adjacent as follows.

a²+b²=c²

a²=c²-b²

a²=4²-3²

a²=16-9

a²=7

a=√7

Then Cos ∅= opposite/ adjacent

=√7/4

Then Tan ∅ = opposite/adjacent

=3/√7

In words, Cosine theta equals plus or minus square root of seven over 4,tangent theta equals plus or minus three over root seven.

Prove that the triangle EDF is isosceles. Give reasons for your answer.

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

$\triangle EDF$ is isosceles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please have a look at the attached figure.

We are given the following things:

$\angle EDF = y$

$\text{External }\angle DFG = 90 +\dfrac{y}{2}$

Let us try to find out $\angle E$ and $\angle DFE$ . After that we will compare them.

Finding  $\angle DFE$ :

Side EG is a straight line so $\angle GFE = 180$

$\angle GFE$ is sum of internal $\angle DFE$ and external $\angle DFG$

$\angle GFE = 180 = \angle DFE + \angle DFG\\\Rightarrow 180 = \angle DFE + (90+\dfrac{y}{2})\\\Rightarrow \angle DFE = 180 - 90 - \dfrac{y}{2}\\\Rightarrow \angle DFE = 90 - \dfrac{y}{2} ....... (1)$

Finding  $\angle E$ :

Property of external angle: External angle in a triangle is equal to the sum of two opposite internal angles of a triangle.

i.e. external $\angle DFG$ = $\angle E + \angle EDF$

$\Rightarrow 90+\dfrac{y}{2} = \angle E + y\\\Rightarrow \angle E = 90+\dfrac{y}{2} -y\\\Rightarrow \angle E = 90-\dfrac{y}{2} ....... (2)$

Comparing equations (1) and (2):

It can be clearly seen that:

$\angle DFE = \angle E =90-\dfrac{y}{2}$

The two angles of $\triangle EDF$ are equal hence $\triangle EDF$ is isosceles.

Every weekday, Mr. Jones bikes from his home to his job. Sometimes he rides along two roads, the long route that is shown by the

notka56 [123]

Answer:

(A)6 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we determine the value of a using Pythagoras Theorem.

$Hypotenuse^2=Opposite^2+Adjacent^2\\17^2=a^2+15^2\\a^2=17^2-15^2\\a^2=289-225\\a^2=64\\a^2=8^2\\a=8$ km$

Therefore:

Distance along the long route = 8 + 15 =23 km

Distance along the shortcut =17 km

Difference =23-17 =6km

Therefore, Mr. Jones bikes 6km less when he takes the shortcut instead of the long route.

Is this statement true? (x/y)-z=x/(y-z)

Bond [772]

False, this statement is not true, because if you change the parenthesis, it means that you will do that thing first (PEMDAS)
Therefore, the sstatement is false, because the answers will be completely different,

hope this helps

Someone please help me 4(d + 6) =

zaharov [31]

Answer:

4d+24

Step-by-step explanation:

The distributive property says that 4(d+6)=4d+(4)(6)

which simplifies to 4d+24

(I hope that's what you needed, please lmk if you needed more than just simplifying.)
