Suppose each edge of the cube shown in the figure is 10 inches long. Find the sine and cosine of the angle formed by diagonals D

tatiyna

Check the picture below.

$sin(EDG )=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{10}}{\underset{hypotenuse}{10\sqrt{3}}}\implies sin(EDG )=\cfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\implies sin(EDG )=\cfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}} \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{rationalizing the denominator}}{sin(EDG )=\cfrac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3^2}}\implies sin(EDG )=\cfrac{\sqrt{3}}{3}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill$

$cos(EDG )=\cfrac{\stackrel{adjacent}{10\sqrt{2}}}{\underset{hypotenuse}{10\sqrt{3}}}\implies cos(EDG )=\cfrac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{3}}\implies cos(EDG )=\cfrac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{3}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}} \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{rationalizing the denominator}}{cos(EDG )=\cfrac{\sqrt{6}}{\sqrt{3^2}}\implies cos(EDG )=\cfrac{\sqrt{6}}{3}}$

<span>Answer: The error in Larry's construction is Option C.

He set the width of the compass to the diameter of the circle. The step 1 should be: Set the width of the compass to the radius of the circle.</span>

Can someone explain to me step by step how to do <br> 5/13x=-9

snow_tiger [21]

$\frac{5}{13} x=-9
$
Multiply each side by reciprocal of 5/13This gives;x=-9* $\frac{13}{5}$
x=-23.4
