_______________


Let  \mathsf{\theta=cos^{-1}\!\left(\dfrac{4}{5}\right).}


\mathsf{0\le \theta\le\pi,}  because that is the range of the inverse cosine funcition.


Also,

\mathsf{cos\,\theta=cos\!\left[cos^{-1}\!\left(\dfrac{4}{5}\right)\right]}\\\\\\
\mathsf{cos\,\theta=\dfrac{4}{5}}\\\\\\ \mathsf{5\,cos\,\theta=4}


Square both sides and apply the fundamental trigonometric identity:

\mathsf{(5\,cos\,\theta)^2=4^2}\\\\
\mathsf{5^2\,cos^2\,\theta=4^2}\\\\
\mathsf{25\,cos^2\,\theta=16\qquad\qquad(but,~cos^2\,\theta=1-sin^2\,\theta)}\\\\
\mathsf{25\cdot (1-sin^2\,\theta)=16}

\mathsf{25-25\,sin^2\,\theta=16}\\\\
\mathsf{25-16=25\,sin^2\,\theta}\\\\
\mathsf{9=25\,sin^2\,\theta}\\\\
\mathsf{sin^2\,\theta=\dfrac{9}{25}}


\mathsf{sin\,\theta=\pm\,\sqrt{\dfrac{9}{25}}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{sin\,\theta=\pm\,\sqrt{\dfrac{3^2}{5^2}}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{sin\,\theta=\pm\,\dfrac{3}{5}}


But \mathsf{0\le \theta\le\pi,} which means \theta lies either in the 1st or the 2nd quadrant. So \mathsf{sin\,\theta} is a positive number:

\mathsf{sin\,\theta=\dfrac{3}{5}}\\\\\\
\therefore~~\mathsf{sin\!\left[cos^{-1}\!\left(\dfrac{4}{5}\right)\right]=\dfrac{3}{5}\qquad\quad\checkmark}


I hope this helps. =)

Suppose that the function f is defined. , for all real numbers, as follows.
aivan3 [116]

Answer:   <em>The values of......</em>

<em>f(-5)=\frac{9}{4}\\ \\ f(-2)= -1\\ \\ f(4)=0</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is:   \left \{ {{f(x)= \frac{1}{4}x^2 -4, if x\neq -2} \atop {=-1, if x=-2}} \right.

For f(-5),  the value of x is -5, which is not equal to -2.

So,  f(-5)= \frac{1}{4}(-5)^2 -4 = \frac{1}{4}(25)-4 =\frac{25}{4}-4=\frac{25-16}{4}=\frac{9}{4}

For f(-2),  the value of x is -2.

So,  f(-2)= -1

For f(4),  the value of x is 4, which is not equal to -2.

So,  f(4)=\frac{1}{4}(4)^2 -4 =\frac{1}{4}(16)-4 =4-4=0

Alika [10]

Using distance formula :

  • \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1) {}^{2}  + (y_2 - y_1) {}^{2} }

  • \sqrt{(8 - ( - 4)) {}^{2}  + ( - 7 - ( - 2)) {}^{2} }

  • \sqrt{(12) {}^{2} + ( - 5) {}^{2}  }

  • \sqrt{144 + 25}

  • \sqrt{169}
