I hope this helps you

y= -15 x= -20

y=12 x=?

?.-15=12.-20

?=12.20/15

?=16

x=16

Need help with trigonometry

vovangra [49]

Answer:

$\sf \tan(A) & =\dfrac{9\sqrt{22}}{44}$

Step-by-step explanation:

If angle C is the right angle, then side c is the hypotenuse.

Use Pythagoras' Theorem $a^2+b^2=c^2$ to find the length of side a:

Given:

b = 2√22
c = 13

$\implies a^2+(2 \sqrt{22})^2=13^2$

$\implies a^2+88=169$

$\implies a^2=81$

$\implies a=\sqrt{81}$

$\implies a=9$

<u>Tan Trig Ratio</u>

$\sf \tan(\theta)=\dfrac{O}{A}$

where:

$\theta$ is the angle
O is the side opposite the angle
A is the side adjacent the angle

Given:

$\theta$ = A
O = side opposite angle A = a = 9
A = side adjacent angle A = b = 2√22

$\begin{aligned}\implies \sf \tan(A) & =\dfrac{9}{2\sqrt{22}}\\\\ & =\dfrac{9}{2\sqrt{22}} \times \dfrac{\sqrt{22}}{\sqrt{22}}\\\\ & = \dfrac{9\sqrt{22}}{44} \end{aligned}$

What is the slope of a line that passes through (-4,-13) and (19,11)

inysia [295]

The slope of the line is the gradient, which you can find through rise over run

m (gradient) = (y1 - y2) / (x1 - x2)

where (x1, y1) is the coordinate of the first point, and (x2, x2) is the coordinate of the second point

in your question:
x1 = -4
x2 = 19
y1 = -13
y2 = 11

m = (-13 -11) / (-4 -19) = -24 / -23 = 24/23 or 1.04 (2d.p.)

hope that helps :)
