Hey there,
Total = 860
Section 1 = 270
Section 2 = x + 150
Section 3 = x
Section 2 + 3 = 860 - 270
= 590
x+150+x = 590
x+x = 590 - 150
2x = 440
x= 220
Thus there were 220 spots in Section 2

Hope this helps ^_^

In a given right triangle, If 0 º < x < 90 º and cos x = √ 3 / 2, then sin x = ?

nordsb [41]

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The "Pythagorean relation" between trig functions can be used to find the sine.

<h3>Pythagorean relation</h3>

The relation between sine and cosine is the identity ...

sin(x)² +cos(x)² = 1

This can be solved for sin(x) in terms of cos(x):

sin(x) = √(1 -cos(x)²)

<h3>Application</h3>

For the present case, using the given cosine value, we find ...

sin(x) = √(1 -(√3/2)²) = √(1 -3/4) = √(1/4)

sin(x) = 1/2

<em>Additional comment</em>

The sine and cosine of an angle are the y and x coordinates (respectively) of the corresponding point on the unit circle. The right triangle with these legs will satisfy the Pythagorean theorem with ...

sin(x)² + cos(x)² = 1 . . . . . . where 1 is the hypotenuse (radius of unit circle)

A calculator can always be used to verify the result.
