Answer:

Larger angle: 80 degrees

Smaller angle: 10 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

complementary angles = two angles that add up to 90 degrees

x = larger angle

x + x - 70 = 90 Add like terms

2x - 70 = 90 Add 70 on both sides

2x = 160 Isolate the variable by dividing 2 on both sides

x = 80

x = larger angle , 80 degrees

x - 70 = smaller angle , 10 degree

if a shape is a regular pentagon with five sides, which of the following must be true? Check all that apply

julsineya [31]

Answer:

A. It has reflectional symmetry

B. It is symmetrical

D. It has five lines of symmetry

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A regular pentagon has 5 sides and 5 lines of symmetry. The number of lines of symmetry in a regular polygon is equal to the number of sides

Every regular polygon has reflectional symmetry

Regular polygons are symmetrical

therefore

A. It has reflectional symmetry ------> Is true

B. It is symmetrical -----> Is true

C. It has exactly one line of symmetry ----> Is false

D. It has five lines of symmetry -----> Is true

Given sin theta= 6/11 and sec theta < 0, find cos theta and tan theta.

bekas [8.4K]

Answer: option a.

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, we know that:

$cos^2(\theta)=1-sen^2(\theta)\\\\tan(\theta)=\frac{sin(\theta)}{cos(\theta)}$

Substitute $sin(\theta)=\frac{6}{11}$ into the first equation, solve for the cosine and simplify. Then, you obtain:

$cos(\theta)=\±\sqrt{1-(\frac{6}{11})^2}\\\\cos(\theta)=\±\sqrt{\frac{85}{121}}\\\\ cos(\theta)=\±\frac{\sqrt{85}}{11}$

As $sec\theta$ then $cos\theta$ :

$cos(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{85}}{11}$

Now we can find $tan\theta$ :

$tan\theta=\frac{\frac{6}{11}}{-\frac{\sqrt{85}}{11}}\\\\tan\theta=-\frac{6\sqrt{85}}{85}$
