Answer: Choice D) sin(x)/cos(y) = 1

---------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------

Label the sides as shown in the image attachment. 

P = horizontal leg (opposite of angle x; adajcent to angle y)
Q = vertical leg (opposite of angle y; adajcent to angle x)
R = hypotenuse (longest side; always opposite the 90 degree angle)

Use the definitions of sine and cosine to say...

sin(Angle) = opposite/hypotenuse
sin(x) = P/R

and

cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(y) = P/R

Notice how sin(x) = cos(y). This is true any time x+y = 90 which is the case here (x and y are complementary angles). A more specific example is sin(30) = cos(60) which are both equal to 1/2 or 0.5

Since sin(x) = cos(y), this means sin(x)/cos(y) = 1 as any expression divided by itself is equal to 1. Keep in mind that cos(y) cannot equal zero.

This is why choice D is the final answer.

side note: something like cos(x)/sin(y) or sin(y)/cos(x) or similar are all equal to 1 as long as x+y = 90

Chad and Victoria are playing a game with a quarter and a spinner divided into sixths numbered one through six each player spins
rodikova [14]
The simple way to do this is to multiply the number of outcomes of one object times the number of outcomes in the other object. In this case a quarter has 2 sides, heads and tails. Since the spinner has 6 sections, there are 6 outcomes.


With this we can do, 2x6=12.

Therefore there are 12 outcomes

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

  Produce only Product B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The contribution margin per machine hour for product A is ...

  ($16 -$6)/(5 hour) = $2 per hour

The contribution margin per machine hour for product B is ...

  ($12 -$5)/(3 hour) ≈ $2.33 per hour

The company should produce the maximum possible number of the product that contributes the most per machine hour: Product B.
