Answer:

hello : sin(θ) = 4/25

Step-by-step explanation:

you know : cos²(θ) + sin²(θ) =1   and : cos(θ) = - 3/5

(-3/5)² + sin²(θ) =1

9/25 + sin²(θ) =1

sin²(θ) =1 -9/25

sin²(θ) = 16/25

sin(θ) = 4/25 or sin(θ) = - 4/25

in quadrant 2 :  sin(θ) > 0

so : sin(θ) = 4/25

Answer:

sin(theta)=\frac{4}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

if cos theta = -3/5 in quadrant 2, find out sin(theta)

cos(x)=\frac{-3}{5}

cos is negative in second and third quadrant

Here cos is in second quadrant.

Sin is positive in second quadrant .

cos(x)=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

adjacent side= 3 , hypotenuse = 5

Lets use Pythagorean theorem c^2=a^2 + b^2

5^2=3^2 + b^2

25=9 + b^2 Subtract 9 from both sides

b^2= 16

b=4

opposite side = 4

sin(x)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

sin(theta)=\frac{4}{5}

Keisha is walking around a track that is 400 yards long. She has walked around the track 5 times so far. How many more yards doe
anyanavicka [17]
400 yards x 5= 2,000 yards keisha walked. 1 mile equals 1,760 yards. Now to find the 2 miles in yards multiply 1760 x 2= 3,520. So 2 miles equal 3,520 yards. Now subtract 3,520 - 2,000
