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}

Answer:

5x^2+7x+30+\frac{102}{x-3}

Step-by-step explanation:

\mathrm{Divide\:the\:leading\:coefficients\:of\:the\:numerator\:}5x^3-8x^2+9x+12\\\mathrm{and\:the\:divisor\:}x-3\mathrm{\::\:}\frac{5x^3}{x}=5x^2\\\mathrm{Quotient}=5x^2\\\mathrm{Multiply\:}x-3\mathrm{\:by\:}5x^2:\:5x^3-15x^2\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}5x^3-15x^2\mathrm{\:from\:}5x^3-8x^2+9x+12\mathrm{\:to\:get\:new\:remainder}\\\mathrm{Remainder}=7x^2+9x+12\\\mathrm{Therefore}\\=5x^2+\frac{7x^2+9x+12}{x-3}

\mathrm{Divide\:the\:leading\:coefficients\:of\:the\:numerator\:}7x^2+9x+12\\\mathrm{and\:the\:divisor\:}x-3\mathrm{\::\:}\frac{7x^2}{x}=7x\\\mathrm{Quotient}=7x\\\mathrm{Multiply\:}x-3\mathrm{\:by\:}7x:\:7x^2-21x\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}7x^2-21x\mathrm{\:from\:}7x^2+9x+12\mathrm{\:to\:get\:new\:remainder}\\\mathrm{Remainder}=30x+12\\\mathrm{Therefore}\\=5x^2+7x+\frac{30x+12}{x-3}\\

\mathrm{Divide\:the\:leading\:coefficients\:of\:the\:numerator\:}30x+12\\\mathrm{and\:the\:divisor\:}x-3\mathrm{\::\:}\frac{30x}{x}=30\\\mathrm{Quotient}=30\\\mathrm{Multiply\:}x-3\mathrm{\:by\:}30:\:30x-90\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}30x-90\mathrm{\:from\:}30x+12\mathrm{\:to\:get\:new\:remainder}\\\mathrm{Remainder}=102\\\mathrm{Therefore}\\=5x^2+7x+30+\frac{102}{x-3}

Hey, There i hope you are haveing a great day :) So I look at the example so it should be the same I think like how you work out the mean by adding all the numbers and then diving them so,  (8 + 4 + 8 + 8 + 10 + 2 + 4 + 4) = 48 and now you know you have got 8 numbers there a divide them so 48/8 = 6. and then I think you take away it so, 8 - 6 = 2 4 - 6 =-2 8 - 6 = 2 8 - 6 = 2 10 - 6 = 4 2 - 6 = -4 4 - 6 = -2 4 - 6 = -2 and then 2 + -2 + 2 + 2 + 4 + -4 + -2 + -2 divide 8 = 0 and you can't divide anything by 0 so that would be the answer.
