Find the value of cos θ if the angle θ is in the third quadrant and sinθ= -0.8

Mathematics

Correct option is D) -0.6.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We have sin\alpha  = -0.8 . Also, we know that cos\alpha  = \sqrt{1- (sin\alpha } )^{2} . Let's find out value of cos\alpha  using above formula:

cos\alpha  = \sqrt{1- (sin\alpha } )^{2}

⇒ cos\alpha  = \sqrt{1- (sin\alpha } )^{2}

⇒ cos\alpha  = \sqrt{1- (-0.8 } )^{2}

⇒ cos\alpha  = \sqrt{1- (0.64 } )^{}

⇒ cos\alpha  = \sqrt{0.36}

⇒ cos\alpha  = 0.6

But we know that cos\alpha is negative in third quadrant , Therefore cos\alpha  = -0.6.

Hence, correct option is D) -0.6.

n a basketball tournament, team A scored 6 more points than 3 times as many points as team B scored. Team C scored 45 more point
Sergio039 [100]
To solve this problem we want to let X equal the amount of points that team A scored. Now we want to express the amount of points that team B scored in terms of X. If team A scored 7 more points than team B then team B scored X-7 points. We know that together they scored 163 points so we can set up this equation: x + x - 7 = 163 2x - 7 = 163 2x = 155 X = 78 Team A scored 78 points

A mechanic charged $220.28 to repair a car. The price included charges for 3 hours of labor and $126.53 for parts. How much does
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

$31.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up an equation.

$220. 28 - total

$126.53 - cost for parts

3 - # of hours

? - price per hour

3h + $126.53 = $220.28

Subtract $126.53 from both sides.

3h = $93.75

Divide by 3.

h = $31.25

The mechanic charges $31.25 per hour for labor.

Hope that helps.
