Answer: option 3 is the correct answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us look at the various trigonometric ratios
Sin Ф = opposite side/ hypotenuse
Cos Ф = adjacent side / hypotenuse
Tan Ф = opposite side / adjacent side
Therefore, tan Ф = sin Ф / cos Ф
This means that if cos Ф=-8/17 and sin Ф is negative, then the hypotenuse is negative
To determine the adjacent side, we will apply Pythagoras theorem
Hypotenuse ^2 = opposite ^2 + adjacent ^2
-17^2 = 8^2 + adjacent^2
adjacent^2 = 289 - 64 = 225
adjacent = √225 = 15
tan Ф = 8/15
Answer:
y = 7x +2
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
calculate m using the slope formula
m =
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 2 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 1, - 5 )
m = =
= 7
the line crosses the y- axis at (0, 2 ) ⇒ c = 2
y = 7x + 2 ← equation of line
