Answer:

$AB = 10 units$

Step-by-step explanation:

The line of segment AB can be calculated using distance formula, $d = \sqrt{(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2}$ , to calculate the distance between point A(6, 2) and point B(0, 10).

A(6, 2) can be (x1, y1),

B(0, 10) can be (x2, y2)

$d = \sqrt{(0 - 6)^2 + (10 - 2)^2}$

$d = \sqrt{(-6)^2 + (8)^2}$

$d = \sqrt{36 + 64}$

$d = \sqrt{100}$

$d = 10$

I'll do Problem 8 to get you started

a = 4 and c = 7 are the two given sides

Use these values in the pythagorean theorem to find side b

$a^2 + b^2 = c^2\\\\4^2 + b^2 = 7^2\\\\16 + b^2 = 49\\\\b^2 = 49 - 16\\\\b^2 = 33\\\\b = \sqrt{33}\\\\$

With respect to reference angle A, we have:

opposite side = a = 4
adjacent side = b = $\sqrt{33}$
hypotenuse = c = 7

Now let's compute the 6 trig ratios for the angle A.

We'll start with the sine ratio which is opposite over hypotenuse.

$\sin(\text{angle}) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}}\\\\\sin(A) = \frac{a}{c}\\\\\sin(A) = \frac{4}{7}\\\\$

Then cosine which is adjacent over hypotenuse

$\cos(\text{angle}) = \frac{\text{adjacent}}{\text{hypotenuse}}\\\\\cos(A) = \frac{b}{c}\\\\\cos(A) = \frac{\sqrt{33}}{7}\\\\$

Tangent is the ratio of opposite over adjacent

$\tan(\text{angle}) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}}\\\\\tan(A) = \frac{a}{b}\\\\\tan(A) = \frac{4}{\sqrt{33}}\\\\\tan(A) = \frac{4\sqrt{33}}{\sqrt{33}*\sqrt{33}}\\\\\tan(A) = \frac{4\sqrt{33}}{(\sqrt{33})^2}\\\\\tan(A) = \frac{4\sqrt{33}}{33}\\\\$

Rationalizing the denominator may be optional, so I would ask your teacher for clarification.

So far we've taken care of 3 trig functions. The remaining 3 are reciprocals of the ones mentioned so far.

cosecant, abbreviated as csc, is the reciprocal of sine
secant, abbreviated as sec, is the reciprocal of cosine
cotangent, abbreviated as cot, is the reciprocal of tangent

So we'll flip the fraction of each like so:

$\csc(\text{angle}) = \frac{\text{hypotenuse}}{\text{opposite}} \ \text{ ... reciprocal of sine}\\\\\csc(A) = \frac{c}{a}\\\\\csc(A) = \frac{7}{4}\\\\\sec(\text{angle}) = \frac{\text{hypotenuse}}{\text{adjacent}} \ \text{ ... reciprocal of cosine}\\\\\sec(A) = \frac{c}{b}\\\\\sec(A) = \frac{7}{\sqrt{33}} = \frac{7\sqrt{33}}{33}\\\\\cot(\text{angle}) = \frac{\text{adjacent}}{\text{opposite}} \ \text{ ... reciprocal of tangent}\\\\\cot(A) = \frac{b}{a}\\\\\cot(A) = \frac{\sqrt{33}}{4}\\\\$

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

Summary:

The missing side is $b = \sqrt{33}$

The 6 trig functions have these results

$\sin(A) = \frac{4}{7}\\\\\cos(A) = \frac{\sqrt{33}}{7}\\\\\tan(A) = \frac{4}{\sqrt{33}} = \frac{4\sqrt{33}}{33}\\\\\csc(A) = \frac{7}{4}\\\\\sec(A) = \frac{7}{\sqrt{33}} = \frac{7\sqrt{33}}{33}\\\\\cot(A) = \frac{\sqrt{33}}{4}\\\\$

Rationalizing the denominator may be optional, but I would ask your teacher to be sure.
