Trick question. See these negative signs? The left number is -9.375, and the right number is -0.8068181818181818... Notice that even though the right number looks like a smaller answer, it is closer to 0 on a number line, because it is negative. -71/88 is the correct answer.
30/16=15/8...............
OK. I used my calculator to evaluate sec(85 degrees).
My calculator doesn't have a "sec" button on it.
But I remembered that
sec of an angle = 1 / (cosine of the same angle) .
So I used my calculator to find cos(85), and then I hit the
" 1/x " key, and got 11.474, which I knew to be sec(85).
