Given that tan 0=-4/7 , and 270 degrees <0<360 degrees , what is the exact value of sec0?

Elanso [62]

I take it you meant θ angle, anyway.

we know the tan(θ) = -4/7... alrite, we also know that 270° < θ < 360°, which is another to say that θ is in the IV quadrant, where the adjacent side or "x" value is positive whilst the opposite side or "y" value is negative.

$\bf tan(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{-4}}{\stackrel{adjacent}{7}}\impliedby \textit{now let's find the \underline{hypotenuse}}
\\\\\\
\textit{using the pythagorean theorem}
\\\\
c^2=a^2+b^2\implies c=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}
\qquad 
\begin{cases}
c=hypotenuse\\
a=adjacent\\
b=opposite\\
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
c=\sqrt{7^2+(-4)^2}\implies \implies c=\sqrt{65}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
sec(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{\sqrt{65}}}{\stackrel{adjacent}{7}}$

darcy,Jason n maria share $268. Jason has $20 more than darcy n maria has twice as much money as Jason. how much money do darcy

jok3333 [9.3K]

X is how much Darcy has because she has the least. (x+20) is how much Jason has and 2(x+20) is how much Maria has.
x+(x+20)+2(x+20)=268
4x+60=268
4x=208
x= $52

Darcy has $52
Jason has $72
Maria has $144

Take west to be the positive direction. The height of a sloped roof above the place where you stand is 12

den301095 [7]

<u>Given:</u>

Take west to be the positive direction. The height of a sloped roof above the place where you stand is 12 feet. If you move 3 feet west, the height is 10 feet.

We need to determine the slope.

Let x denote the standing place.

Let y denote the height.

Writing the given as coordinates, we get;

(0,12) and (3,10)

<u>Slope</u>:

The slope can be determined using the formula,

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$
