The median is 28; 16,24,x,48
Nookie1986 [14]
x = 32 

To find the media, you take the middle number. If there is no discrete middle number, take the sum of the two closest to the middle and divide by 2. 

(24 + x)/2 = 28

Multiply by 2 on both sides to get:

24 + x = 56

Subtract 24 from both sides to isolate the variable:

x = 56 - 24
x = 32

Let (-7, 2) be a point on the terminal side of 0.
nekit [7.7K]

By applying the definitions of <em>trigonometric</em> functions, the <em>exact</em> values of the sine, secant and tangent of the point on the <em>terminal</em> side are \sin \theta = \frac{2}{\sqrt{53}}, \sec \theta = -\frac{\sqrt{53}}{7} and \tan \theta = -\frac{2}{7}.

<h3>How to determine the exact values</h3>

In this question we need to find the exact values of three <em>trigonometric</em> functions associated with the <em>terminal</em> side of an angle. The following definitions are used:

Sine

\sin \theta = \frac{y}{\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}}     (1)

Secant

\sec \theta = \frac{\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}}{x}     (2)

Tangent

\tan \theta = \frac{y}{x}     (3)

If we know that x = - 7 and y = 2, then the exact values of the three <em>trigonometric</em> functions:

Sine

\sin \theta = \frac{2}{\sqrt{53}}

Secant

\sec \theta = -\frac{\sqrt{53}}{7}

Tangent

\tan \theta = -\frac{2}{7}

By applying the definitions of <em>trigonometric</em> functions, the <em>exact</em> values of the sine, secant and tangent of the point on the <em>terminal</em> side are \sin \theta = \frac{2}{\sqrt{53}}, \sec \theta = -\frac{\sqrt{53}}{7} and \tan \theta = -\frac{2}{7}.

<h3>Remark</h3>

The statement reports typing errors, correct form is shown below:

<em>Let (x, y) = (- 7, 2) be a point on the terminal side of θ. Find the exact value of sin θ, sec θ and tan θ.</em>
