Answer:

.894

Step-by-step explanation:

First thing to do is to solve for the height of the triangle, BD.  That's easy.  We have the length of the hypotenuse and the base, so Pythagorean's Theorem gives us that the height is 8.003255588 which rounds nicely to 8.  Now you have to call on the fond memories you have of the geometric mean in right triangles to solve the rest.  For the sin of x you need the hypotenuse of that smaller right triangle on the left, side AB.  First let's use geometric mean to find AD.  The formula for that, now that we know the height, is

BD^2=(AD)(DC)

Filling that in with numbers we have

8^2=(AD)16 and

64 = 16(AD).  Solve for AD to get that AD has a length of 4.  Now we know two of the three sides in that smaller triangle on the left and can solve for the hypotenuse.

8^2+4^2=c^2 and

64+16=c^2 so

c=√80 which simplifies to 4√5.  That means that the sin ratio for x is

\frac{8}{4\sqrt{5} }

which divides out to .894

Answer: The answer is A.

Step-by-step explanation: The only valid conclusion that is listed in the options is choice A. The correct one is that the length of a person’s foot is a cause of their shoe size, which implies that there is also a correlation between the length of a person’s foot and their shoe size.

Wendy goes to the gym every 4 days and swims every 6 days. If she went to the gym and swam today, in how many days will she do b
Mice21 [21]

In 12 days, Wendy will do the both again.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Wendy goes to gym every 4 days

Wendy swims every 6 days

We will find the least common multiple of both the numbers in order to determine the number of days in which she will do both.

4 = 4,8,12,16,20,....

6 = 6,12,18,24,.....

Therefore;

The least common multiple of 4 and 6 is 12.

Thus,

In 12 days, Wendy will do the both again.

If cos(x) = Three-fourths and tan(x) < 0, what is cos(2x)?
makvit [3.9K]

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of sin(2x) is \sin(2x) = - \frac{\sqrt{15}}{8}sin(2x)=−

How to determine the value of sin(2x)

The cosine ratio is given as:

\cos(x) = -\frac 14cos(x)=−

4

1

Calculate sine(x) using the following identity equation

\sin^2(x) + \cos^2(x) = 1sin

2

(x)+cos

2

(x)=1

So we have:

\sin^2(x) + (1/4)^2 = 1sin

2

(x)+(1/4)

2

=1

\sin^2(x) + 1/16= 1sin

2

(x)+1/16=1

Subtract 1/16 from both sides

\sin^2(x) = 15/16sin

2

(x)=15/16

Take the square root of both sides

\sin(x) = \pm \sqrt{15/16

Given that

tan(x) < 0

It means that:

sin(x) < 0

So, we have:

\sin(x) = -\sqrt{15/16

Simplify

\sin(x) = \sqrt{15}/4sin(x)=

15

/4

sin(2x) is then calculated as:

\sin(2x) = 2\sin(x)\cos(x)sin(2x)=2sin(x)cos(x)

So, we have:

\sin(2x) = -2 * \frac{\sqrt{15}}{4} * \frac 14sin(2x)=−2∗

This gives

\sin(2x) = - \frac{\sqrt{15}}{8}sin(2x)=−
