World Bank's threshold for poverty is $1.25 per person per day. 
For a family of four this gives:
Daily income = (number of people) * threshold
Daily income = 4 * $1.25
Daily income = $5
For a year this is:
Yearly income = (daily income) *365
Yearly income = $5 *365
Yearly income = $1825

U.S. poverty threshold is set at $29000. Portion of threshold can be calculated as:
Portion\text{ }of\text{ }threshold= \frac{Poverty\text{ }threshold\text{ }(World\text{ }Bank)}{Poverty\text{ }threshold\text{ }(U.S.)} *100\% \\  \\ Portion\text{ }of\text{ }threshold= \frac{1825}{29000} *100\% \\  \\ Portion\text{ }of\text{ }threshold=6.29\%

The poverty threshold measured by World Bank is 6.29% of the U.S. poverty threshold.

For which value of theta is cot (theta) undefined?
sattari [20]

The cotangent function is defined as the ratio between cosine and sine of a given angle, i.e.


\cot(x) = \frac{\cos(x)}{\sin(x)}


Since you can't have zero at the denominator, the cotangent function is not defined when the sine is zero.


Let's look at your option:


\sin(90^\circ) = 1, so the cotangent is defined here


\sin(180^\circ) = 0, so the cotangent is not defined here


\sin(270^\circ) = -1, so the cotangent is defined here


\sin(450^\circ) = \sin(360^\circ+90^\circ)=\sin(90^\circ) = 1, so the cotangent is defined here
