Three of these expressions give the distance between point A and point B on the number line

Answer:

Option A does not give the right expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

On the number line if there are two points P(a) and Q(b) given by coordinates a and b, then the distance between those two points will be given by  

d = |a - b| ......... (1)

which is independent of the position of the points.

Therefore, if point A is at - 3.5 and point B is at 7.5, then the distance between point A and point B will be given by  |7.5+3.5| or |- 3.5-7.5| or |7.5-(-3.5)|, but not by  |7.4-3.5|.

Hence, option A does not give the right expression. (Answer)

What is sin -1(1/2) if the terminal side of 0 is located in quadrant 1.
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

\sin^{-1}(\theta) is going to output a number in between \frac{-\pi}{2} and \frac{\pi}{2}.

Luckily you are looking for \theta in the 1st quadrant which is contained in the given interval above, so the answer just comes down to what the calculator returns from entering \sin^{-1}(\frac{1}{2}) in your calculator.

You may also use the unit circle.  sine value refers to the y-coordinate on there.

So you are looking for when the y-coordinate is 1/2 in the fist quadrant which is at 30 degrees.
