A regular octagon means that each of the 8 sides are equal. So, each side is 20 inches. To find the total amount of wire, you just find the perimeter:

8 * 20 = 160 inches of wire

It is important to note that since this is a regular shape, all sides are equal, which means that the perimeter is proportional to the side lengths.

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

$sin\theta_1 = - \frac{2\sqrt{70}}{19}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that $\theta_1$ is in fourth quadrant.

$cos\theta_1$ is always positive in 4th quadrant and

$sin\theta_1$ is always negative in 4th quadrant.

Also, we know the following identity about $sin\theta$ and $cos\theta$ :

$sin^2\theta + cos^2\theta = 1$

Using \theta_1 in place of \theta:

$sin^2\theta_1 + cos^2\theta_1 = 1$

We are given that $cos\theta_1 = \frac{9}{19}$

$\Rightarrow sin^2\theta_1 + \dfrac{9^2}{19^2} = 1\\\Rightarrow sin^2\theta_1 = 1 - \dfrac{81}{361}\\\Rightarrow sin^2\theta_1 = \dfrac{361-81}{361}\\\Rightarrow sin^2\theta_1 = \dfrac{280}{361}\\\Rightarrow sin\theta_1 = \sqrt{\dfrac{280}{361}}\\\Rightarrow sin\theta_1 = +\dfrac{2\sqrt{70}}{19}, -\dfrac{2\sqrt{70}}{19}$
