Find the value of tan theta if sin theta = 12/13 and theta is in quadrant 2

Mathematics

In quadrant 2, \sin\theta>0 and \cos\theta. Use the Pythagorean identity to establish that

\sin^2\theta+\cos^2\theta=1\implies\cos\theta=-\sqrt{1-\sin^2\theta}=-\dfrac5{13}

Then

\tan\theta=\dfrac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}=\dfrac{\frac{12}{13}}{-\frac5{13}}=-\dfrac{12}5

If angle x=55% and angle y=35, calculate the following 1.cos(x+y) ​
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

cos(X+Y) = cos(55+35) = cos(90) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

cos(X+Y) = cosXcosY - sinXsinY

cos(55+35) = cos(55)cos(35) - sin(55)sin(35)

cos(55+35) = cos(55)cos(35) - cos(90-55)cos(90-35)

cos(55+35) = cos(55)cos(35) - cos(35)cos(55)

cos(55+35) = 0

cos(90) = 0

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

x + y = 5

<u>3x - 4y = 8</u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u>

3x + 3y = 15

<u>3x - 4y = 8 </u>-

7y = 7

y = 1

x + y = 5

x + 1 = 5

x = 4

x = 4

y = 1

Hope it helps!
