If costheta=4/5 then what is sec^2theta

Mathematics
1 answer:
DaniilM [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

\sec^2(\theta)=\frac{25}{16}

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall what the relationship between cosine and secant:

\sec(\theta)=\frac{1}{\cos(\theta)}

In other words, secant is the reciprocal of cosine.

So, if we know cosine, we only need to find its reciprocal to find secant.

We are given that cosine is:

\cos(\theta)=\frac{4}{5}

Then secant must be:

\sec(\theta)=\frac{5}{4}

So:

\sec^2(\theta)=(\frac{5}{4})^2

Square:

\sec^2(\theta)=\frac{25}{16}

And we're done!

If ab = c - d, which of the following is an expression for d in terms of a, b, and c?
horsena [70]
ANSWER

d =  - ab + c


EXPLANATION


The given expression is

ab = c - d

To find an expression for d in terms of a, b, and c, means we want to make d the subject of the relation.


This means that, we need to isolate d on one side of the equation while all other terms are on the other side.



We subtract from both sides of the equation to obtain,


ab - c = - d



We now divide through by -1, to get,



- ab  +  c = d


Or


d = - ab  +  c

Pythagorean Theorem to solve for x. If the hypnoses is 10 m, and one leg is 6 m. Find the other leg x
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

The other leg X = 8m

Step-by-step explanation:

As per Pythagorean theorem-

Square of hypotenuse = sum of square of other two sides  of the triangle

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -

10^2 = 6^2 + X^2\\100 - 36 = X^2\\X^2 = 64\\X = 8m

The other leg X = 8m
