Answer:

If the sine of an angle equals to {2}/{5}, then the tangent of the angle could be:

<em>5. \frac{2}{\sqrt{21} }</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Imagine a triangle
  • The sine of an angle is equal to the length of the opposite leg over the hypotenuse.
  • <em>HINT: SOHCAHTOA</em>

<u>To find the adjacent leg (a): </u>

Using the pythagorean theorem: a^{2} + b^{2} =c^{2}

- <em>a </em>and <em>b</em> are the lenght of the sides and <em>c </em>is the hypotenuse

we know one side and the hypotenuse. Therefore plugging into the formula we get:

a^{2} + 2^{2} =5^{2}

where <em>a</em> is the adjacent leg of the triangle, solving for a we get:

a^{2} =5^{2}- 2^{2}

a^{2} = 21

a = \sqrt{21}

<u>To find the tangent of the angle: </u>

Since tangent is opposite leg over the adjacent leg:

tan θ = \frac{2}{\sqrt{21} }

8.4.9 On or off the line &amp; Practice Problems
Andrews [41]

Answer:

Number of quarters → 15

Number of dimes → 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of dimes I have = y

And number of quarters = x

Since, I have amount in my pocket = $2

Therefore, 0.10y + 0.25x = 2

100(0.10y + 0.25x) = 100×2

25x + 10y = 200

5x + 2y = 40

2y = -5x + 40

y = -2.5x + 20 ---------(1)

Total number of coins in my pocket = 17

x + y = 17

y = -x + 17 ---------(2)  

By using a graphing calculator we can graph these two lines (As attached)

Solution of the given system of equations will be the point of intersection of these lines.

Solution → (2, 15)

Number of quarters → 15

Number of dimes → 2
