What are the values of sin α and tan α, if: cosα=0.6

Mathematics
1 answer:
olganol [36]2 years ago
6 0

Positive cosine is first or fourth quadrant.  So we don't know the sign of the sine or the tangent.

Everybody's favorite right triangle is 3/4/5 and here we have

\left(\dfrac 3 5 \right)^2 + \left(\dfrac 4 5 \right)^2 = 1

So if

\cos \alpha = 0.6 = \dfrac 3 5

then

\sin \alpha = \pm \dfrac{4}{5} = \pm 0.8

and

\tan \alpha = \dfrac{\sin \alpha}{\cos \alpha} = \dfrac{\pm 0.8}{0.6}=\pm \dfrac 4 3

Explain, with a test, why the two triangles in each figure are similar. Find the
frutty [35]

Answer:

x = 3, y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached,

If ΔADE and ΔABC are similar triangles, their corresponding sides will be in the same ratio.

By this property,

\frac{AB}{AD}=\frac{AC}{AE}=\frac{BC}{DE}

\frac{AB}{AD}=\frac{AC}{AE}

\frac{AD+BD}{AD}=\frac{AE+EC}{AE}

\frac{3}{2}=\frac{x+1.5}{x}

3x = 2x + 3

3x - 2x = 3

x = 3

Similarly, \frac{AB}{AD}=\frac{BC}{DE}

\frac{3}{2}=\frac{y}{4}

y = \frac{3\times 4}{2}

y = 6

An ant crawls at a rate of 216 ft per minute.
AysviL [449]
First, we need to understand the speed formula:

The time used = distance ÷ rate

In this case, the time needed would be:

5 1/5 ÷ 2 1/6
= (5×5+1)/5 ÷ (2×6+1)/6
=26/5 ÷ 13/6

When there is division in an equaiton, we can swap the nominator and denominator of the fraction amd change it to multiplication:

=26/5 × 6/13
= (13 x 2)/5 x 6/(13 x 1)

Factorize 26 and 13,we get:

=2/5 x 6/1
= 12/5 ft or 2.4 ft

Therefore the answer is 12/5ft or 2.4ft.

Hope it helps!
