How do you find the sine and tangent of an angle if you are given the cosine?

Mathematics

Anni [7]3 years ago

Answer:

  • sin = √(1 -cos²)
  • tan = (√(1 -cos²))/cos

Step-by-step explanation:

\displaystyle\sin^2{\theta}+\cos^2{\theta}=1 \qquad\text{Pythagorean identiy}\\\\\sin{\theta}=\sqrt{1-\cos^2{\theta}} \qquad\text{solved for sine}\\\\\tan{\theta}=\frac{\sin{\theta}}{\cos{\theta}}=\frac{\sqrt{1-\cos^2{\theta}}}{\cos{\theta}}

_____

If you draw a triangle with a hypotenuse of 1 and an "adjacent" leg of "cos", then using the Pythagorean theorem, you can see that the "opposite" leg will be √(1-cos²) and the tangent will be (√(1-cos²))/cos. Whether or not you're allowed to draw such a triangle on paper, you can certainly do it in your mind.

The required diameter of dwarf planet is 10^{6}  m.

<h3>What is a statement?</h3>

A statement is a declarative sentence that is either true or false but not both. A statement is sometimes called a proposition. The key is that there must be no ambiguity. To be a statement, a sentence must be true or false, and it cannot be both.

Given:

The given statement is the diameter of 3 planet is

planet A= 10^{9} m= 1000000000m

planet B=10^{7} m=10000000m

planet C= 10^{8} m=100000000m

According to given question we have

A dwarf planet is discovered with a radius is 1/100 times of radius of planet C.

Radius of planet C =100000000/2=  50000000m

Radius of  dwarf planet = 1/100 times of radius of planet C.

Radius of  dwarf planet = 1/100 * 50000000m

Radius of  dwarf planet = 500000 m=5*10^{5} m

Diameter of dwarf planet =2*500000 m=1000000 m=10^{6}  m

Therefore, the required diameter of dwarf planet is 10^{6}  m.
