Answer: option 3 is the correct answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us look at the various trigonometric ratios
Sin Ф = opposite side/ hypotenuse
Cos Ф = adjacent side / hypotenuse
Tan Ф = opposite side / adjacent side
Therefore, tan Ф = sin Ф / cos Ф
This means that if cos Ф=-8/17 and sin Ф is negative, then the hypotenuse is negative
To determine the adjacent side, we will apply Pythagoras theorem
Hypotenuse ^2 = opposite ^2 + adjacent ^2
-17^2 = 8^2 + adjacent^2
adjacent^2 = 289 - 64 = 225
adjacent = √225 = 15
tan Ф = 8/15
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite the equation as 4x - 6 = 2
Move all terms not containing x to the right side of the equation:
Add 6 to both sides of the equation.
4x = 2 + 6
Add 2 and 6.
4x = 8
Divide each term by 4 and simplify.
Divide each term in 4x = 8 by 4.
Reduce the expression by cancelling the common factors.
Divide 8 by 4.
x = 2
