The answer is (3, 0) for The second endpoint.

Let's start by calling the known endpoint L and the unknown K. We'll call the midpoint M. In order to find this, we must first note that to find a midpoint we need to take the average of the endpoints. To do this we add them together and then divide by 2. So, using that, we can write a formula and solve for each part of the k coordinates. We'll start with just x values.

(Kx + Lx)/2 = Mx

(Kx + 7)/2 = 5

Kx + 7 = 10

Kx = 3

And now we do the same thing for y values

(Ky + Ly)/2 = My

(Ky + -6)/2 = -3

Ky + -6 = -6

Ky = 0

This gives us the final point of (3, 0)

Answer:

a) a + c = 90

d) a + b + c + 30 = 180

e) The angles marked a and b are vertical

f) The angles marked a and c are complementary.

Step-by-step explanation:

A complementary angle is and angle that has a sum of 90 degrees. A vertical angle is 2 angles facing each other, that are completely identical. 180 degrees is the sum of a strait line. 90 degrees is a right angle.

Hope this helps! Have a wonderful rest of your day!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the question is asking for the difference between the two values, therfore, you should subtract the smaller value from the larger value

while A is technically the same equation, when finding a value, you want all the constants to be on 1 side of the equation while the variable is on the other side

Please help with any of this Im stuck and having trouble with pre calc is it basic triogmetric identities using quotient and rec

How I was taught all of these problems is in terms of r, x, and y. Where sin = y/r, cos = x/r, tan = y/x, csc = r/y, sec = r/x, cot = x/y. That is how I will designate all of the specific pieces in each problem.

Let's start with sin here. $\frac{2\sqrt{5}}{5} = \frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}$ Therefore, because sin is y/r, r = $\sqrt{5}$ and y = +2. Moving over to cot, which is x/y, x = -1, and y = 2. We know y has to be positive because it is positive in our given value of sin. Now, to find cos, we have to do x/r.

cos = $\frac{-1}{\sqrt{5}} = \frac{-\sqrt{5}}{5}$

Let's start with secant here. Secant is r/x, where r (the length value/hypotenuse) cannot be negative. So, r = 9 and x = -7. Moving over to tan, x must still equal -7, and y = $4\sqrt{2}$ . Now, to find csc, we have to do r/y.

csc = $\frac{9}{4\sqrt{2}} = \frac{9\sqrt{2}}{8}$

The pythagorean identities are

sin^2 + cos^2 = 1,

1 + cot^2 = csc^2,

tan^2 + 1 = sec^2.

Let's take a look at the information given here. We know that cos = -3/4, and sin (the y value), must be greater than 0. To find sin, we can use the first pythagorean identity.

sin^2 + (-3/4)^2 = 1

sin^2 + 9/16 = 1

sin^2 = 7/16

sin = $\sqrt{7/16}$ = $\frac{\sqrt{7}}{4}$

Now to find tan using a pythagorean identity, we'll first need to find sec. sec is the inverse/reciprocal of cos, so therefore sec = -4/3. Now, we can use the third trigonometric identity to find tan, just as we did for sin. And, since we know that our y value is positive, and our x value is negative, tan will be negative.

tan^2 + 1 = (-4/3)^2

tan^2 + 1 = 16/9

tan^2 = 7/9

tan = - $\sqrt{7/9} = \frac{-\sqrt{7}}{3}$

Let's take a look at the information given here. If we know that csc is negative, then our y value must also be negative (r will never be negative). So, if cot must be positive, then our x value must also be negative (a negative divided by a negative makes a positive). Let's use the second pythagorean identity to solve for cot.

1 + cot^2 = $(\frac{-\sqrt{6}}{2})^{2}$

1 + cot^2 = 6/4

cot^2 = 2/4

cot = $\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$

tan = $\sqrt{2}$

Next, we can use the third trigonometric identity to solve for sec. Remember that we can get tan from cot, and cos from sec. And, from what we determined in the beginning, sec/cos will be negative.

$(\frac{2}{\sqrt{2}})^2$ + 1 = sec^2
