First way
arcsin(1/4) means that 1/4 sin of the angle.

sin(α)=1/4
sin²α+cos²α=1
(1/4)²+cos²α=1
cos²α=1-1/16 =15/16
cosα=+/-(√15)/4

<span>Second way
</span>
sin(α)=1/4 =opposite leg/hipotenuse
cos(α)=adjacent leg/hypothenuse
adjacent leg =√(hypotenuse²- Opposite²)=√(16-1)=√15
cosα=+/-√15/4

For one value of sinα, possible 2 values of cosα.

Focus on number two ok
melomori [17]
Its simple, convert 1 and 2/3 into a fraction which is 5/3 and use KCF which is Keep Change and Flip,

How this works is that you keep the first fraction, then change the division sign to a multiplication sign (Change = change the sign into its oppisite) then flip the other fraction from being 5/3 into 3/5. And then you multiply top times top and bottom times bottom. After that you simplify if you can, Hope this helped!

Question:

In a neighbourhood pet show, each of the animals entered is equally likely to win. if there are 7 dogs, 6 cats, 3 birds, and 2 gerbils entered, what is the probability that a bird will win the top prize?

Answer:

Probability that a bird will win the top prize is 0.167

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The number of  dogs  = 7

The number of  cats = 6

The number of  birds  = 3

The number of gerbils = 2

To Find:

Probability that a bird will win the top prize = ?

Solution:

Let us first find the total number of  pets .

The Total number of pets = 7 + 6 + 3  + 2 =  18

Now the probability of  a bird will win the top prize is

=> \frac{\text {Number of birds}}{\text{ Total number of pets}}

=>\frac{3}{18}

=> \frac{1}{6}

=>0.167
