If PR=40, what are PQ and RQ

Mathematics

PR = PQ + QR = 40

Substitute PR and QR into the equation above

40 = 5x - 2 + x + 12

Combine like terms

40 = 6x + 10

Subtract 10 from both sides

30 = 6x

Divide both sides by 6

5 = x

PQ = 5x - 2= 5(5) - 2 = 23

Remember, PR = PQ + QR

40 = 23 + QR

Subtract 23 from both sides.

17 = QR

PQ = 23

If 4sintheta = -3, solve for theta given 0°>_theta>_360°
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

311.41 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

If 4 sin Ф = -3 and Ф is between 0 and 360 degrees, then we conclude that Ф must be either in Quadrant III or Quadrant IV (because the sine is negative).

Let's assume we're in Quadrant IV.  Then sin Ф = opp / hyp = -3/4; that is, the opp side is negative and has length 3, and the hypo is positive 4.

According to the Pythagorean Theorem,  (-3)^2 + x^2 = 4^2, or,

x^2 = 16 - 9 = 7.

Then x is either √7 or -√7.

To find the angle Ф, use the inverse sine function:

Ф = arcsin (-3/4).  Using a calculator we get the angle -40.59 degrees, which corresponds to (360 degrees - 40.59 degrees), or 311.41 degrees.  We can check this by finding the sine of 311.41 degrees; the result is -0.75, which matches "If 4sintheta = -3."
