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

Mathematics

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."

Someone please help me will give brainliest!!!!!

I believe the fastest way to solve this problem is to take any two of the given points and to find the slope and y-intercept of the line connecting those two points.  

Let's choose the 2 given points (-3,16) and (-1,12).
Going from the first point to the second, the increase in x is 2 and the increase in y is actually a decrease:  -4.  Thus, the slope of the line connecting these two points is m = -4/2, or m = -2.

Now use the slope-intercept formula to find the y-intercept, b.

One point on the line is (-3,16), and the slope is m = -2.

Thus, the slope-intercept formula y = mx + b becomes 16 = -2(-3) + b.
Here, b comes out to 10.

So now we have the slope and the y-intercept.  Write the equation:

y = mx + b becomes y=-2x+10.  Which of the four given answer choices is the correct one?

In ΔNOP, the measure of ∠P=90°, the measure of ∠N=59°, and PN = 7.4 feet. Find the length of OP to the nearest tenth of a foot.
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

12.3 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we are given that \triangle NOP is an right angled triangle.

\angle P = 90 ^\circ \\\angle N = 59 ^\circ\\Side\ PN = 7.4 \text{ feet}

And we have to find out the value of side OP to the nearest tenth of a foot by rounding off the value as seen in the attached figure as well.

By using Trigonometric functions in a right angled \triangle, we know that:

tan \theta = \frac{Perpendicular}{Base}

Here, \theta is \angle N, Perpendicular is side <em>OP</em> and Base is side <em>PN</em>.

So, tan 59^\circ = \frac{OP}{PN}

\Rightarrow OP = PN \times tan59^\circ

Putting the values of <em>PN </em>and tan59^\circ.

OP = 1.66 \times 7.4\\\Rightarrow OP = 12.3 ft

Hence, the value of <em>OP </em>is 12.3\ feet.
