If the sine of an acute angle is 3/5, what is the cosine of that angle?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Korvikt [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The cosine of the angle is 4/5.

Step-by-step explanation:

An acute angle is between 0º and 90º, in the first quadrant of the trigonometric circle, in which both the sine and the cosine are positive values.

For each angle \alpha, we have that:

\sin^{2}{\alpha} + \cos^{2}{\alpha} = 1

We have that:

\sin{\alpha} = \frac{3}{5}

So

\sin^{2}{\alpha} + \cos^{2}{\alpha} = 1

(\frac{3}{5})^{2} + \cos^{2}{\alpha} = 1

\cos^{2}{\alpha} = \frac{16}{25}

\cos{\alpha} = \frac{4}{5}

The cosine of the angle is 4/5.

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

All of the sides are the same so every angle is 17x-8.

Every triangle adds up to 180 degrees.

3(17x-8)=180

51x-24=180

    +24  +24

51x=204

 x= 4

Write the following using algebraic notation, using the letter x for any unknown numbers:
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

\dfrac{x+7}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given statement is "I think of a number, add seven then divide by five".

Let the unknown number be x.

Now, add 7 to the number = x+7

If we divided them by 5, \dfrac{x+7}{5}.

So, the required algebraic notation is  \dfrac{x+7}{5}.

Plz help wit number 5 will mark Brainiest
Nana76 [90]
The function is y=2x
this means that the solutions will have the form (x, y)=(x,2x).
For example: (0,0),(1,2),(2,4),(3,6) are solutions.
The first answer choice satisfies the above conditions.
The second answer choice contains (2,2), and (2,6), both of which do not satisfy the (x,2x) condition, so it's not correct.
The third answer choice contains (4,2), which again does not satisfy (x,2x), so not the right answer.
