Answer:

sec(\theta)=\frac{2}{\sqrt{2} }=\sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by noticing that the angle \theta is on the 4th quadrant (between \frac{3\pi}{2} and 2\pi. Recall then that in this quadrant the functions tangent and cosine are positive, while the function sine is negative in value. This is important to remember given the fact that tangent of an angle is defined as the quotient of the sine function at that angle divided by the cosine of the same angle:

tan(\theta)=\frac{sin(\theta)}{cos(\theta)}

Now, let's use the information that the tangent of the angle in question equals "-1", and understand what that angle could be:

tan(\theta)=\frac{sin(\theta)}{cos(\theta)}\\-1=\frac{sin(\theta)}{cos(\theta)}\\-cos(\theta)=sin(\theta)

The particular special angle that satisfies this (the magnitude of sine and cosine the same) in the 4th quadrant, is the angle \frac{7\pi}{4}

which renders for the cosine function the value \frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}.

Now, since we are asked to find the value of the secant of this angle, we need to remember the expression for the secant function in terms of other trig functions: sec(\theta)=\frac{1}{cos(\theta)}

Therefore the value of the secant of this angle would be the reciprocal of the cosine of the angle, that is: sec(\theta)=\frac{2}{\sqrt{2} }=\sqrt{2}

2 If m please help me
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

x = 18

m∠HCB = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of angle FBC is 8x and the measure of angle HCB is 2x. If you add the measures of both angles it will equal to 180 degrees. This can be represented in an equation:

8x + 2x = 180

10x = 180

Divide both sides of the equation by 10 to isolate the x:

10x/10 = 180/10

x = 18

Now that we know the value of x, we can find the measure of angle HCB:

2x

2(18)

36

The measure of angle HCB is 36.

I hope this helps :)

Consider the expression: (x + y + 3) × (y + 1).
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

1 and 2) After multiplying (x+y+3)(y+1) we have

  • xy+x+y^2+4y+3

Which is an equivalent expression after applying the distributive property.

As we can see we have an one of the variables squared,  so we obtain an Parabolic Cillinder

The answer can be found by squaring 6 which gives you 36 minus 30 because negative 5 times 6 is negative 30 so it would be 36-30-3 which is 3
