The answer is B.
Since ΔQRS ~ ΔXYZ, the value of tan(Q) is :
- ∠Q = ∠X
- tan(Q) = tan(X)
- tan(X) = 3/4
- tan(Q) = 3/4
Hi!
Shawna is correct because since it's multiplied to the 5-n you have to do the opposite which is division.
Dexter is also correct because after distributing you can continue solving, there is nothing wrong with that.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
the function y=5x+5
plug in the hours 4.5 for x
y=5(4.5)+5
=27.5kilometers
Hello there!
The only thing we have to do here is remember our trigonometric functions!
sin=y/r
cos=x/r
tan=y/x
sec=r/x
csc=r/y
cot=x/y
Knowing that tanᎾ=15/8, we know that y=15 and x=8
Now we need to look at the answer choices and see if they are correct.
A. secᎾ=17/8
Since secᎾ=r/x and r=17 and x=8, this is correct.
B. cosᎾ=15/17
Since cosᎾ=x/r and x=8 and r=17, this is wrong.
C. cotᎾ=8/15
Since cotᎾ=x/y and x=8 and y=15, this is also correct!
D. cscᎾ=17/15
Since cscᎾ=r/y and r=17 and y=15, this is right too.
I really hope this helps!
Best wishes :)
