Answer: sin2y =240/289 where 0<y <π/2


Step-by-step explanation:

Given  sin(x) = 1/3 and sec(y) = 17/15 , where x and y lie between 0 and π/2.

We now that

cosy = \frac{1}{secy} =\frac{15}{17} \\and\\\text{using identity } sin^2y+cos^2y=1\\\text{we have}\\siny=\sqrt{1-cos^2y}=\sqrt{1-(\frac{15}{17} )^2}=\sqrt{1-\frac{225}{289} }=\sqrt{\frac{64}{289} }=\frac{8}{17} \\\Rightarrow\ siny=\frac{8}{17} \\\text{Now we are using identity sin2A=2sinAcosA we have}\\sin2y=2\cdot\ siny\cdot\ cosy=2\cdot\ \frac{8}{17} \cdot\ \frac{15}{17} =\frac{240}{289}

Whats 9 divide by 6.5
dezoksy [38]
It's an irrational number which means the number never ends and has no pattern in its decimal. So you would round it:
9/6.5= 1.384615384615385
but the answer would be 1.384

Help me with this question please
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer: B. x = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles given are supplementary.

Supplementary angles are any two angles that add to 180 degrees, most commonly seen on one side of a straight line.

As these angles are supplementary, we can solve for x by adding both angles to get 180:

(3x + 15) + 45 = 180\\\\3x + 60 = 180\\\\3x = 120\\\\x = 40

This means that the angle on the left is (3*40) + 15, or 135 degrees, while the angle on the right is 45 degrees. These angles add to 180 degrees.

The correct answer choice is B.
