Answer:

1/(sqrt 17), or (sqrt 17) / 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Since cot is negative, where is cot negative? Second and fourth quadrants.

Now we need to fins where cos is negative. That's easy, the second quadrant is what we are looking for. This tells us that sin is positive.

Now, if cot x = -4, that must mean that tan x = -1/4. That would be opposite over adjacent.

Since sin x requires the hypotenuse, find the hypotenuse:

z^2 = 1^2 + 4^2

z^2 = 1 + 16

z = sqrt 17

Since sin is positive, we end up with:

1/(sqrt 17), or (sqrt 17) / 17

I hope this helped.

Alright, lets gets started.

We have given two things, cot Θ= - 4 and cos Θ < 0

Means both cot and cos are negative.

So, the quadrant in which Θ lies , is 2nd.

Because in 2nd quadrant, cos and cot both are negative.

Please refer the diagram attached.

Cot Θ = -4 means tan Θ = - 1/4

Means two sides, opposite = 1

adjacent = -4

We could find hypotenuse by using Pythagorean theorem.

Hypotenuse = sqrt (1^2 + -4^2) = sqrt (1+16)

Hypotenuse = √17

sin Θ = opposite / hypotenuse

sin Θ = 1/√17

Multiply and divide with √17

sin Θ = 1/√17 * √17/√17

sin Θ = √17/17 : Answer

Hope it will help :)

The goal is not only to model the vector with 2 - D and to determine its important parameters, but also to examine the impact in the implementation. That is, Ogden's material parameters, element type, element size, and loading type.

15-29=
Dominik [7]

Answer:

15-29= -14

(I need the explanation most importantly)

14+(-4) - 8 =10-8=2

(Explanation please)

-8.4 - (19.5.) = - 27.9, (just add them to each other and write -, because both have - in front of them)

(Explanation)

-15 + 8 - (-19.7) = - 7+19,7=12,7 (there is + and - so it will became - 7, and at next there is two - which will turn them into +)

(Explanation)

29.45 - 56.009 - 78.2=−104,759 (all you have to is to put them all together, and than make it 29.45 less, writing - in front of them)

(Explanation)

LAST ONE

45.9 - (-9.2) + 5= 45.9+9.2+5=55.1+5=60.1 (because when there is 2 minus next to each other it will became plus)
