or it could be cos
θ
=
√

−
3
Explanation:
Since sin
θ
is negative, it can be in the third or fourth quadrant
Drawing your right-angled triangle, place your
θ
in one of three corners. Your longest side will be 3 and the side opposite the
θ
will be -2. Finally, using Pythagoras theorem, your last side should be
√
5
Now, if your triangle was in the third quadrant, you would have
cos
θ
=
√
5
−
3
since cosine is negative in the third quadrant
But if your triangle was in the fourth quadrant, you would have
cos
θ
=
√
5
3
since cosine is positive in the fourth quadrant
5 ft six inches by 2 ft nine inches is 15.125 square ft in total
The shorter piece is 3/10 of the 1.5m long piece of wood.
1.5/10=0.15
0.15*3=0.45
The shorter piece is 0.45m or 45cm long.
Hope this helps :)
The answer is 180 degrees.
A right angle formed at the edge of any circle will always create an arc of 180 degrees. This is true no matter where it is placed and no matter the side lengths.
The greatest common factor is 10
