Find cos theta if sin theta=3/4 and theta lies in quadrant 2

1 answer:

7 0

By the Pythagorean theorem, the missing side is -sqrt7. The definition of sin is side opposite over hypotenuse, so go into Q2 and make an angle and label the side opposite the angle with a 3 and the hypotenuse a 4. The other leg is -sqrt7 cuz x is negative in Q2. The cosine of an angle is the side adjacent over the hypotenuse, so the cos then is -sqrt7/4

What is 5(y-2)-2=2(y+1)-5? Solve for y and show your work please.

Inessa [10]

Answer:

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start with the left side of the equation.

5(y-2)-2= 2(y+1)-5

5y-10-2= 2(y+1)-5

Now let's solve the right side

5y-10-2= 2y+2-5

5y-12= 2y-3

-2y -2y

3y-12=-3

+12 +12

3y = 9

3y/3 = 9/3

y = 3

hope this helps!

Rewrite expression of 72t+8

The only thing I can think of to rewrite this is either 8+72t or changing the variable to a different letter. The expression is already in its simplest form.
