Given that tan^2 theta=3/8,what is the value of sec theta?

algol [13]

Answer:

The value of SecФ is $\pm \sqrt{\frac{11}{8}}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as for trigonometric function :

tan²Ф = $\frac{3}{8}$

Or, tanФ = $\sqrt{\frac{3}{8} }$

∵ tanФ = $\frac{Perpendicular}{Base}$

So, $\frac{Perpendicular}{Base}$ = $\sqrt{\frac{3}{8} }$

So, Hypotenuse² = perpendicular² + base²

or, Hypotenuse² = ( $\sqrt{3}$ )² + ( $\sqrt{8}$ )²

Or, Hypotenuse² = 3 + 8 = 11

Or, Hypotenuse = ( $\sqrt{11}$ )

Now SecФ = $\frac{Hypotenuse}{Base}$

or, SecФ = $\frac{\sqrt{11}}{\sqrt{8}}$ = $\sqrt{\frac{11}{8} }$

Second Method

Sec²Ф - tan²Ф = 1

Or, Sec²Ф = 1 + tan²Ф

or, Sec²Ф = 1 + $\frac{3}{8}$

Or, Sec²Ф = $\frac{11}{8}$

Or, SecФ = $\pm \sqrt{\frac{11}{8}}$

Hence The value of SecФ is $\pm \sqrt{\frac{11}{8}}$ . Answer

What is 3 multiplied by 3/8 as a mixed number

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

1 and 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The number 1.125 can be writen using the fraction 1125/1000 which is equal to 9/8 when reduced to lowest terms.

It is also equal to 1 1/8 when writen as a mixed number.

You can use the following approximate value(s) for this number:

1.125 =~ 1 (if you admit a error of -11.111111%)

Polygon CCC has an area of 404040 square units. K 2ennan drew a scaled version of Polygon CCC using a scale factor of \dfrac12 1

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Area of polygon D = 10 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Polygon C has an area of 40 square units.

It is scaled with a scale factor of $\frac{1}2$ to form a new polygon D.

To find:

The area of polygon D = ?

Solution:

When any polygon is scaled to half, then all the sides of new polygon are half of the original polygon.

And the area becomes one-fourth of the original polygon.

Let us consider this by taking examples:

First of all, let us consider a right angled triangle with sides 6, 8 and 10 units.

Area of a right angled triangle is given by:

$A = \dfrac{1}{2} \times Base \times Height\\\Rightarrow A = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 6 \times 8 = 24\ sq\ units$

If scaled with a factor $\frac{1}{2}$ , the sides will be 3, 4 and 5.

New area, A':

$A' =\dfrac{1}{2} \times 3 \times 4 = 6\ sq\ units = \dfrac{1}4\times A$

i.e. Area becomes one fourth.

Let us consider a rectangle now.

Sides be 8 and 10 units.

Area of a rectangle, A = $Length \times Width$ = 8 $\times$ 10 = 80 sq units.

Now after scaling, the sides will be 4 and 5 units.

New Area, A' = 4 $\times$ 5 =20 sq units

So, $\bold{A' = \frac{1}4 \times A}$

Now, we can apply the same in the given question.

$\therefore$ Area of polygon D = $\bold{\frac{1}{4}}$ $\times$ Area of polygon C

Area of polygon D = $\bold{\frac{1}{4}}$ $\times$ 40 = 10 sq units

ANTONII [103]

The cost of each bag of soil is $ 16.25 and the cost of each bag of fertilizer is $ 12.99.

<h3>What is the linear system?</h3>

A linear system is one in which the parameter in the equation has a degree of one. It might have one, two, or even more variables.

Mr. Ellis has started a vegetable garden.

He bought 15 bags of soil and 3 bags of fertilizer for 282.72.

He realized he did not have enough supplies so he bought another 5 bags of soil and 2 bags of fertilizer for 107.23.

Let the cost of each bag of soil be x and the cost of a bag of fertilizer be y.

Then we have the linear equations,

15x + 3y = 282.72

5x + 2y = 107.23

On solving the equations 1 and 2, we have

x = 16.25 and y = 12.99

The cost of each bag of soil is $ 16.25 and the cost of each bag of fertilizer is $ 12.99.
