Answer:

  A.  76

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle A is half the difference between the measures of arc DE and BC.

  m∠A = (1/2)(DE -BC)

  20 = (1/2)(116 -BC) . . . . substitute the given values

  40 = 116 -BC . . . . . . . . multiply by 2

  BC = 116 -40 . . . . . . . . add BC -40

  BC = 76

<em>Comment on intersecting secants</em>

When the secants intersect <em>inside</em> the circle, the angle where they cross is half the <em>sum</em> of the intercepted arcs. When they intersect <em>outside</em> the circle (as here), the angle where they meet is half the <em>difference</em> of the intercepted acs.

Sometimes it is easier to remember two related relationships than it is to remember just one of them.

Hello! :)

\large\boxed{\text{70 seconds}}

Use a proportion to find how many seconds are needed to fold 5 shirts.

We are given that he takes 28 seconds to fold 2 shirts:

28 sec : 2 shirts

We are not given the amount of time needed for 5 shirts, which we need to solve:

x seconds : 5 shirts

Express in a fraction:

\frac{2 shirts}{28 seconds}  = \frac{5 shirts}{xseconds}

Cross multiply and simplify:

2 * x = 5 * 28\\\\2x = 140\\\\x = 70 sec

Therefore, he needs 70 seconds to fold 5 shirts.

Let (3,-2) be a point on the terminal side of theta in standard position. Find exact values of the six trigonometric functions o
frez [133]

Answer:

  • sin(θ) = (-2√13)/13
  • cos(θ) = (3√13)/13
  • tan(θ) = -2/3
  • sec(θ) = (√13)/3
  • csc(θ) = (-√13)/2
  • cot(θ) = -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance of the point from the origin is ...

  r = √(3² +(-2)²) = √13

We know that ...

  x = r·cos(θ)   ⇒   cos(θ) = x/r = 3/√13 = (3√13)/13

  y = r·sin(θ)   ⇒   sin(θ) = y/r = -2/√13 = (-2√13)/13

  tan(θ) = sin(θ)/cos(θ) = -2/3

  sec(θ) = 1/cos(θ) = (√13)/3

  csc(θ) = 1/sin(θ) = (-√13)/2

  cot(θ) = 1/tan(θ) = -3/2
