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} }

<u>Second Method</u>

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

We know that we have to m<span>ake a down payment of $1500 and finance the rest of $20000 at a 1.9% interest rate, making equal monthly payments for 5 years. Our first step to solve this problem would be to convert 5 years into months. 

1 year = 12 months 

12 * 5 = 60 months 

Therefore, in 5 years there are 60 months. 

Now lets solve this problem step by step. 

Subtract the down payment from $20,000

</span>$20000-$1500=$18500

Multiply the remaining number by the interest rate. 

$18500 *1.9 = $35150 

Divide 35150 by number of months in 5 years (60)

$35150 / 60 = $585 

<span>Therefore, you have to pay $585 per month.</span>

Investment: cost of her education + salary as sales clerk during two years

Investment = 18,000 (2) + 20,000 = 36,000 + 20,000 = 56,000

Time to recover investment = 56,000/35,000 = 1.6

In less than two years, after she starts to work Niah will have recoverd her investment.
