Answer: option C

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram of the triangle is shown in the attached photo. The triangle is a right angle triangle ABC

Assuming the given angle is #,

Recalling the trigonometric ratio,

tan # = opposite / adjacent

If tan # = 4, it means

opposite / adjacent = 4/1

Therefore, opposite = 4 and adjacent = 1

Applying Pythagoras theorem,

Hypotenuse^2 = opposite ^2 + adjacent ^2

Hypotenuse = AC

Opposite = 4

Adjacent = 1

AC^2 = 4^2 + 1^2 = 17

AC = ± √17

To determine cos #, we would apply another trigonometric ratio,

Cos# = adjacent /hypotenuse

Cos# = 1/±√17

Cos # =-1 /√17 or 1/√17

They are abstract "word" problems, offered for the purpose of giving the
student of high school mathematics valuable practice in the application
and manipulation of the concept of "percent". 

Often, some time spent in solving practice-examples such as these can
lead to the phenomenon known as "learning", whereby the student comes
to know, understand, and possess competence in a topic where he or she
was previously ignorant and incompetent. 

It is important to realize that the practice is the vital component in the process,
whereas the answers alone have no value at all.

The sum of the angle measures of any triangle is 180 degrees. suppose that one angle in a triangle has a degree measure of −3x5
salantis [7]
If we let m₁, m₂, and m₃ be the measures of the angles of the triangle, the equation that would relate them to each other is,

     m₁ + m₂ + m₃ = 180

Given the measures of the first two angles, the measure of the third angle is calculated through the equation,

    m₃ = 180 - (m₁ + m₂)

Substituting the known expressions,

    m₃ = 180 - (-3x⁵ + 2x²)

Simplifying,

<em>    m₃ = 180 + 3x⁵ - 2x²</em>

Whats the difference between "6 + A" and "6 x A"
Nata [24]

Answer:

To determine what is the difference between "6 + A" and "6 x A", the logic of the proposed mathematical operations must be explained:

In "6 + A", the value A is added to the initial value 6. Thus, for example, if A were worth 10, to the initial value 6 10 units are added, with which the final value is 16.

In contrast, in "6 x A", the initial value 6 is multiplied by as many times as the value A indicates. Therefore, continuing with the value of A as 10, in this case 6 would be multiplied by 10 times, giving a final value of 60.
