Find the exact value of cos(sin^-1(-5/13))

Mathematics

bearing in mind that the hypotenuse is never negative, since it's just a distance unit, so if an angle has a sine ratio of -(5/13) the negative must be the numerator, namely -5/13.

\bf cos\left[ sin^{-1}\left( -\cfrac{5}{13} \right) \right] \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{then we can say that}~\hfill }{sin^{-1}\left( -\cfrac{5}{13} \right)\implies \theta }\qquad \qquad \stackrel{\textit{therefore then}~\hfill }{sin(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{-5}}{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{13}}}\impliedby \textit{let's find the \underline{adjacent}}

\bf \textit{using the pythagorean theorem} \\\\ c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \pm\sqrt{c^2-b^2}=a \qquad \begin{cases} c=hypotenuse\\ a=adjacent\\ b=opposite\\ \end{cases} \\\\\\ \pm\sqrt{13^2-(-5)^2}=a\implies \pm\sqrt{144}=a\implies \pm 12=a \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ cos\left[ sin^{-1}\left( -\cfrac{5}{13} \right) \right]\implies cos(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{adjacent}{\pm 12}}{13}

le's bear in mind that the sine is negative on both the III and IV Quadrants, so both angles are feasible for this sine and therefore, for the III Quadrant we'd have a negative cosine, and for the IV Quadrant we'd have a positive cosine.

If you are dealt 5 cards at random from a standard deck of playing cards, what is the probability that at most 4 of them are spa
alexira [117]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

No of ways in which 5 cards are chosen is N=^{52}C_5

No of ways in which at most  4 cards are spades N_0=Total ways-5 spades

=^{52}C_5-^{13}C_5

Probability that at most 4 cards are spade P=\frac{N_0}{N}

P=\frac{^{52}C_5-^{13}C_5}{^{52}C_5}

P=\frac{2598960-1287}{2598960}

P=\frac{2597673}{2598960}=0.9995

Which of the following is the solution to the following system of inequalities?
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

for example point (2,0) is one of the solutions.

=> x + 2y <4

2+ 2(0) = 2 => 2< 4 (true)

=> 3x – y > 2

3(2)-0= 6 => 6>2 (true)

so, the option D is the correct one
