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.

Is it enough to plot two points to see a pattern for a graph ? Explain.
devlian [24]
No, the least amount of points you can do on a graph to see the pattern is 3 because than you can get a better line for your graph to see what kind of pattern your graph is.

What is the y intercept of a line that passes through (1,-7) and (5,-25). How do I find it.
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

y- intercept = - 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, - 7) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5, - 25)

m = \frac{-25+7}{5-1} = \frac{-18}{4} = - 4.5 , then

y = - 4.5x + c

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the equation

Using (1, - 7), then

- 7 = - 4.5 + c ⇒ c = - 7 + 4.5 = - 2.5

y- intercept c = - 2.5
