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

Mathematics

son4ous [18]3 years ago

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.

Determine whether the given value is a statistic or a parameter. A sample of seniors is selected and it is found that 65% own a
sp2606 [1]

Answer: A. Statistic because the value is a numerical measurement describing a characteristic of a sample.

Step-by-step explanation: Statistic are used to describe values obtained from a data sample which are regarded as a subset of the data belonging to an entire population. Therefore, in statistical parlance, numerical measurement obtained from such dataset are called statistic. On the other hand, if data from which a numerical derivation was made is a population which consists of the entire set of observations belonging to a particular group of interest, then the numerical values obtained are referred to as a parameter.
