Hello there!

The only thing we have to do here is remember our trigonometric functions!

sin=y/r
cos=x/r
tan=y/x
sec=r/x
csc=r/y
cot=x/y

Knowing that tanᎾ=15/8, we know that y=15 and x=8


Now we need to look at the answer choices and see if they are correct.

A. secᎾ=17/8
Since secᎾ=r/x and r=17 and x=8, this is correct.

B. cosᎾ=15/17
Since cosᎾ=x/r and x=8 and r=17, this is wrong.

C. cotᎾ=8/15
Since cotᎾ=x/y and x=8 and y=15, this is also correct!

D. cscᎾ=17/15
Since cscᎾ=r/y and r=17 and y=15, this is right too.

I really hope this helps!
Best wishes :)

A bike ramp is shown in the figure. What is theta, the bike ramp's angle of elevation? Round your answer to the nearest degree.
AysviL [449]

Answer:

Ф = 14° ⇒ to the nearest degree

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the trigonometry functions

- Assume that we have a right triangle ABC

∵ m∠B = 90°

∴ AC is the hypotenuse ⇒ opposite to the right angle

∴ AB and BC are the legs of the right angles

- Let angle ACB called Ф

∵ sinФ = opposite/hypotenuse

∴ sinФ = AB/AC

∵ cosФ = adjacent/hypotenuse

∴ cosФ = BC/AC

∵ tanФ = opposite/adjacent

∴ tanФ = AB/BC

* Now lets solve the problem

- We will consider the bike ramp is the ΔABC

∵ AB = 1.5 feet

∵ ∠ACB is Ф

∵ The length of the ramp is the hypotenuse

∴ AC = 6 feet

- W have the length of the opposite to Ф and the hypotenuse

∴ We will chose the sin function

∵ sinФ = AB/AC

∴ sinФ = 1.5/6 ⇒ use the inverse of sin to find Ф

∴ Ф = sin^-1 (1.5/6) = 14.47 ≅ 14° ⇒ to the nearest degree

<h2>Answer:38.33 Kg</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

If mKg of mass is placed on spring with spring constant k,

mg=kx

where g is universal gravitational constant

x is the displacement in the spring.

In case 1:

25g=k(0.15)\\k=\frac{25g}{0.15}

In case 2:

mg=k(0.23)

Using  result from case 1,

mg=\frac{25g}{0.15}\times 0.23

m=38.33Kg
