Answer:

\text{tan}(\theta)=\frac{\sqrt{119}}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Sandra knows the Pythagorean identity \text{sin}^2(\theta)+\text{cos}^2(\theta)=1. She is told that 0\leq \theta\leq \frac{\pi}{2} and \text{cos}(\theta)=\frac{5}{12}.

First of all, we will find value of sine theta using the given identity.

\text{sin}^2(\theta)+\text{cos}^2(\theta)=1

\text{sin}^2(\theta)+(\frac{5}{12})^2=1

\text{sin}^2(\theta)+\frac{25}{144}=1

\text{sin}^2(\theta)+\frac{25}{144}-\frac{25}{144}=1-\frac{25}{144}

\text{sin}^2(\theta)=\frac{144-25}{144}

\text{sin}^2(\theta)=\frac{119}{144}

\text{sin}(\theta)=\sqrt{\frac{119}{144}}

\text{sin}(\theta)=\frac{\sqrt{119}}{12}  

\text{tan}(\theta)=\frac{\text{sin}(\theta)}{\text{cos}(\theta)}

\text{tan}(\theta)=\frac{\frac{\sqrt{119}}{12}}{\frac{5}{12}}

\text{tan}(\theta)=\frac{\sqrt{119}*12}{5*12}=\frac{\sqrt{119}}{5}

Therefore, \text{tan}(\theta)=\frac{\sqrt{119}}{5}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Graphs of f(x) and g(x) are given

From the given graphs:

Finding g ( f (-3) ):

-----> g ( f (-3) )

-----> g(5)

-----> -9

so,

g ( f (-3) ) = -9

Point Tis on line segment SU. Given TU = 4x + 1, SU = 8, and ST = 3x,
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

If point T is on the line segment SU, then ST + TU = SU.

Given

TU = 4x + 1

SU = 8

ST =  3x

To get TU, we need to get the value of x first. To get x, we will substitute the given parameters into the formula;

3x+4x+1 = 8

7x+1 = 8

subtract 1 from both sides

7x+1-1 = 8-1

7x = 7

divide both sides by 7

7x/7 = 7/7

x = 1

Substitute x = 1 into the length TU

Since TU = 4x+1

TU = 4(1)+1

TU = 5

Hence the numerical length of TU is 5 units
