Answer:

\displaystyle cos\theta=\frac{36}{164}=\frac{9}{41}

\displaystyle tan\theta=\frac{160}{36}=\frac{40}{9}

\displaystyle csc\theta=\frac{164}{160}=\frac{41}{40}

\displaystyle sec\theta=\frac{164}{36}=\frac{41}{9}

\displaystyle cot\theta=\frac{36}{160}=\frac{9}{40}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Trigonometric ratios in a Right Triangle</u>

Let ABC a right triangle with the right angle (90°) in A. The longest length is called the hypotenuse and is the side opposite to A. The other sides are called legs and are shorter than the hypotenuse.

Some trigonometric relations are defined in a right triangle. Being \theta one of the angles other than the right angle, h the hypotenuse, x the side opposite to \theta and y the side adjacent to \theta, then

\displaystyle sin\theta=\frac{x}{h}

\displaystyle cos\theta=\frac{y}{h}

\displaystyle tan\theta=\frac{x}{y}

\displaystyle csc\theta=\frac{h}{x}

\displaystyle sec\theta=\frac{h}{y}

\displaystyle cot\theta=\frac{y}{x}

We are given the values of h=164 and x=160, let's find y

y=\sqrt{164^2-160^2}=36

Now we compute the rest of the ratios

\displaystyle cos\theta=\frac{36}{164}=\frac{9}{41}

\displaystyle tan\theta=\frac{160}{36}=\frac{40}{9}

\displaystyle csc\theta=\frac{164}{160}=\frac{41}{40}

\displaystyle sec\theta=\frac{164}{36}=\frac{41}{9}

\displaystyle cot\theta=\frac{36}{160}=\frac{9}{40}

I need help with #6 <br> Can u also show work ?
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

the answer is a when you do the math while b and c and d all keep going bit a stops and can no loneger be changed

Step-by-step explanation:

1. distribute 2 to what is in the parentheses ( you should get x over 3 +10)

2. combine both x over 3

cancel out the x and get 6

your answer wpuld be 6 = 10

A 12-meter ladder leans against a building forming a 30° angle with the building.
KatRina [158]

Answer:

will show you two (2) ways to solve this problem.

A diagram is needed to see what is going on....

 

Without loss of generality (WLOG)

The wall is on the right. The ladder leans against the wall

with a POSITIVE slope, from SW to NE (quadrant 3 to quadrant 1).

The measure from the bottom of the ladder to the wall is 6.

 

 

Option 1:

 

The ladder, ground and wall form a right triangle.

 

The hypotenuse (ladder) is 14 feet.

 

 The bottom of the ladder is 6 feet from the wall,

  so the base of this right triangle is 6 feet.

 

The top of the ladder to the ground represents

the missing leg of the right triangle.

 

The pythagorean theorem applies, which says

 6^2 + h^2 = 14^2   where h is the height

                                 of the top of the ladder to the ground

 

36 + h^2 = 196

 

 h^2 = 196 - 36

 

h^2  = 160

 

h = sqrt(160)

 

   = sqrt(16 * 10)

 

    = sqrt(16)* sqrt(10)

 

    = 4*sqrt(10) <--- exact answer

 

    = 4 * 3.16227766016838....

 

     = 12.64911....

 

    12.65 <--- rounded to 2 digits as directed

 

----------------------------------------------

Option #2: using trig

 

With respect to the angle formed by the bottom of the

ladder with the ground

  cos T = 6/14 = 3/7  

 T = inverse-cosine(3/7) = 64.623006647 degrees

 

 sin(64.623006647) = h/14

 

 h = 14*sin(64.62300647) = 12.6491106 <--- same answer                        

hope this helps
