15^2+x^2=17^2
225+x^2=289
289-225=64
x^2=64
x=8

Hypotneuse² = leg²+leg²

17² = x²+15²

x² = 289-225

x = √64

x = 8

Answer:

<u>Picture 1</u>

Your choice C is correct

  • (x - (-2))² + (y - 9)² = 5² ⇒
  • (x + 2)² + (y - 9)² = 25

<u>Picture 2</u>

  • (x + 5)² + (y - 6)² = 36
  • (x - (-5))² + (y - 6)² = 6²
  • r = 6, (h, k) = (-5, 6)

Correct choice is C

<u>Picture 3</u>

  • (x + 5)² + (y + 2)² = 81
  • (x - (-5))² + (y - (-2))² = 9²
  • r = 9, (h, k) = (-5, -2)

Correct choice is C

Given that tangent theta = negative 1, what is the value of secant theta, for StartFraction 3 pi Over 2 EndFraction less-than th
vivado [14]

The value of tangent theta is equal to the negative 1.  At this value the value of secant theta is \sqrt{2}.

<h3>What is tangent theta?</h3>

The tangent theta in a triangle is the ratio of sine theta and cos theta. It can be written as,

\rm tan\theta=\dfrac{sin \theta}{cos \theta}

Given information-

The value of tangent theta is equal to the negative 1.

\tan \theta=-1

The tangent theta in a triangle is the ratio of sine theta and cos theta. It can be written as,

\rm tan\theta=\dfrac{sin \theta}{cos \theta}

The value of tangent theta is equal to the negative 1. Thus put the value in above expression as,

\rm -1=\dfrac{sin \theta}{cos \theta}\\

Simplify it further as,

\rm -cos \theta=sin \theta

When the value of cosine and sine theta is equal, then the angle exist in 4th quadrant with the value of \dfrac{7\pi}{4}. Which extent to the \sqrt{2}/2 for the cosine function.

In the trigonometry cosine theta is the reciprocal of the secant theta. Thus,

\rm \dfrac{1}{sec\theta}=\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\\sec\theta=\sqrt{2}

Thus the value of secant theta is \sqrt{2}
