\bf sin(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{hypotenuse}&#10;\qquad \qquad &#10;% cosine&#10;cos(\theta)=\cfrac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}&#10;\\ \quad \\&#10;% tangent&#10;tan(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{adjacent}&#10;\qquad \qquad &#10;% secant&#10;sec(\theta)=\cfrac{hypotenuse}{adjacent}\\\\&#10;-----------------------------\\\\&#10;sec(\theta)=\cfrac{6}{5}\cfrac{\leftarrow hypotenuse}{\leftarrow adjacent}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;

\bf \textit{so.. using the pythagorean theorem, we get}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \pm \sqrt{c^2-a^2}=b\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;c=hypotenuse\\&#10;a=adjacent\\&#10;b=opposite&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{that simply means that }\pm \sqrt{6^2-5^2}=b\implies \pm \sqrt{11}=b

but.. which is it, the positive or negative version of "b"?  well.... we know tangent is < 0, that's another way of saying, tangent is negative

now.. .tangent is opposite over adjacent... for tangent to be negative, the sign of those two must differ

so.. where does that happens? well, it happens on the 2nd and 4th quadrants, so..... which quadrant then?

well, we know the hypotenuse is always positive, is just the radius anyway, and in this case is 6
but the adjacent is positive 5, that means the adjacent is positive, thus the opposite must be negative, and that happens on the 4th quadrant

so that means \bf -\sqrt{11}=b

so... now, you have all three sides, the hypotenuse, the adjacent, and the opposite, so, just fill those in, in the ratios for cosine, sine and tangent

Answer:

1 . 16

2 . 4

3 . 64

4 . -4

The fourth one goes first and then the second one and then the first one and then the third one.

A) 2.5x + 1.25 &lt; 3.75 <br>b)5.12 2.4x + 0.3<br>help!!!<br><br>​
Sauron [17]

Answer:

a) 1

b)I would like to help u but i don't understand the question I think something is missing there plus sign or minus sign sry

Step-by-step explanation:

2.5x + 1.25 < 3.75

2.5x < 3.75 - 1.25

2.5x < 2.5

\frac{2.5x}{2.5}  =  \frac{2.5}{2.5}

x = 1

I hope u like it ‍❤️‍‍❤️‍

For any question comment me

Really sorry for the second question

g What is the probability of being dealt exactly three of a kind (like three kings or three 7’s, etc.) in a five card hand from
Elena L [17]

Answer: 0.02257

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Total cards in a deck = 52

Number of ways to select any 5 cards : ^{52}C_5

Since , there are total 13 kinds of card (includes Numbers from 2 to 9 and Ace , king, queen and jack).

Of each kind , there are 4 cards.

Number of ways to select three cards in a five card hand of a single kind : ^{4}C_3\times^{48}C_2

Number of ways to select three cards in a five card hand of a exactly three of a kind : 13\times^{4}C_3\times^{48}C_2

Now , the required probability = \dfrac{13\times^{4}C_3\times^{48}C_2}{^{52}C_5}

=\dfrac{13\times4\times\dfrac{48!}{2!46!}}{\dfrac{52!}{5!47!}}\\\\\\=\dfrac{58656}{2598960}

=0.022569027611\approx0.02257

∴ The probability of being dealt exactly three of a kind (like three kings or three 7’s, etc.) in a five card hand from a deck of 52 cards= 0.02257
