Answer:

102.2 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert the minutes to hours:

101.5/60

= 1.69 hours

Multiply this by 60.4 to find how many miles it covered:

= 102.2 miles

Answer:

√(4/5)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's use reflection property to find tan θ.

tan(-θ) = 1/2

-tan θ = 1/2

tan θ = -1/2

Since tan θ < 0 and sec θ > 0, θ must be in the fourth quadrant.

Now let's look at the problem we need to solve:

sin(5π/2 + θ)

Use angle sum formula:

sin(5π/2) cos θ + sin θ cos(5π/2)

Sine and cosine have periods of 2π, so:

sin(π/2) cos θ + sin θ cos(π/2)

Evaluate:

(1) cos θ + sin θ (0)

cos θ

We need to write this in terms of tan θ. We can use Pythagorean identity:

1 + tan² θ = sec² θ

1 + tan² θ = (1 / cos θ)²

±√(1 + tan² θ) = 1 / cos θ

cos θ = ±1 / √(1 + tan² θ)

Plugging in:

cos θ = ±1 / √(1 + (-1/2)²)

cos θ = ±1 / √(1 + 1/4)

cos θ = ±1 / √(5/4)

cos θ = ±√(4/5)

Since θ is in the fourth quadrant, cos θ > 0. So:

cos θ = √(4/5)

Or, written in proper form:

cos θ = (2√5) / 5

Find the exact value of cot 7pi/4 & sec13pi/6 including quadrant location

Gennadij [26K]

First we will convert those radian angles to degrees, since my mind works better with degrees. Let's work one at a time. First, $\frac{7 \pi }{4} * \frac{180}{ \pi }=315$ . If we start at the positive x-axis and measure out 315 we end up in the 4th quadrant with a reference angle of 45 with the positive x-axis. The side across from the reference angle is -1, the side adjacent to the angle is 1, and the hypotenuse is sqrt2. The cotangent of this angle, then is 1/-1 which is -1. As for the second one, converting radians to degrees gives us that $\frac{13 \pi }{6} * \frac{180}{ \pi } =390$ . Sweeping out that angle has us going around the origin more than once and ending up in the first quadrant with a reference angle of 30° with the positive x-axis. The side across from the angle is 1, the side adjacent to the angle is √3, and the hypotenuse is 2. Therefore, the secant of that angle is 2/√3.
