Answer:

Part 1) sin(\theta)=\frac{2}{3}

Par 2) cos(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}

Part 3) tan(\theta)=-\frac{2\sqrt{5}}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the sin(\theta)

we have

csc(\theta)=\frac{3}{2}

Remember that

csc(\theta)=\frac{1}{sin(\theta)}

therefore

sin(\theta)=\frac{2}{3}

step 2

Find the cos(\theta)

we know that

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

we have

sin(\theta)=\frac{2}{3}

substitute

(\frac{2}{3})^{2} +cos^{2}(\theta)=1

\frac{4}{9} +cos^{2}(\theta)=1

cos^{2}(\theta)=1-\frac{4}{9}

cos^{2}(\theta)=\frac{5}{9}

square root both sides

cos(\theta)=\pm\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}

we have that

cos(\theta) < 0 ---> given problem

so

cos(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}

step 3

Find the tan(\theta)

we know that

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

we have

sin(\theta)=\frac{2}{3}

cos(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}

substitute

tan(\theta)=\frac{2}{3}:-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}=-\frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}

Simplify

tan(\theta)=-\frac{2\sqrt{5}}{5}

If f(x) = x^2 - 3x + 1 over 2, determine f ( 4 ) .
svet-max [94.6K]
F(x)=x^2-3x+1/2, if f(4)
Substitute x with 4, to get
f(x)=x^2-3x+1/2
f(4)=4^2-3(4)+1/2
f(4)=16-12+1/2
f(4)=4+1/2
f(4)=4 1/2 or 4.5. Hope it help!
