Why is cos(180°) negative? please help me explain in words:)

1 answer:

5 0

Cos 0 and cos 180 are both = 1 and -1, respectively. The cosine of an angle is the ratio of the two sides of a triangle “adjacent/hypotenuse”. Whether the angle is 0 or 180, the adjacent side and the hypotenuse coincide and so both are of the same length so the ratio of adjacent to hypotenuse will be 1.0.

Betty had 1/3 yard of ribbon. She used 1/2 of it. How many yards of ribbon did she use?

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

b. 1/6 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

When Betty used 1/2 OF the 1/3 yards she has she has to multiple those. It's easier to put it in a sentence in my opinion because then you can see the "of" in the sentence which means to multiply. Hope this helps!

dimulka [17.4K]

In this question, you have to use the Pythagorean theorem. (the formula is in the box, ‘a squared’ and ‘b squared’ is used to find the legs of the triangle, while the ‘c squared’ in the formula is used to find the hypotenuse of the triangle.
