Why is tangent's period 180 degrees?

1 answer:

3 0

In order for tan x = 0, sin x must be = 0
sin x = 0 at 0 degrees and 180 degrees 
so, tan x = 0 at 0, pi 
as for the period being pi, you need to have tan x be negative and positive 
so remember the acronym All students take calculus ( ASTC) for where they are positive. 
tan x is negative in Quadrant II and positive in Quadrant I, since it just repeats after that, the period therefore must be Pi.

Which graph best represents the solution set of 2/3x + y ≤ − 2?

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is D. Easy way to tell, the less than or equal to sign indicates a solid line in the graph. Equal=solid line. Also when you solve for y, the slope of the line (-2/3)is negative, indicating a line sloping downward.

The perimeter of a square is equal to four times the length of a side. Write the direct v variation equation that represents the

sveticcg [70]

Answer: $y=4x$

Step-by-step explanation:

A direct variation equation has the form:

$y=kx$

Where k is a constant.

By definition, we know that the perimeter of the square is the sum of the lengths of its sides or, as all the sides are equal, you can multiply the lenght of any side by 4.

Then, knowing that y is the dependent value and x the independent value and the constant k=4, you can write the following direct variation equation that represents the situation.

$y=4x$
