so 2.5cm=1k
so 12.5cm=5k
Part B

PART A. Answer: 12.5 cm. Explanation. For every 2 kilometers, there are 5 centimeters. 5 kilometers is 2.5 times more than 2 kilometers. So you multiply 5 centimeters by 2.5 and that is the answer.

PART B Answer: .8 km. Explanation. If you divide 5cm by 2, you get 2.5. So divide 2km by 2.5 and that is how you get .8.

(-2/3, sqrt5/3) is a point on a unit circle. Find the cosine, cosecant, and sine of the angle.

Nana76 [90]

Look at the picture.

$\csc\theta=\dfrac{1}{\sin\theta}=\dfrac{1}{\frac{y}{r}}=\dfrac{r}{y}$

We have the right triangle x, y and r. From the Pythagorean theorem we have:

$r^2=x^2+y^2\to r=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}$

We have the point

$\left(-\dfrac{2}{3};\ \dfrac{\sqrt5}{3}\right)$

Substitute:

$r=\sqrt{\left(-\dfrac{2}{3}\right)^2+\left(\dfrac{\sqrt5}{3}\right)^2}\\\\r=\sqrt{\dfrac{4}{9}+\dfrac{5}{9}}\\\\r=\sqrt{\dfrac{9}{9}}\\\\r=1$

$\csc\theta=\dfrac{1}{\frac{\sqrt5}{3}}=\dfrac{3}{\sqrt5}=\dfrac{3\cdot\sqrt5}{\sqrt5\cdot\sqrt5}=\boxed{\dfrac{3\sqrt5}{5}}$

Solve for x I need help on this question

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

$x\approx7.8$

Step-by-step explanation:

In relation to the given angle, we are given the triangle's opposite side and hypotenuse. Therefore, we use the sine function to set up a proportion and solve for the opposite side:

$sin(\theta)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$

$sin(23^\circ)=\frac{x}{20}$

$20sin(23^\circ)=x$

$x=20sin(23^\circ)$

$x\approx7.8$

Therefore, the length of the opposite side is about 7.8 units
