Answer:

cos\theta=\frac{-2}{\sqrt{85} }

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call <em>r </em>the distance form the origin to the point (-2,9), this distance is related with cos\theta with the expression

x=rcos\theta\\cos\theta=\frac{x}{r}

So, we have to find <em>r </em>with the formula of distance and the given point:

r=\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}=\sqrt{(-2)^{2}+(9)^{2} }\\r=\sqrt{4+81}=\sqrt{85}

Now, replacing on the first relation, we have

cos\theta=\frac{-2}{\sqrt{85} }

Therefore, the answer is

cos\theta=\frac{-2}{\sqrt{85} }

PD: choices were written wrong.

A boy purchased(bought) a party length sandwich 59 in long. He wants to cut it into three pieces so that the middle piece is 6in
Leviafan [203]
Ok so let's start with what we know- the shortest piece is 8 inches so there's one length... then the middle piece is 6 inches longer than the shortest (6+ 8) so the middle piece would be 14 inches long. To find the last piece we can add up the other two pieces we know (14+8) which would be 22 and subtract that from how long the whole sandwich is (59-22) which would be 37 inches long. So in the end he shortest piece would be 8 inches, the middle 14 inches and the longest 37 inches.

if the square roots of the natural numbers from 1 to 200 are calculated what will be the whole numbers​
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

f

Step-by-step explanation:

Green vines attached to the trunk of the tree had wound themselves toward the top of the canopy. Ants used the vine as their private highway, avoiding all the creases and crags of the bark, to freely move at top speed from top to bottom or bottom to top depending on their current chore. At least this was the way it was supposed to be. Something had damaged the vine overnight halfway up the tree leaving a gap in the once pristine ant highway.
