Can you guys help me out on this? I'm still learning sign, cosign, and tangent :)
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

\sin d = \frac{4}{7} ; \sin e = \frac{\sqrt{33} }{7}

\cos d = \frac{\sqrt{33} }{7} ; \cos e = \frac{4}{7}

\tan d = \frac{4}{\sqrt{33} } ; \tan e = \frac{\sqrt{33} }{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

For a right angled triangle with one of its angle α (alpha) :-

  • \sin \alpha = \frac{Side \: opposite \: to \: \alpha }{Hypotenuse \: of \: the \: triangle}
  • \cos \alpha  = \frac{Side \: adjacent \: to \: \alpha }{Hypotenuse \: of \: the \: triangle}
  • \tan \alpha  = \frac{Side \: opposite \: to \: \alpha }{Side \: adjacent \: to \: \alpha }

__________________________________________________

According to the question ,

1) When α (alpha) = d

  • \sin d = \frac{4}{7}
  • \cos d = \frac{\sqrt{33} }{7}
  • \tan d = \frac{4}{\sqrt{33} }

2) When α (alpha) = e

  • \sin e = \frac{\sqrt{33} }{7}
  • \cos e = \frac{4}{7}
  • \tan e = \frac{\sqrt{33} }{4}

Which of the following fractions is equivalent to 3/8?<br> A.6/14<br> B.9/24<br> C.4/9<br> D.15/35
Irina-Kira [14]
I'm going to suggest that we take these and "UN-simplify" them.

For each choice, divide the numerator by 3 and the denominator by 8.

Look at this:

A).  6/14

      6 ÷ 3 = 2  
    14 ÷ 8 = 1.875      ===>  2/1.875     not interesting


B).  skip B for just a second

C).  4/9

       4 ÷ 3 = 1.33
       9 ÷ 8 = 1.125        ===>  1.33/1.125    not interesting

D).  15/35

       15 ÷ 3 = 5
       35 ÷ 8 = 4.375    ===>   5/4.375         not interesting

But now look at choice-B:

B).  9/24

       9 ÷ 3 = 3
     24 ÷ 8 = 3        ===>  1/1    interesting !

-- To simplify  9/24, the top and bottom were divided by 3, giving 3/8.

-- To UN-simplify  3/8, the top and bottom were multiplied by 3, giving 9/24.

-- Choice-B  is the one that's equivalent to 3/8.
______________________________________________

OK.  All of that wasn't really necessary.
All you really need to do is take each choice and simplify it.

A).  6/14
       Divide top and bottom by 2  ===>  3/7

B).  9/24
       Divide top and bottom by 3  ===>  3/8 

C).  4/9
       Can't be simplified.  Already in simplest form.

D). 15/35
     Divide top and bottom by 5  ===>  3/7

Evalute the prooblem
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

4 is half of 8 so if s is 4 then the fraction is 8/4. simplified it is 2/1, and that is 2 wholes so 2. the equation rewritten is 9-2 and that = 7.
