If we plot that point we find ourselves in QIV.  The distance along the x axis is 4, and the distance down from that point is -3.  If we create a right triangle with that segment, that segment serves as the hypotenuse of the triangle.  We need its measure.  Using Pythagorean's theorem, 4^2+-3^2=c^2 and 16+9=c^2.  We see that c = 5.  We need now to find the secant of that right triangle.  Secant if the co-identity of cosine which is side adjacent over hypotenuse.  That means that secant is the hypotenuse over the side adjacent.  So our secant theta = 5/4

Sec Θ = hyp/adj

If we draw a right triangle in quadrant 4, we learn that the hypotenuse is 5.

In quadrant 4, secant is positive.

sec Θ = 5/4 = answer

What is the equation of the line
konstantin123 [22]
Hello there!


The answer is B. \frac{2}{7}
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Explanation and Work:



We first must identify if the line goes through the origin or not. 

The origin is (0, 0) 

The line does go through the origin. This means that there is no y-intercept

The specific equation we would you use would be:

y = kx

K is the constant

We find this by finding the slope.

Slope is found by:

\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} 

y2 = 2

y1 = 0

x2 = 7

x1 = 0

Now, let's plug in these numbers.

\frac{2-0}{7-0} =  \frac{2}{7}

So, now let's plug he slope into our formula.

y = \frac{2}{7} x

So, our answer would be B.


I hope I helped!

The center of the circle is at (-2,-7) and its radius is 36.
Vanyuwa [196]
Standard form for circle with radius r and center (h,k) is
(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

r=36
center at -2,-7
(x-(-2))^2+(y-(-7))^2=36^2
(x+2)^2+(y+7)^2=1296
