Answer:

The value of \sin (90-\theta) is:

\dfrac{11}{15}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given an angle  "Theta" or θ which lie in the first quadrant i.e.  0°≤θ≤90°

Also we are given cosine of angle theta as:

\cos \theta=\dfrac{11}{15}

Now we are asked to find the value of:

\sin (90-\theta)

We know that:

\sin (90-\theta)=\cos (\theta)

( Since, the conversion of the angle 90-θ will remain in the same first quadrant

since, 0°≤θ≤90°

-90°≤-θ≤0°

90°-90°≤90°-θ≤90°

Hence,   0°≤90°-θ≤90°

    and as both cosine and sine function are positive in the first quadrant,

so, the conversion gives:

\sin (90-\theta)=\cos (\theta) )

Hence, the value of:

\sin (90-\theta)=\dfrac{11}{15}

11/15=0.7333
cos^{-1}(0.7333) =42.83342
sin(90-47.166572) = 0.7333

first, find the numeric value for 11/15
second to find theta, simply do the <em>inverse</em> cos (which is cos^-1) of the first answer.
now you know theta, just do the sin of 90 - theta and that's it!

since you know whatr cos(theta) is, you just take the inverse cos of that number to get theta and 'reverse' cos, essentially. you are just solving for theta, by reversing the cos function with cos^-1
please mark as brainliest!

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Length: 360. Width: 240.

Step-by-step explanation:

360 * 2 = 720

240 * 2 = 480

720 + 480 = 1,200

The base of a parallelogram is28.4 centimeters the height is one fourth of the base. What the area of the parallelogram?
brilliants [131]
The base of a parallelogram is 28.4 cm.
 The height is one fourth of the base.
28.4 ÷ 4 = 7.1, so the height is 7.1 cm.
What the area of the parallelogram?
The area of any parallelogram is the base times the height.
28.4 cm × 7.1 cm = 201.64 cm²

Cole says that all quadrilaterals are polygons but not all polygons are quadrilaterals is he correct explain������
zepelin [54]
YES, this is correct. All quadrilaterals whether is a trapezoid, parallelogram, rhombus and others, they are all polygons and all they have 4 sides and 4 angles. We know that a polygon is a figure with at least three sides and three angles.

Not all polygons are quadrilateral, this is also correct since some polygons have five or more sides and angles.

If a is the average (arithmetic mean) of 4x and 7, b is the average of 5x and 6, and c is the average of 3x and 11, what is the
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

2x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a is the average (arithmetic mean) of 4x and 7, b is the average of 5x and 6, and c is the average of 3x and 11

By definition of arithmetic mean,

we have a=\frac{4x+7}{2} \\b=\frac{5x+6}{2} \\c=\frac{3x+11}{2}

Let us calculate sum of a,b,c in terms of x

a+b+c = \frac{4x+7+5x+6+3x+11}{2} \\=6x+12

Average = sum/3 = \frac{6x+12}{3} =2x+4
