If a transversal is perpendicular to one of two parallel lines, how many different angle measures are formed?

1 answer:

8 0

Hello

If we draw to parallel lines and then draw a line transversal through them we will get eight different angles. The eight angles will together form four pairs of corresponding angles

Answer:

CE and GD

Step-by-step explanation:

A secant of a circle is a line which passes through only 2 points of the circle. So it bisects the circle at exactly 2 points. BF is not a secant because even though the points are labelled there is no line passing through. The reason why GD is a secant is because there are the points G and F and a straight line runs through them so that's why it's a secant

Find the exact value of cos theta, given that sin thetaequalsStartFraction 15 Over 17 EndFraction and theta is in quadrant II.

Answer:

$cos \theta = -\frac{8}{17}$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we know that:

$sin \theta = \frac{15}{17}$

And we want to find the value for $cos \theta$ , so then we can use the following basic identity:

$cos^2 \theta + sin^2 \theta =1$

And if we solve for $cos \theta$ we got:

$cos^2 \theta = 1- sin^2 \theta$

$cos \theta =\pm \sqrt{1-sin^2 \theta}$

And if we replace the value given we got:

$cos \theta =\pm \sqrt{1- (\frac{15}{17})^2}=\sqrt{\frac{64}{289}}=\frac{\sqrt{64}}{\sqrt{289}}=\frac{8}{17}$

For our case we know that the angle is on the II quadrant, and on this quadrant we know that the sine is positive but the cosine is negative so then the correct answer for this case would be:

$cos \theta = -\frac{8}{17}$
