Cos(theta)=-0.96 <0
=>
theta is either in the 2nd or third quadrant.

cos(theta)=-0.96
=>
sec(theta)=1/cos(theta)=-1/0.96   <0

Given sec(theta)(sin(theta)>0
=> cos(theta)sin(theta)>0
=> cos(theta) and sin(theta) have the same sign, 
=> sin(theta)<0 
=>
theta is in the third quadrant. => tan(theta)>0

Given cos(theta)=-0.96
=>
|sin(theta)|=sqrt(1-(-0.96)^2)=sqrt(0.0784)=0.28 
=> sin(theta)=-0.28

Finally, 
tan(theta)=sin(theta)/cos(theta)=-0.28/-0.96
=7/24 
=0.29167 (to the fifth decimal place)

Answer:

The answer to your question is y = 2x + 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Original line   y = -(1/2)x + 5

Point (-4, 3)

Process

1.- Get the slope of the new line

- Slope of the original line = -1/2

  If the lines are perpendicular, the slopes must be reciprocal

                       -1/2  reciprocal = 2

2.- Get the equation of the new line

          y - y1 = m(x - x1)

          y - 3 = 2(x + 4)

- Simplification

         y - 3 = 2x + 8

- Solve for y

        y = 2x + 8 + 3

        y = 2x + 11
