If sin x = 12/37, we have to find cos x.
The identity:
sin² x + cos² x = 1
( 12/37)² + cos² x = 1
144 / 1369 + cos² x = 1
cos² x = 1 - 144/1369
cos² x = 1369/1369  - 144/1369
cos² x = 1225 / 1369
cos x = +/- √ 1225/1369 = +/- 35/37
Answer:
A ) cos ? = +/- 35 over 37

SOH CAH TOA
Lets us know that the Sin of ? Is 12/37; meaning the opposite side is 12, and the hypotenuse is 37. Using the Pythagorean Theorem, we know that 37^2-12^2=B^2 (B being the adjacent side). Once solved, we learn B is 35. Going back to SOH CAH TOA, we know that Cos ?= 35/37; the first option.

Hope this helps!

Jaylen decided to buy a new digital camera that retails for $199. If the store is currently running a promotion on all cameras f
Gnesinka [82]

So 25% of $199 is $49.75. If you subtract the promotion off you get 199-49.75=149.25. Then the sales tax is 6% so you take the new cost $149.25 and multiply it by .06 which equals 8.955. so then you add on the tax so $149.25+8.955=$158.205. Your answer is $158.205 or approximately $158.21

The altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle divides the hypotenuse into segments 3cm and 27cm long. Find the length of th
marissa [1.9K]
To find the length of the altitude, we have to use the ratios of the similar sides.
Let the length of altitude=x
Ratio of sides:
\frac{x}{3} = \frac{27}{x}  \\&#10;Cross \ multiply \\&#10; x^{2} =81 \\&#10;Take \ square \ root.\\&#10; \sqrt{x^2}= \sqrt{81} \\&#10;x=9 \\
So length of altitude is 9 cm.

Answer: 9 cm
