Solve for x.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Masteriza [31]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = 2.5 or -0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are to use completing the square method to solve for the values of x

Firstly, we divide through by 4

= x^2 -7/4x -2 = 0

Now, we move the two term to the right hand side

x^2 -7/4x = 2

Now, we divide the coefficient of x by 2 and square it;

That would be;

(-7/4 * 1/2)^2 = 49/64

we now add this value to both sides of the equation

x^2 -7/4x + 49/64 = 2 + 49/64

The right hand side can be rewritten as;

(x-7/8)^2 = 177/64

taking the square root of both sides

x-7/8 = √(177/64)

x = 7/8 ± √(177/64)

x = 7/8 + √(177/74) or 7/8 - √(177/64)

= x = 2.53802 or -0.788017

Which to the nearest tenth is

x = 2.5 or -0.8

What is the length of the long leg if the short leg is 3 and the hypotenuse is 16
Lerok [7]

Answer:

leg^2 + leg^2 = hypotenuse^2

3^2 + x^2 = 6^2

6^2= 36

3^2 = 9

36 - 9 = 27

sqrt of 27 = 5.196

Rounded = 5.2

Hope this helps

Use the circle unit to find sin 90 degrees
kati45 [8]

Answer:

Sin 90°=1

Step-by-step explanation:

A unit circle is a circle with a radius of 1 .Because the radius is 1, it is possible to directly measure the sine, cosine and tangent.

<em>using the unit circle where 90° is the limit as the hypotenuse approaches the vertical y-axis which is positive.</em>

Sine=opposite/hypotenuse

Sin=O/H

<u>Applying the limits</u>

Sine 90°=1/1= 1

cos 90° =0/1 =0

or

When the angle formed at the origin of the unit circle in the 1st quadrant is 0°, cos 0°=1 sin0°=0  and tan 0°=0

When we increase the angle until it is 90°, cos 90°=0, sin 90°=1 and tan 90°=undefined
