Ratio and proprtion

if the leftmost side is z
we know that 2 triangles that are congruent have sides in same ratio

so

x:8:9=z:9:y

8:9=9:y
8/9=9/y
times 9y both sides
8y=81
y=10 and 1/8

The angle θ lies in Quadrant II. sinθ=3/4 What is cosθ ?
Elden [556K]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath

Answer:

[email protected] = - sqrt(7)/ 4    

which is choice B

Discussion:

This problem can be solved by drawing triangles and looking at ratios of sides or by using the trig identity:

([email protected])^2 + (sin2)^2 = 1

If [email protected] = 3/4 , the

([email protected])^2 + (3/4)^2 = 1 =>              (subtract (3/4)^2 from both sides)

([email protected])^2 = 1 - (3/4)^2  = 1 - 9/16   = 7/16

So...... taking the square root of both sides gives

[email protected] =  +\- sqrt(7)/ sqrt(16) = +\- sqrt(7)/4

But is [email protected] positive or negative?  We are told that @ is in the second quadrant and cos(@) is negative in this quadrant, so our answer must be negative

[email protected] = - sqrt(7)/ 4    

which is choice B


Thank you,

Mr. B

Barack walks 2 kilometers south and then x kilometers east. ​ ​He ends 5 kilometers away from his starting position. ​ ​ Find x
amid [387]

Answer:

4.6 km

Step-by-step explanation:

-This is a Pythagorean Theorem problem where the distances walked are effectively the base and height of the imaginary right triangle thereof.

#Apply Pythagorean theorem to solve:

b^2+h^2=H^2\\\\2^2+x^2=5^2\\\\x^2=5^2-2^2=21\\\\x=\sqrt{21}\\\\x=4.58\  km

\approx 4.6\ km

Hence, the distance x is 4.6 km

7- a. What is the radius of the circle with center (3,10) that passes through (12,12)?
loris [4]

Answer: a. Radius of circle = \sqrt{85}

b. The equation of this circle : (x-3)^2+(y-10)^2=85

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Center of the circle = (3,10)

Circle is passing through (12,12).

a. To find the radius we apply distance formula (∵ Radius is the distance from center to any point ion the circle.)

Radius of circle = \sqrt{(12-3)^2+(12-10)^2}

Radius of circle = \sqrt{(9)^2+(2)^2}=\sqrt{81+4}=\sqrt{85}

i.e. Radius of circle = \sqrt{85}

b. Equation of a circle = (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 , where (h,k)=Center and r=radius of the circle.

Put the values of (h,k)= (3,10) and r= \sqrt{85} , we get

(x-3)^2+(y-10)^2=(\sqrt{85})^2

(x-3)^2+(y-10)^2=85

∴  The equation of this circle :(x-3)^2+(y-10)^2=85
