Point P is located at 1/3 the distance from S to N

This means NP is 2/3 the distance.

16 /2 = 8, so each 1/3 distance is equal to 8.

NS = 8 units.

In a right triangle, CosA=0.352 and SinA=0.936 What is the approximate value of tanA?

mr_godi [17]

$\tan A=\frac{\sin A}{\cos A}$

Proof: $\sin\div\cos=\frac{o}h\div\frac{a}h=\frac{o}h\times\frac{h}a=\frac{oh}{ha}=\frac{o}a=\tan$

$\cos A=0.352,\ \sin A=0.936$

$\tan A=\frac{0.936}{0.352}$

$\boxed{\tan A=2.65\overline{90}}$ (round as needed)

Solve. -7x=x^2+12 help

Nat2105 [25]

Hey There!

The answer to your problem is $x=-3$ or $x=-4$ both answers are correct!

Step 1: Subtract x²+12 from both sides.

−7x−(x²+12)=x²+12−(x²+12)

−x²−7x−12=0

Step 2: Factor left side of equation.

$(-x-3)(x+4)=0$

Step 3: Set factors equal to 0.

$-x-3=0$ or $x+4=0$

Get your answer:

$x=-3$ or $x=-4$
