Now, keeping in mind that, sine is opposite/hypotenuse, and that the hypotenuse is just a radius unit, and therefore is never negative, then, in the fraction of -3/5, the negative values has to be the numerator, not the hypotenuse.

something else to keep in mind is that, cosine > 0, meaning is positive, that only happens in the I and IV quadrants.

since we know the sine is negative, and the cosine is positive, the only place that occurs is on the IV quadrant, so then θ is in the IV quadrant.

 \bf sin(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{-3}}{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{5}}\impliedby \textit{now let's find the \underline{adjacent side}}
\\\\\\
\textit{using the pythagorean theorem}\\\\
c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \pm\sqrt{c^2-b^2}=a\qquad 
\begin{cases}
c=hypotenuse\\
a=adjacent\\
b=opposite\\
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
\pm\sqrt{5^2-(-3)^2}=a\implies \pm\sqrt{25-9}=a\implies \pm\sqrt{16}=a
\\\\\\
\pm 4=a\implies \stackrel{IV~quadrant}{4=a}

\bf cos(\theta)=\cfrac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}
\qquad 
% tangent
tan(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{adjacent}
\\\\\\
% cotangent
cot(\theta)=\cfrac{adjacent}{opposite}
\qquad 
% cosecant
csc(\theta)=\cfrac{hypotenuse}{opposite}
\quad 
% secant
sec(\theta)=\cfrac{hypotenuse}{adjacent}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
cos(\theta)=\cfrac{4}{5}\qquad tan(\theta)=\cfrac{-3}{4}\qquad cot(\theta)=\cfrac{4}{-3}
\\\\\\
csc(\theta)=\cfrac{5}{-3}\qquad sec(\theta)=\cfrac{5}{4}

What is the value of x? Round to the nearest tenth. Please Help
Elodia [21]

Answer:

<h2>x = 6.5 cm</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The segment 20.2 cm is the tangent. Therefore x and 20.2cm are perpendicular.

Use the Pythagorean theorem:

leg^2+leg^2=hypotenuse^2

We have

leg=x,\ leg=20.2cm,\ hypotenuse=(14.7+x)cm

Substitute:

x^2+20.2^2=(14.7+x)^2           <em>use (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²</em>

x^2+408.04=14.7^2+(2)(14.7)(x)+x^2          <em>subtract x² from both sides</em>

408.04=216.09+29.4x        <em>subtract 216.09 from both sides</em>

191.95=29.4x         <em>divide both sides by 29.4</em>

x\approx6.5\ cm
