What is the input for inverse trigonometric functions

Answer:

An inverse trigonometric function is a function in which you can input a number and get/output an angle (usually in radians). It is the inverse function of the basic trigonometric functions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Trigonometric functions are derived from ratios of certain sides of a right triangle in reference to an angle. The graph of which is a wave, with amplitude in the y-axis and angle in the x-axis. We will first define the sine function written as:  

 

 

sin(θ)=oppositesidehypotenuse

As we can see, the sine function, together with all the other trigonometric functions, relates an angle to the ratio of an opposite side and the hypotenuse of right triangle. The input here is an angle, and the output is a ratio. Therefore, the inverse process to this is actually just a reverse process.  

Let  

y

=

s

(

θ

)

y=sin(θ)

Then inverse trigonometric function outputs an angle. However, we can set y to its original value via transitivity:  

s

=

θ

sin−1(y)=θsin−1(oppositesidehypotenuse)=θ

Thus we see, that the input to an inverse trigonometric function is a unitless ratio of two sides of a representative right triangle.

ELEN [110]

Answer:

2 cans

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 + 1/4 + 4/5 = 1.55

2 is the best answer since we know the cat eats more than 1 and a half cans so the closest thing would be 2 cans

A tortoise and a hare are competing in a 2000-meter race. The arrogant hare decides to let the tortoise have a 550-meter head st
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

a) distance covered by hare d1 = 8t

b) distance covered by tortoise d2 = 5t + 550

c) ∆d = 550 - 3t

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Speed of hare u = 8m/s

Speed of tortoise v = 5 m/s

Initial distance of tortoise d0 = 550 m

a) using the equation of motion;

distance covered = speed × time + initial distance

d = vt + d0

For hare;

d0 = 0

Substituting the values;

d1 = 8t + 0

d1 = 8t

b)using the equation of motion;

distance covered = speed × time + initial distance

d2 = vt + d0

For tortoise;

d0 = 550m

Substituting the values;

d2 = 5t + 550

d2 = 5t + 550 m

c) the number of meters the tortoise is ahead of the hare.

∆d = distance covered by tortoise - distance covered by hare

∆d = d2 - d1

Substituting the values;

∆d = (5t + 550) - 8t

∆d = 550 - 3t
