If tan θ = —— , calculate the value of cos θ:
4
Recall the definition of the tangent function:
sin θ
tan θ = ————
cos θ
5 sin θ
—— = ————
4 cos θ
Cross multiply:
5 · cos θ = 4 · sin θ
Square both sides:
(5 · cos θ)² = (4 · sin θ)²
5² · cos² θ = 4² · sin² θ
25 · cos² θ = 16 · sin² θ
But sin² θ = 1 – cos² θ. Substitute that for sin² θ into the equation above, then you get
25 · cos² θ = 16 · (1 – cos² θ)
25 · cos² θ = 16 – 16 · cos² θ
Isolate cos² θ:
25 · cos² θ + 16 · cos² θ = 16
(25 + 16) · cos² θ = 16
41 · cos² θ = 16
16
cos² θ = ———
41
4²
cos² θ = ————
(√41)²
Take square root of both sides:
4
cos θ = ± ———
√41
4 4
cos θ = – ——— or cos θ = ——— ✔
√41 √41
The sign of cos θ depends on which quadrant θ lies. Since you first have a positive value for tan θ, then that means θ lies either in the 1st or the 3rd quadrant.
• If θ is a 1st quadrant angle, then
cos θ > 0
4
cos θ = ——— ✔
√41
• If θ is a 3rd quadrant angle, then
cos θ < 0
4
cos θ = – ——— ✔
√41

Answer:
Explanation:
The table that shows the pattern for this question is:
Time (year) Population
0 40
1 62
2 96
3 149
4 231
A growing exponentially pattern may be modeled by a function of the form P(x) = P₀(r)ˣ.
Where P₀ represents the initial population (year = 0), r represents the multiplicative growing rate, and P(x0 represents the population at the year x.
Thus you must find both P₀ and r.
<u>1) P₀ </u>
Using the first term of the sequence (0, 40) you get:
P(0) = 40 = P₀ (r)⁰ = P₀ (1) = P₀
Then, P₀ = 40
<u> 2) r</u>
Take two consecutive terms of the sequence:
- P(1) / P(0) = 40r / 40 = 62/40
You can verify that, for any other two consecutive terms you get the same result: 96/62 ≈ 149/96 ≈ 231/149 ≈ 1.55
<u>3) Model</u>
Thus, your model is P(x) = 40(1.55)ˣ
<u> 4) Population of moose after 12 years</u>
- P(12) = 40 (1.55)¹² ≈ 7,692.019 ≈ 7,692, which is round to the nearest whole number.
You would eat 3/10 of the box because 3/4 times 2/5 is 3/10. Whenever you see the word "of" it means multiplication.
