Answer:

1.0125

Step-by-step explanation:

Since b/a is 0.75 and a is given as 0.35

Then let's start by solving for b

Ok...how

b/a=0.75

a=0.35

Then make b the subject of formula

b=0.75×a

Then substitute the value of a

b=0.75×0.35

b=0.2625

Let's continue

b and a means b + a

0.75+0.2625

1.0125

Therefore the final answer is 1.0125

Answer:

Part 4) $r=84\ units$

Part 9) $sin(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}$

Part 10) $sin(\theta)=-\frac{9\sqrt{202}}{202}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 4) A circle has an arc of length 56pi that is intercepted by a central angle of 120 degrees. What is the radius of the circle?

we know that

The circumference of a circle subtends a central angle of 360 degrees

The circumference is equal to

$C=2\pi r$

using proportion

$\frac{2\pi r}{360^o}=\frac{56\pi}{120^o}$

simplify

$\frac{r}{180^o}=\frac{56}{120^o}$

solve for r

$r=\frac{56}{120^o}(180^o)$

$r=84\ units$

Part 9) Given cos(∅)=-2/3 and ∅ lies in Quadrant III. Find the exact value of sin(∅) in simplified form

Remember the trigonometric identity

$cos^2(\theta)+sin^2(\theta)=1$

we have

$cos(\theta)=-\frac{2}{3}$

substitute the given value

$(-\frac{2}{3})^2+sin^2(\theta)=1$

$\frac{4}{9}+sin^2(\theta)=1$

$sin^2(\theta)=1-\frac{4}{9}$

$sin^2(\theta)=\frac{5}{9}$

square root both sides

$sin(\theta)=\pm\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}$

we know that

If ∅ lies in Quadrant III

then

The value of sin(∅) is negative

$sin(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}$

Part 10) The terminal side of ∅ passes through the point (11,-9). What is the exact value of sin(∅) in simplified form?

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

In the right triangle ABC of the figure

$sin(\theta)=\frac{BC}{AC}$

Find the length side AC applying the Pythagorean Theorem

$AC^2=AB^2+BC^2$

substitute the given values

$AC^2=11^2+9^2$

$AC^2=202$

$AC=\sqrt{202}\ units$

$sin(\theta)=\frac{9}{\sqrt{202}}$

simplify

$sin(\theta)=\frac{9\sqrt{202}}{202}$

Remember that

The point (11,-9) lies in Quadrant IV

then

The value of sin(∅) is negative

therefore

$sin(\theta)=-\frac{9\sqrt{202}}{202}$

The value of the expression will decrease as x increases.
You can test this out by plugging in random numbers in place of x, like 20-5=15 and 20-8=12. The value of the expression (or the answer) is becoming smaller as the value of x becomes larger.

Hope this helps :)
