The function is definately defined at x=0 but not x=1.
But its just one part of the coordinate (x,y).
If the value of y or f(x) is considered, you'll see that it is never possible to attain f(x)=0. In other terms (x,y)= (0,0) is not a defined point in the graph of the function because the graph doesnt pass through that point.
Now I hope you understood what I meant!
Conclusion- The above function is not defined at all points in the space having the abscissa or x=1 in the coordinate and also at ordinate or y=0 in the coordinate.nation:
X = height of pole (in meters)
With respect to the 50 degree angle, the side x is the opposite leg. It is the leg furthest from the reference angle. The hypotenuse is 5 meters.
The trig function sine ties together the opposite and hypotenuse
sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse
sin(50) = x/5
5*sin(50) = x .... multiply both sides by 5
x = 5*sin(50)
------------------
Since x = 5*sin(50) isn't listed as an answer choice, let's try using cosine. We can't use it right away because we don't know the adjacent side. What we can do is change the reference angle. The missing angle of the triangle is 90-50 = 40 degrees. Let's make the 40 degree angle the reference angle
So x is now the adjacent side with respect to the 40 degree reference angle. The hypotenuse is always the longest side. The hypotenuse stays at 5.
cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(40) = x/5
5*cos(40) = x
x = 5*cos(40)
This expression is listed. The answer is choice B
Well it would be 63$ if we are not including tax because 80-17=63
