Answer:

The exact value of sin A is opp/hyp = -12/13

Step-by-step explanation:

If A is in Quadrant IV then the "opposite side" is negative and the "adjacent side" is positive.  Since sec A = hyp / adj = 13 / 5 and since opp^2 + adj^2 must add up to hyp^2,   Therefore y = √(hyp^2 - adj^2), or

y = -√(13^2 - 25) = -√144 = 12.

The exact value of sin A is opp/hyp = -12/13

The strength of a cable is proportional to the square of its diameter. If a 2-cm cable will support 800kg, how much will a 3-cm
xz_007 [3.2K]
Strength [is proportional to] d^2
strength1/(d1)^2 = strength2/(d2)^2
800kg/(2cm)^2 = strength2/(3cm)^2
strength2 = 800 kg * (3 cm)^2/(2 cm)^2
strength2 = 800 kg * 3^2/2^2
strength2 = 800 kg * 9/4
strength2 = 1800 kg
