Mathematics

GREYUIT [131]3 years ago

Answer:

1/sqrt10

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Find out cosA using formula (cosA)^2+(sinA)^2=1

The module of cosA= sqrt (1- (-3/5)^2)= sqrt 16/25=4/5

So cosA=-4/5 or cosA=4/5.

Due to the condition 270degrees< A<360 degrees, 0<cosA<1 that's why cosA=4/5.

2) Find sinA/2 using a formula cosA= 1-2sinA/2*sinA/2 where cosA=4/5.

(sinA/2)^2= 0.1

sinA= sqrt 0.1= 1/ sqrt10 or sinA= - sqrt 0.1= -1/sqrt10

But 270°< A< 360°, then 270/2°<A/2<360/2°

135°<A/2<180°, so sinA/2 must be positive and the only correct answer is

sin A/2= 1/sqrt10

notsponge [240]

Answer:

2. Given

3. Definition of supplementary angles

4. Substitution Property

5 Subtraction Property

Step-by-step explanation:

2. Given

We are given in the statement that m<1 = 112°

3. Definition of supplementary angles

Supplementary angles definition: Two angles are supplementary if there sum is equal to 180°. That statement states:

m<1 + m<2 = 180°

4. Substitution Property

We put the value of m<1 = 112° in the equation. This is substitution property.

5. Subtraction Property

To find the value of m<2 we subtract 112 from both sides of the equation.

This is subtraction property.

The difference of two number is 2. Their sum is 12. Find the numbers
masya89 [10]
Let the two numbers be larger x and smaller y

The sum of two numbers is 12

x + y = 12

Their difference is 2

x - y = 2

x = 2 + y

Now substituting value of x from


x + y = 12

2 + y + y = 12

2 + 2y = 12

2y = 12 - 2

2y = 10

y = 10/2

y = 5

Substituting the value of y to derive value of x

x = 2 + y

x = 2 + 5

y = 7

The two numbers are larger 7 and smaller 5

cricket20 [7]

In 4 days, you travel 5/7 of a mile. If in 1 day you traveled 5/7 of a mile, you would multiply 5/7 by 1250, which would get you 893 (rounded up). Since it takes you 4 days to travel 5/7 of a mile, you multiply that product by four to get your new product and final sum:

3,571 days. That would take you about 10 YEARS to complete the trip. Please make sure all of the variables in your question were correct to ensure that this is the correct answer.
