Step-by-step explanation:

step 1. This is a 30-60-90 triangle where the side opposite the 30° is the smallest and represented as x, the side opposite the 60 ° is the middle length at x(sqrt(3)) and the side opposite the 90° is the longest side at 2x. note: sqrt is the square root.

step 2. The ladder is 6m and is the 2x side.

step 3. The wall is across from the 60° side and is the x side.

step 4. if the 2x side is 6m then the x side is 3m.

step 5. The ladder is 3m up the side of the house.

Given that sinФ = 8/17 and cos Ф < 0:
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

1) The terminal side lies in quadrant 2

2) cosФ = -15/17

3) tanФ = -8/15

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, we should realize that since sinФ = 8/17, it is positive. Thus, Ф must be in quadrants 1 or 2. And since cosФ is negative, Ф must be in quadrant 2 because cos, sin, and tan are all positive in quadrant 1

2) Next, we must realize that the sides given are a 8-15-17 right triangle. And in this case, since sinФ = 8/17, cosФ should be 15/17. But since cosФ is negative, cosФ = -15/17

3) Lastly, tanФ is opposite/adjacent. Since opposite of Ф is 8 and adjacent of Ф is 15, then tanФ should be 8/15, but since Ф is in quadrant 2, then tanФ is -8/15
