Given:

\sin (u)=-\dfrac{7}{25}

\cos (v)=-\dfrac{4}{5}

To find:

The exact value of cos(u-v) if both angles are in quadrant 3.

Solution:

In 3rd quadrant, cos and sin both trigonometric ratios are negative.

We have,

\sin (u)=-\dfrac{7}{25}

\cos (v)=-\dfrac{4}{5}

Now,

\cos (u)=-\sqrt{1-\sin^2 (u)}

\cos (u)=-\sqrt{1-(-\dfrac{7}{25})^2}

\cos (u)=-\sqrt{1-\dfrac{49}{625}}

\cos (u)=-\sqrt{\dfrac{625-49}{625}}

On further simplification, we get

\cos (u)=-\sqrt{\dfrac{576}{625}}

\cos (u)=-\dfrac{24}{25}

Similarly,

\sin (v)=-\sqrt{1-\cos^2 (v)}

\sin (v)=-\sqrt{1-(-\dfrac{4}{5})^2}

\sin (v)=-\sqrt{1-\dfrac{16}{25}}

\sin (v)=-\sqrt{\dfrac{25-16}{25}}

\sin (v)=-\sqrt{\dfrac{9}{25}}

\sin (v)=-\dfrac{3}{5}

Now,

\cos (u-v)=\cos u\cos v+\sin u\sin v

\cos (u-v)=\left(-\dfrac{24}{25}\right)\left(-\dfrac{4}{5}\right)+\left(-\dfrac{7}{25}\right)\left(-\dfrac{3}{25}\right)

\cos (u-v)=\dfrac{96}{625}+\dfrac{21}{625}

\cos (u-v)=\dfrac{1 17}{625}

Therefore, the value of cos (u-v) is 0.1872.

Harman [31]
The garden area is maximum when the enclosure is a square.
If a is the length of the side of the square then the length of the building is also a.
The perimeter length is 4a made up of 81+a feet, so 81+a=4a and 3a=81 making a=27 feet.

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

I would go with C.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Some of the students did better on the q1 and q3 area but overall the minimum and maxium are still the same amount so the effect didnt work.  The highest grade on the pretest was the same on the post test and likewise with the lowest score so the answer would be C
