Plot the point (-7, -5). We are in quadrant 3.

We also know that tan θ = opp/adj.

Cot θ = adj/opp.

Let us use a^2 + b^2 = r^2 to show you how to find r, the radius aka hypotenuse.

Look: (-7)^2 + (-5)^2 = r^2

If you should ever need to find r, do this:

(-7)^2 + (-5)^2 = r^2

(49) + 25) = r^2

74 = r^2

Take the square root on both sides of the equation to find r.

sqrt{74} = sqrt{r^2}

sqrt{74} = r

It is ok to simplify the sqrt{74} but not needed.

We now have the three sides of the triangle that is form in quadrant 3.

We can now read cot θ from the triangle itself.

So, cot θ = adj/opp = (-7)/(-5) or 7/5.

No need to find r but I simply wanted to show you how it's done in case you are given a question where r must be found.

What is "shift y= 5x 3 units up"
lesya [120]
It's asking you to shift the graph of; y = 5x up 3 units. if you add 3 to the equation, all y-values will be increased by 3 this shifts the graph up exactly 3 units.

y = 5x + 3

8. Solve for x.<br> 28°<br> X
Lerok [7]

Answer:

if X is the angle degree like I think it is, then X = 56 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

isosceles triangles will have 2 equal base angles.

90 degree angle - 28 = 62°

62 is now each base angle.

62 times 2 angles equals 124

the final angle, x, is 180 - 124 = 56°

Find the least common multiple of these two expressions. 15x^7y^3u^8 and 6y^4u^5
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

30x^7y^4u^8

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given two expressions 15x^7y^3u^8 and

6y^4u^5

Now we need to find out least common multiple of these two expressions.

First we need to find out what is common factor of both expressions. 15x^7y^3u^8 and

6y^4u^5

Least common multiple means find the expression which can be divided by both expressions.

15 and 6 both goes into 30

so 30 is part of LCM (least common multiple )

Now pickup the highest exponent of each variable.

So we get x^7y^4u^8

Hence required least common multiple is 30x^7y^4u^8
