Answer:

sin(θ)=√7/4

tan(θ)= - √7/3

Step-by-step explanation:

c^2= √(4^2-(-3^2))

c^2= √(16-9)

c^2= √7

sin(θ)= opp/hyp=√7/4

tan(θ)= (opp )/adj= - √7/3

How I was taught all of these problems is in terms of r, x, and y. Where sin = y/r, cos = x/r, tan = y/x, csc = r/y, sec = r/x, cot = x/y. That is how I will designate all of the specific pieces in each problem.

#3

Let's start with sin here. \frac{2\sqrt{5}}{5} = \frac{2}{\sqrt{5}} Therefore, because sin is y/r, r = \sqrt{5} and y = +2. Moving over to cot, which is x/y, x = -1, and y = 2. We know y has to be positive because it is positive in our given value of sin. Now, to find cos, we have to do x/r.

cos = \frac{-1}{\sqrt{5}} = \frac{-\sqrt{5}}{5}

#4

Let's start with secant here. Secant is r/x, where r (the length value/hypotenuse) cannot be negative. So, r = 9 and x = -7. Moving over to tan, x must still equal -7, and y = 4\sqrt{2}. Now, to find csc, we have to do r/y.

csc = \frac{9}{4\sqrt{2}} = \frac{9\sqrt{2}}{8}

The pythagorean identities are

sin^2 + cos^2 = 1,

1 + cot^2 = csc^2,

tan^2 + 1 = sec^2.

#5

Let's take a look at the information given here. We know that cos = -3/4, and sin (the y value), must be greater than 0. To find sin, we can use the first pythagorean identity.

sin^2 + (-3/4)^2 = 1

sin^2 + 9/16 = 1

sin^2 = 7/16

sin = \sqrt{7/16} = \frac{\sqrt{7}}{4}

Now to find tan using a pythagorean identity, we'll first need to find sec. sec is the inverse/reciprocal of cos, so therefore sec = -4/3. Now, we can use the third trigonometric identity to find tan, just as we did for sin. And, since we know that our y value is positive, and our x value is negative, tan will be negative.

tan^2 + 1 = (-4/3)^2

tan^2 + 1 = 16/9

tan^2 = 7/9

tan = -\sqrt{7/9} = \frac{-\sqrt{7}}{3}

#6

Let's take a look at the information given here. If we know that csc is negative, then our y value must also be negative (r will never be negative). So, if cot must be positive, then our x value must also be negative (a negative divided by a negative makes a positive). Let's use the second pythagorean identity to solve for cot.

1 + cot^2 = (\frac{-\sqrt{6}}{2})^{2}

1 + cot^2 = 6/4

cot^2 = 2/4

cot = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}

tan = \sqrt{2}

Next, we can use the third trigonometric identity to solve for sec. Remember that we can get tan from cot, and cos from sec. And, from what we determined in the beginning, sec/cos will be negative.

(\frac{2}{\sqrt{2}})^2 + 1 = sec^2

4/2 + 1 = sec^2

2 + 1 = sec^2

sec^2 = 3

sec = -\sqrt{3}

cos = \frac{-\sqrt{3}}{3}

Hope this helps!! :)

What is -5/12 - 4/14 + 6/34
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

4 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at this expression as given in the original problem; the numbers, properly typewritten, are    -5  1/2,  - 4  1/4,  + 6  3/4.

We want to combine these three numbers into one.

To do this, we need the LCD; it is 4.

Thus, -5  1/2 is rewritten as  -5  2/4.

Then we have

-5  2/4 - 4  1/4 + 6  3/4  = -5 -4 + 6 + 2/4 + 1/4 + 3/4.

This simplifies to:                 +3 + 6/4, or 3 + 1  + 2/4, or

                                                                      4  1/2

The 3 side lengths of a right-
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer: the area of the triangle = 10.5 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 3x=a, 4x=b, 5x=c.

Hence,

P=2*(a+b+c)

36=2*(3x+4x+5x)

36=2*12x

36=24x

Divide both parts of the equation by 24:

1.5 cm=x

a=3x

a=3*1.5

a=4.5 cm

b=4x

b=4*1.5

b=6 cm

c=5x

c=5*1.5

c=7.5 cm

\displaystyle\\S=\frac{a*b}{2} \\\\S=\frac{4.5*6}{2} \\\\S=3.5*3\\\\S=10.5\  cm^2
