ANSWER
A) 9.4 * 10^-8, 9.25 * 10^-6, 2.5 * 10^3, 7* 10^3
EXPLANATION
The numbers are given in standard form.
The first criteria we will use to order them is the exponents.
The bigger the exponents the bigger the number.
The second criteria is that, if the exponents of any two numbers are the same, then we use the numbers multiplying the powers of 10 to order.
The correct choice is A.
The exact measure of the angle is 45°.
<h3>How to get the angle?</h3>
We know that the terminal side passes through a point of the form (√2/2, y).
Notice that the point is on the unit circle, so its module must be equal to 1, so we can write:
We know that y is positive because the point is on the first quadrant.
Now, we know that our point is:
(√2/2, 1/√2)
And we can rewrite:
√2/2 = 1/√2
So the point is:
( 1/√2, 1/√2)
Finally, remember that a point (x, y), the angle that represents it is given by:
θ = Atan(y/x).
Then in this case, we have:
θ = Atan(1/√2/1/√2) = Atan(1) = 45°
