Given:

In a right angle triangle θ is an acute angle and \tan\theta =\dfrac{3}{5}.

To find:

The value of \cos \theta.

Solution:

In a right angle triangle,

\tan \theta=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}

We have,

\tan\theta =\dfrac{3}{5}

It means the ratio of perpendicular to base is 3:5. Let 3x be the perpendicular and 5x be the base.

By using Pythagoras theorem,

Hypotenuse=\sqrt{Perpendicular^2+base^2}

Hypotenuse=\sqrt{(3x)^2+(5x)^2}

Hypotenuse=\sqrt{9x^2+25x^2}

Hypotenuse=\sqrt{34x^2}

Hypotenuse=x\sqrt{34}

In a right angle triangle,

\cos \theta=\dfrac{Base}{Hypotenuse}

\cos \theta=\dfrac{5x}{x\sqrt{34}}

\cos \theta=\dfrac{5}{\sqrt{34}}

Therefore, the value of \cos \theta is \dfrac{5}{\sqrt{34}}.

Which Pairs are additive inverses?<br> a. 6,-(-6)<br> b. -7,7<br> c.-7,-7<br> d.7,7<br> e.6,-6
xz_007 [3.2K]

I was never sure of what the "additive inverse" is. 
So, just now, just for you, I went and looked it up.

The additive inverse of any number ' A ' is the number
that you need to ADD to A to get zero.  That's all !

So now, let's check out the choices:

a), 6, -(-6)

That second number, -(-6), is the same as +6 .
So the two numbers are the same.
Do you get zero when you add them up ?  No.

b). -7, 7
What do you get when you add -7 and 7 ?
You get zero.
So these ARE additive inverses.

c). -7, -7
What do you get when you add -7 to -7 ?
You get -14 .  That's not zero, so these
are NOT additive inverses.

d).  7, 7
What do you get when you add 7 to 7 ?
You get 14.  That's NOT zero, so these
are NOT additive inverses.

e).  6, -6
What do you get when you add 6 to -6 ?
You get zero.
So these ARE additive inverses.

What do we end up with from the list of choices:

a).,  c).,  and d). are NOT additive inverses.

b). and e). ARE additive inverses.

First figure out of it is a arithmetic or geometric sequence, in this case it is a geometric sequence because you have to multiply, not add to find the next number.

Divide one number, I'll pick 324 by the number before it, 108, you get three.

Now divide 36 by 3, you get 12.

To check, multiply 12 by 3, you get 36, multiply that by 3, you get 108, and so on and so forth.
