8 0

Answer:

8/17 is correct because cosine = adjacent/hypotenuse, and since angle A is theta, or the reference angle, the adjacent of A would be 8, and the hypotenuse is always across the right angle.

15/17 would be sine instead of cosine

What is the principal square root of -4

devlian [24]

Answer:

The principal square root of -4 is 2i.

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sqrt{-4}$ = 2i

We have the following steps to get the answer:

Applying radical rule $\sqrt{-a} =\sqrt{-1} \sqrt{a}$

We get $\sqrt{-4} =\sqrt{-1} \sqrt{4}$

As per imaginary rule we know that $\sqrt{-1}=i$

= $\sqrt{4} i$

Now $\sqrt{4} =2$

Hence, the answer is 2i.
