Answer:

45/4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can interpret the question to have two equation which can be solve simultaneously

a+b=7------------(1)

a-b=2------------(2)

From eqn(2) make a subject of formula

a=2+b--------(3)

Substitute the (3) into eqn(1)

a+b=7------------(1)

2+b+b=7

2b=7-2

2b=5

b=5/2

From equation (3) substitute value of b to find a

a=2+b--------(3)

a= 2+5/2

a=9/2

Then What is the value of a x b ?

9/2× 5/2

=45/4

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)The units for measuring angles are degrees and radians

A circle is 360° which is equal to 2π radians

1°=π/180

To convert angle measurement from degrees to radians multiply the value of degrees by π/180

(11)

To convert angle measurement from radians to degree multiply the value of radian by 180/π

(111)Yes it matters because you will use different formulas to calculate the length of the arc

For example , when the central angle is in radians, the formula to apply is;

⇒     S=rФ -------------where  r is the radius of circle and Ф is angle in radians and S is the arc length.

⇒   When the central angle value is in degrees , the formula to apply is

Arc length =2πr×(Ф/360) where Ф is in degrees , r is radius of circle

2. sin\frac{17\pi }{6} \\

we know π=180°

hence 17/6 π=?---------------cross multiply

\frac{17\pi }{6} *180\\\\\\=17\pi *30\\\\\\=510\pi

Apply trigonometry

Find sine 510°

Sine (510°-360°)= sine 150°

Sine 150° = sine 30° = 1/2-----------------2nd quadrant

This means sine 510° = 1/2
