Answer:

(1)csc A=\dfrac{17}{8}

(2)sec A=\dfrac{17}{15}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u />Tan A=\dfrac{8}{15}\\$In Trigonometry, $Tan A=\dfrac{Opposite}{Adjacent}\\$Therefore:\\Opposite=8, Adjacent=15<u />

Using Pythagoras theorem

Hypotenuse^2=Opposite^2+Adjacent^2\\Hypotenuse^2=8^2+15^2\\Hypotenuse^2=289\\Hypotenuse^2=17^2\\Hypotenuse=17

<u>Question 1</u>

Now, cosecant = 1/sin

Therefore:

csc A=\dfrac{Hypotenuse}{Opposite}\\csc A=\dfrac{17}{8}

<u>Question 2</u>

Now, secant = 1/cos

Therefore:

sec A=\dfrac{Hypotenuse}{Adjacent}\\sec A=\dfrac{17}{15}

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1)The tangent trigonometric ratio is expressed as

Tan # = opposite side/adjacent side

Where

# represents the reference angle

From the information given,

Tan A = 8/15

Opposite side = 8

Adjacent side = 15

We would determine the hypotenuse,h by applying Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as

Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

h² = 8² + 15² = 289

h = √289 = 17

Sin A = opposite side/hypotenuse

Sin A = 8/17

Csc A = 1/SinA

Csc A = 17/8

2) Cos A = adjacent side/hypotenuse

Cos A = 15/17

Sec A = 1/Cos A

Sec A = 17/15

Identify the best big-O estimate for the number of comparisons used by the algorithm that determines the number of 1s in a bit s
Westkost [7]

Answer:

0(n)

Step-by-step explanation:

Result previous exercise:  

procedure count(a1a2...an : string with n > 1)

i:=0

for k:=1 to n

if ak =1 then i:=i + I

return i  

<em>Note</em><em>: If you use a different algorithm, then you could possible get different results.  </em>

<u>SOLUTION  </u>

There is only one part of the code that contains an operation (comparison), namely if a_k =1  

This comparison is executed in every iteration of the for-loop  

k can take on the values from 1 to n (for k:=I to n), thus k can take on n values.  

Thus in total there are then n comparisons, while n is 0(n).

Formula D = m/V
ryzh [129]
Answer:
21

Explanation:
d=m/v
3=m/7
Multiply both sides by 7 to cancel it out of the right side
3*7=(m/7)7
21=m

I hope this helps! Please comment if you have any questions.

Scilla [17]
You can not eat out, go to a movie, and go to a concert in the same month because you would exceed your budget of $100 by $10.
