Question

Which statement is accurate for the right triangle shown below? Ꮎ 50 1 a 47

Answer 1

Answer:

The statement that is accurate is csc(θ)=1.06

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the reference angle in this triangle, we can see that the side that is 47 units is opposite of it, the side that is 50 units is the hypotenuse, and the side that is 17 units is adjacent to it.

Because we know this, we can plug our sides into the formula for cscθ, secθ, and cotθ.

So:

cotθ=adjacent/opposite = 17/47= 0.36

cscθ=hypotenuse/opposite = 50/47=1.06

Now without even looking at the other statements, we can see that the second one is correct as cscθ=hypotenuse/opposite = 50/47=1.06

Therefore, the statement that is accurate is csc(θ)=1.06.
