The student used the wrong trig ratio. They should use cosine instead.

\cos(\text{angle}) = \frac{\text{adjacent}}{\text{hypotenuse}}\\\\\cos(x) = \frac{9}{29}\\\\x = \cos^{-1}\left(\frac{9}{29}\right)\\\\x \approx 71.9^{\circ}\\\\

If the student wanted to use sine, then they would need to use the pythagorean theorem to find the opposite side first. I recommend using cosine since it's faster. Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.

Answer:

x = 71.9 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

cos x= 9÷29

cos x= 0.31

x =cos-1(0.31)

x = 71.9 degrees

Which is the graph of y = _0.4x?<br><br> A.<br><br><br> B.<br><br><br> C.<br><br><br> D.
cestrela7 [59]
Y = -0.4x

1) It is a straight line
2) I passes through the origin (0,0), because the y-intercpet is 0.
3) The slope is negative, so it passes throuh II and III quadrants
4) The magnitude of the slope = 0.4
4) The angle of the line with the negative side of the x-axis is that whose tan is 0.4 => angle = 21.8 °

With all that information you can identify the graph, given that you didn't include the options.

aev [14]
<span>Solution :- The value of pi expressed in radians and its equivalent degree is = 180 degree Hence, the value of pi/3 = 180/ 3 = 60 deg similarly, the value of pi/3 = 180/4= 45 deg similarly, the value of pi/2= 180/2= 90 deg Ans :- The angles of pi/3, pi/4, pi/ 4 is = 60, 45, 90 degree respectively. Hence the right option is answer is A.</span>

What is 5p to the -7 power/20p to the 2 power simplified
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

p^(-9) or 1/p^9

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have:

  (5p)^(-7)

----------------

   (20p)^2

Let's temporarily remove the coefficient 5/20 and reduce it to 1/4.

then we have:

            1                             1               1

(1/4) -------------  = (1/4) -------------- = ------------

       p^7*p^2               p^(7 + 2)         p^9
