If sin t = -8/17 and t is a quadrant III angle, find cot t

Answer:cot t = 1.875

sin t=\frac{-8}{17} but sin²t + cos²t = 1 ⇔ cos²t = 1 - sin²t

⇔cos t = \sqrt{1-sin^{2}t }=\sqrt{1-(\frac{-8}{17})^{2}  }=|\frac{15}{17}|

but  t is a quadrant III angle => cos t = \frac{-15}{17}

=> cot t = \frac{-15}{17}:\frac{-8}{17}=\frac{15}{8}=1.875

Find the mean, meadian, mode and range for each set of data 6, 9, 2, 4, 3, 6, 5
Helga [31]

Mean: Add up the numbers and divide the sum by the number of values in the set.

6 + 9 + 2 + 4 + 3 + 6 + 5 = 35

35 / 7 = 5

Median: Sort the set from the smallest value to the largest value and select the number in the middle. If the count of the set if even, then select the two middle values and take their mean average.

2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6, 9

            ^

So, the median average is 5.

Mode: What number appears the most frequently?

The mode of the set is 6 because it appears twice.

Range: Sort the set by ascending order and take the smallest value and subtract that from the largest value in the set.

9 - 2 = 7

The range is 7.

I need help solving problem 11.
Lunna [17]
Since triangle ABC is isosceles, then angles 1 and 9 are congruent.

4x + 3 = 9x - 47

-5x = -50

x = 10

m<1 = 4x + 3 = 40 + 3 = 43

m<1 = m<9 = 43

Triangle DBE is equilateral, so it is also equiangular.

m< 4 = m<5 = m<6 =60

Angles 3 and 8 are supplementary to congruent angles that measure 60 deg, so 180 - 60 = 120, so

m<3 = m<8 = 120

For angles 2 and 7, use the sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180 deg.

m<1 + m<2 + m<3 = 180

43 + m<2 + 120 = 180

m<2 + 163 = 180

m<2 = 17

m<2 = m<7 = 17

Answer:

12\sqrt{6} + 8\sqrt{15} + 12 + 4\sqrt{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rule of radicals

\sqrt{a} × \sqrt{b} ⇔ \sqrt{ab}

Given

(4\sqrt{3} + 2\sqrt{2} )(3\sqrt{2} + 2\sqrt{5} )

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

4\sqrt{3} (3\sqrt{2} + 2\sqrt{5} ) + 2\sqrt{2} (3\sqrt{2} + 2\sqrt{5} ) ← distribute both parenthesis

= 12\sqrt{6} + 8\sqrt{15} + 12 + 4\sqrt{10}
