pantera1 [17]3 years ago

Answers:

tan(A) = 8/15

sin(A) = 8/17

cos(A) = 15/17

==================================================

Explanation:

The tangent ratio involves the opposite over adjacent. With respect to angle A, the opposite side is 8 units long as this side is as far as possible away from angle A. In contrast, the adjacent side is 15 units long because this leg is closest possible and the two are right next to one another.

Therefore,

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(A) = BC/AC

tan(A) = 8/15

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

As for the other trig ratios, they are:

sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse

cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse

which explains why sin(A) and cos(A) are 8/17 and 15/17 respectively.

we believe that 42% of freshmen do not visit their counselors regularly. For this year, you would like to obtain a new sample to
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

A sample of 1077 is required.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

The margin of error is of:

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

42% of freshmen do not visit their counselors regularly.

This means that \pi = 0.42

98% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.02, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.02}{2} = 0.99, so Z = 2.327.

How large of a sample size is required?

A sample size of n is required, and n is found when M = 0.035. So

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

0.035 = 2.327\sqrt{\frac{0.42*0.58}{n}}

0.035\sqrt{n} = 2.327\sqrt{0.42*0.58}

\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.327\sqrt{0.42*0.58}}{0.035}

(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{2.327\sqrt{0.42*0.58}}{0.035})^2

n = 1076.8

Rounding up:

A sample of 1077 is required.

Help me find the answer <br>Tan 0 and Cot O ​
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

we can say the angle is also +45° going in the clock wise direction.  so take Tan(45)= 1

Cot(45) = 1

b/c  Tan(45) = Sin(45) /Cos(45) = (\sqrt{2}/2) / (\sqrt{2}/2)   ofc that's just 1

b/c Cot(45) = Cos(45) / Sin(45) , which is the same as above 1
