Answer: There are two solutions and they are

theta = 135

theta = 225

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

Explanation:

Recall that x = cos(theta). Since the given cosine value is negative, this indicates x < 0. Theta is somewhere to the left of the y axis, placing it in quadrant 2 or quadrant 3.

It turns out there are two solutions, with one solution per quadrant mentioned above. Use the unit circle to find that the two solutions are:

theta = 135

theta = 225

You're looking for points on the unit circle that have x coordinate equal to x = -sqrt(2)/2. Those two points correspond to the angles of 135 and 225, which are in quadrants 2 and 3 respectively.

--------

I recommend using your calculator to note that

-sqrt(2)/2 = -0.70710678

cos(135) = -0.70710678

cos(225) = -0.70710678

The decimal values are approximate. Make sure your calculator is in degree mode. Because those three results are the same decimal approximation, this indicates that cos(135) = cos(225) = -sqrt(2)/2.

Factorise and solve : x^3-x^2-4x+4
Alika [10]

(x - 1)(x - 2)(x + 2)

note that the sum of the coefficients 1 - 1 - 4 + 4 = 0

thus x = 1 is a root and (x - 1 ) is a factor

dividing x³ - x² - 4x + 4 by (x - 1)

x³ - x² - 4x + 4 = (x - 1)(x² - 4 ) (note (x² - 4 ) is a difference of squares )

x³ - x² - 4x + 4 = (x - 1)(x - 2)(x + 2)

(x - 1)(x - 2)(x + 2 ) =0

x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

solutions are x = 1 or x = ± 2

An item is regularly priced at $83. It is on sale for 95% off the regular price.
natita [175]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Regular price  = $ 83

Discount  = 95% of 83

               = 0.95 * 83

              = $ 78.85

Price after discount = 83 - 78.85

                                = $ 4.15

64 FL oz

1 pint is 12 fl oz.

Since you're looking for 4 pints, you multiply everything by 4.


1 x 4 = 4
12 x 4 = 64

Special right triangles 45-45-90 &amp; 30-60-90 formula!!<br> finding missing side lengths
nordsb [41]

The formula you need to know is that the side opposite of the 30° angle is always half the hypotheneus. For example in question 2 X should be 6 since 3 is opposite side of the angle 30°. In a 45 45 90 triangle, it is important to know that the straight sides are always the same length (since they are the same angle). For example in question 9, v is also 9√2.

When you have two sides, you can figure out the third side with a² + b² = c² since they are all right triangles. Good luck
