Your close, it wouldn’t be 6 ft it would be 6 inches, I know that is just a misread but I thought I would clarify.

Answer:

6ft tall

Step-by-step explanation:

Given we know that the scale is 1 in 2ft.

Using this information we know we could divide 12/2=6. We also know that we could multiply 2×6=12. Therefore, we know that the model plane is 6ft tall.

I hope this helps!

Find exact values for sin θ, cos θ and tan θ if csc θ = 3/2 and cos θ < 0.

kumpel [21]

Answer:

Part 1) $sin(\theta)=\frac{2}{3}$

Par 2) $cos(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}$

Part 3) $tan(\theta)=-\frac{2\sqrt{5}}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the $sin(\theta)$

we have

$csc(\theta)=\frac{3}{2}$

Remember that

$csc(\theta)=\frac{1}{sin(\theta)}$

therefore

$sin(\theta)=\frac{2}{3}$

step 2

Find the $cos(\theta)$

we know that

$sin^{2}(\theta) +cos^{2}(\theta)=1$

we have

$sin(\theta)=\frac{2}{3}$

substitute

$(\frac{2}{3})^{2} +cos^{2}(\theta)=1$

$\frac{4}{9} +cos^{2}(\theta)=1$

$cos^{2}(\theta)=1-\frac{4}{9}$

$cos^{2}(\theta)=\frac{5}{9}$

square root both sides

$cos(\theta)=\pm\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}$

we have that

$cos(\theta) < 0$ ---> given problem

$cos(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}$

step 3

Find the $tan(\theta)$

we know that

$tan(\theta)=\frac{sin(\theta)}{cos(\theta)}$

we have

$sin(\theta)=\frac{2}{3}$

$cos(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}$

substitute

$tan(\theta)=\frac{2}{3}:-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}=-\frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}$

Simplify

$tan(\theta)=-\frac{2\sqrt{5}}{5}$

Find the distance between the points given.<br><br> (-3, 2) and (9, -3)

g100num [7]

The distance will be given by the equation;
D= $\sqrt{( x_{1} - x_{2} )^{2} +( y_{1} - y_{2} )^{2} }$
D= $\sqrt{ (-3-9)^{2}+( 2--3)^{2} }$
D= $\sqrt{ (-12)^{2} + (5)^{2} }$
D= $\sqrt{169}$
D=13 units
