Answer:

cos A= 9/41 and tan A is 40/9

Step-by-step explanation:

SOHCAHTOA.

Sine = opposite/hypotenuse

Cosine=adjacent/hypotenuse

Tangent=opposite/adjacent

Let's go back to your problem

41 sin A = 40

To get sin A by itself, divide both sides of the equation by 41. You get sin A = 40/41. As sine = opposite/hypotenuse, 40 will be the leg and 41 will be the hypotenuse. What is the value of the other leg?

Use the pythagorean theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a^2 + 40^2 = 41^2

a^2 + 1600 = 1681

a^2 = 81

a=9

This is a 9-40-41 right triangle

Now, solve cos A

cos=adjacent/hypotenuse

cos=9/41

Finally, solve for tan A

tan=opposite/adjacent

tan=40/9

Hope this helps :)

A man sold a fan for Rs. 400. Find the cost price if he incurred a loss of 15%.

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

Cost price of the fan is $\text {Rs. 470.59}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A man sold a fan for $\text{Rs.}\:400$ . He incurred a loss of $15\%$ .

To find: The cost price of the fan

Solution:

We have,

Selling price, S.P., of the fan $= \text{Rs.} 400$

Loss $=15\%$

We know that $\text {Loss\%}=\frac{\text{C.P.-S.P.}}{\text{C.P.}}\times100\%$

Now let the C.P. of the fan be $\text{Rs.} \:x$

So, $15=(\frac{x-400}{x})\times 100$

$\implies 15x=100x-40000$

$\implies 100x-15x=40000$

$\implies 85x=40000$

$\implies x=\frac{40000}{85}$

$\implies x= 470.59$

Hence, the cost price of the fan is $\text {Rs. 470.59}$ .

Which graph represents the function f (x) = StartFraction 2 x minus 1 Over x minus 1 EndFraction?

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

The correct description of the graph:

<em>"One curve opens up and to the right in quadrant 1, and the other curve down and to the left in </em><em>quadrants </em><em>2, 1, and 4."</em>

<h3>Which graph is the graph of the given functions?</h3>

Here we have the function:

$f(x) = \frac{2x - 1}{x - 1}$

The graph of this function can be seen below:

Then we can see that a curve opens up on quadrant 1, and down on quadrants 2 and 3 (it pass throw quadrant 1 for a little bit).

Then the correct option is:

<em>"One curve opens up and to the right in </em><em>quadrant </em><em>1, and the other curve down and to the left in </em><em>quadrants </em><em>2, 1, and 4."</em>

Christine worked from 8:15 AM to 11:50 AM, went to lunch, then worked from 12:45 PM to 5:15 PM on Monday through Friday of this

velikii [3]

The equation illustrated shows that the gross pay will be $97.

<h3>How to compute the value?</h3>

It should be noted that she earns an hourly rate of $17.15 and receives time and a half for overtime. The number of hours will be 3 hours 35 minutes at first. This will be:

= (17.15 × 3.58)

= 61.5

The amount for overtime will be:

= (1/2 × 17.15) × 4.5

= 35.59

The Total amount will be:

= 61.5 + 35.59

= $97
