Answers:

  • sin(θ) =  -15/17
  • cos(θ) = 8/17
  • tan(θ) =  -15/8
  • csc(θ) = -17/15
  • sec(θ) =  17/8
  • cot(θ) = -8/15

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

Explanation:

Refer to the diagram below. The point (8,-15) is in quadrant 4, which is the southeast quadrant. A right triangle forms where the hypotenuse goes from the origin to the terminal point in question. After applying the pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse is 17 units long.

Opposite the reference angle θ, greek letter theta, the side is -15. Usually negative lengths are not allowed and don't make any sense; however, I'm making this negative to ensure that sin(θ) ends up negative. This will help with other trig ratios as well.

So,

sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse

sin(θ) = -15/17

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

The cosine ratio will involve the adjacent and hypotenuse

cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse

cos(θ) = 8/17

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

Tangent is opposite over adjacent

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(θ) = -15/8

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

The functions csc(θ), sec(θ), and cot(θ) are the functions cosecant, secant, and cotangent in that order.

They represent the reciprocal of sine, cosine, and tangent in that order as well.

Eg: sec(θ) is the reciprocal of cos(θ)

This means,

  • csc(θ) = -17/15 which is the flip of sin(θ) = -15/17
  • sec(θ) = 17/8 which is the flip of cos(θ) = 8/17
  • cot(θ) = -8/15 which is the flip of tan(θ) = -15/8

As an alternative, you could also say

  • csc(θ) = hypotenuse/opposite = 17/(-15) = -17/15
  • sec(θ) = hypotenuse/adjacent = 17/8
  • cot(θ) = adjacent/opposite = -15/8

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

Here's a list of formulas that you can write down on a reference sheet

  • sin(θ) =  y/h
  • cos(θ) =  x/h
  • tan(θ) = y/x
  • csc(θ) = h/y
  • sec(θ) = h/x
  • cot(θ) = x/y

where h is the hypotenuse and h = sqrt(x^2+y^2). Notice that something like tan = y/x is the reciprocal of cot = x/y. The x and y refers to the coordinates of the terminal point given to you. Make sure to reduce all fractions as much as possible. In our case, none of the fractions can be reduced any further.

Answer:

The value x in the equation 50=14+x+7+2x-1 is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the length of one side of a triangle is 14 inches

Let a be the length of one side

Therefore a=14 inches

The length of second side in x+7 inches

Let b be the length of second side

b=x+7 inches.

The length of third side is 2x-1 inches

Let c be the length of third side

c=2x-1 inches

And perimeter of the triangle =50 inches

Perimeter of a triangle =a+b+c

Equation can be written as

50=14+x+7+2x-1

50=20+3x ( adding the like terms )

Rewritting as below

3x+20=50

3x+20-50=50-50

3x-30=0

3x-30+30=0+30

3x=30

x=\frac{30}{3}

Therefore x=10

The value of x is 10

which statement is true about the equation 3/4z-1/4z+3=2/4z+5. It has no solution. It has one solution. It has two solutions. It
kozerog [31]
3/4z - 1/4z + 3 = 2/4z + 5
3/4z - 1/4z - 2/4z = 5 - 3
2/4z - 2/4z = 2
0 ≠ 2

More help is appreciated:))
Lera25 [3.4K]

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to translate all the points to the right 3 and up 6

Therefore, you are going to use this formula:

(x,y) ⇾ (x + 3, y + 6)

This is the same format as the previous problem, if you have noticed.

Using this, plug in each coordinate, starting with  P (5, -1)

(5, -1) ⇾ ( 5 + 3, -1 + 6)

(5, -1) ⇾ ( 8, 5 )

P^{1} = (8, 5)

Now point Q, (0, 8)

(0, 8) ⇾ (0 + 3, 8 + 6)

(0, 8) ⇾ ( 3, 14 )

Q^{1} = (3, 14)

And last but not least, the point R, (7, 5)

(7, 5) ⇾ (7 + 3, 5 + 6)

(7, 5) ⇾ ( 10, 11 )

R^{1} = (10, 11)

Therefore, P^{1} = (8, 5), Q^{1} = (3, 14), R^{1} = (10, 11) is your answer. This is the 4th option or D.

Hope this for you to understand this a bit more! =D
