Simora [160]4 years ago

Cosθ is 3/5 because the cosine is found from the adjacent side of the triangle being divided by the hypotenuse. The sine is found by putting the opposite side from θ over the hypotenuse. If you draw this triangle out, the side across from θ would be 4 and the hypotenuse 5. In order to find the opposite side, you could either solve with the pythagorean theorem (a^2+b^2= c^2) or you could remember the properties of a triangle, therefore the final side is 3. You then put the opposite, 3, over the hypotenuse,5, in order to get 3/5 for the cosθ.

Answer:

cosθ =  \frac{3}{5} .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : If sinθ =4/5 .

To find :  cosθ = _____.

Solution : We have given that sinθ =4/5 .

By the trigonometric identity

cos²θ + sin²θ = 1.

Plugging the value of sinθ =4/5 .

cos²θ + (\frac{4}{5}) ^{2} = 1.

cos²θ + \frac{16}{25} = 1.

On subtracting  \frac{16}{25}  from both sides

cos²θ = 1 -  \frac{16}{25} .

cos²θ =  \frac{25 -16}{25} .

Taking square root both sides.

\sqrt{cos^{2}theta}  = \sqrt{\frac{9}{25}} .

cosθ =  \frac{3}{5} .

Therefore, cosθ =  \frac{3}{5} .

If 3^2x+1 = 3^x+5 what is the value of X
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the base is the same, 3, you can just get rid of it using the principles of log. What you're left with is:

2x + 1 = x + 5

Now just solve for x:

2x - x = 5 - 1

x = 4

Evaluate summation of negative quantity n minus 5 end quantity from n equals 2 to 8
nydimaria [60]
One way of doing it is by using the properties of summing things, like factoring out the minus sign: <span><span>∑<span>n=2</span>8</span><span>−(n−5)</span>=−<span>∑<span>n=2</span>8</span><span>(n−5)


</span></span> and splitting it up into two parts and again factor <span>=−<span>(<span><span>∑<span>n=2</span>8</span><span>n−5<span>∑<span>n=2</span>8</span>1</span></span>)


</span></span> The last sum is just counting how many numbers there are from 2 to 8, which is 7 (you can do it on your fingers). The first one can be calculated fast if we are clever and use this identity:

<span><span>∑<span>n=1</span>m</span>n=<span><span>m(m+1)</span>2


</span></span> So what we get is <span><span>=−<span>(<span>−1+<span><span>8(8+1)</span>2</span>−7</span>)</span>=8−72/2=8−36=−28.</span></span>
