Why is tangent negative in the second quadrant?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Oksi-84 [34.3K]3 years ago
3 0

The tangent function is the ratio of "opposite side" to "adjacent side."  It so happens that the "adjacent side" is negative in Quadrants II and III, whereas the "opposite side" is positive.  A positive quantity divided by a negative one produces a negative result; hence, the tangent function is negative in Quadrant II.

Oksana_A [137]

A =πr2

Π  = 3.14

r = ½diameter = 25/2 =12.5 inches

∴ Area = 3.14 × 12.5 × 12.5 square inches

  Area = 490.625 square inches

What would my GPA be? Here are my grades.
marta [7]
That is approximately, in order, a C, a C, a B, a D, an A, a B, and an A.

In grade points that is a 2, a 2, a 3, a 1, a 4, a 3, and a 4.

The average of those numbers is about 2.7, so you have a 2.7.

You can raise that by bringing up the D as it is an outlier here.
