\bf sin^{-1}(some\ value)=\theta \impliedby \textit{this simply means}
\\\\\\
sin(\theta )=some\ value\qquad \textit{now, also bear in mind that}
\\\\\\
sin(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{hypotenuse}\qquad 
\qquad 
% tangent
tan(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{adjacent}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\

\bf sin^{-1}\left( \frac{2}{5} \right)=\theta \impliedby \textit{this simply means that}
\\\\\\
sin(\theta )=\cfrac{2}{5}\cfrac{\leftarrow opposite}{\leftarrow hypotenuse}\qquad \textit{now let's find the adjacent side}
\\\\\\
\textit{using the pythagorean theorem}\\\\
c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \pm\sqrt{c^2-b^2}=a\qquad 
\begin{cases}
c=hypotenuse\\
a=adjacent\\
b=opposite\\
\end{cases}

\bf \pm \sqrt{5^2-2^2}=a\implies \pm\sqrt{21}=a
\\\\\\
\textit{we don't know if it's +/-, so we'll assume is the + one}\quad \sqrt{21}=a\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
tan(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{adjacent}\qquad \qquad tan(\theta)=\cfrac{2}{\sqrt{21}}
\\\\\\
\textit{and now, let's rationalize the denominator}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{2}{\sqrt{21}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{21}}{\sqrt{21}}\implies \cfrac{2\sqrt{21}}{(\sqrt{21})^2}\implies \cfrac{2\sqrt{21}}{21}

A. ( x + 5)<br><br>B. ( x - 5 )<br><br>C. ( x + 3 )<br><br>D. ( x - 3 )
Blababa [14]

Answer:

(x + 5) B. (x - 5) C. (x + 3) D. (x - 3) = = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The calculator performs basic and advanced operations with fractions, expressions with fractions combined with integers, decimals, and mixed numbers. It also shows detailed step-by-step information about the fraction calculation procedure. Solve problems with two, three, or more fractions and numbers in one expression.

Rules for expressions with fractions:

Fractions - use the slash “/” between the numerator and denominator, i.e., for five-hundredths, enter 5/100. If you are using mixed numbers, be sure to leave a single space between the whole and fraction part.

The slash separates the numerator (number above a fraction line) and denominator (number below).

Mixed numerals (mixed fractions or mixed numbers) write as non-zero integer separated by one space and fraction i.e., 1 2/3 (having the same sign). An example of a negative mixed fraction: -5 1/2.

Because slash is both signs for fraction line and division, we recommended use colon (:) as the operator of division fractions i.e., 1/2 : 3.

Decimals (decimal numbers) enter with a decimal point . and they are automatically converted to fractions - i.e. 1.45.

The colon : and slash / is the symbol of division. Can be used to divide mixed numbers 1 2/3 : 4 3/8 or can be used for write complex fractions i.e. 1/2 : 1/3.

An asterisk * or × is the symbol for multiplication.

Plus + is addition, minus sign - is subtraction and ()[] is mathematical parentheses.

The exponentiation/power symbol is ^ - for example: (7/8-4/5)^2 = (7/8-4/5)2
