Number of books in non fiction section  = 200

Number of books in fiction section  = 800

Number of books in reference section  = 850

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of books in the library = 1850

Let us assume, number of books in non fiction section = m

Number of books in fiction section= 4 x Number of books in non  fiction

= 4  x  (m)

So, the number of books in reference section = 650 + m

Now, Total Number of books =  Number of { Fiction + Non- Fiction + Reference} Books

or,  1850 =  m + (4 m)  + 650 + m

or, 6 m + 650 = 1850

⇒ 6 m = 1850 - 650 = 1200

or, m = 1200 / 6 = 200  

⇒ m = 200

Hence, the number of books in non fiction section  = 200

Number of books in fiction section  =  4 m = 4 x 200 = 800

Number of books in reference section = 650 + m  = 200 + 650 = 850

THE FUNCTION ARCSINE CAN ALSO BE DEFINED AS?
vodomira [7]
The arcsine, \sin^{-1}, is the inverse of the \sin function. This means that it takes as <em>inputs </em>what would usually be <em>outputs </em>for the \sin function and produces as <em>outputs </em>what would usually be <em>inputs </em>for the \sin function.

This can be particularly useful when you're trying to find an angle on a right triangle, but you've only been given the lengths of the sides. To find any angle \theta in a right triangle, just take \sin^{-1} \frac{o}{h}, where o is the side opposite \theta and h is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

If p=(-3,-2) and q=(1,6) are the endpoints of the diameter of a circle find the equation of the circle
stira [4]

Answer:

<em>The equation of the circle   (x +1) )² +(y-(2))² = (2(√5))²</em>

<em>   or </em>

<em>The equation of the circle    x² + 2 x + y² - 4 y  = 15</em>

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Given points end  Points are p(-3,-2) and q( 1,6)

<em>The distance of two points formula</em>

P Q = \sqrt{x_{2} - x_{1})^{2} + ((y_{2} -y_{1})^{2}   }

P Q = \sqrt{1 - (-3)^{2} + ((6 -(-2))^{2}   }

P Q = \sqrt{16+64} = \sqrt{80}

<em>The diameter 'd' = 2 r</em>

                       2 r = √80

                            = \sqrt{16 X 5}

                           = 4 \sqrt{5}

                     <em> r =  2√5</em>

<em>Mid-point of two end points </em>

<em>                        </em>(\frac{x_{1} + x_{2} }{2} , \frac{y_{1} +y_{2} }{2} ) = (\frac{-3+1}{2} ,\frac{-2 +6}{2} )<em></em>

<em>                                               = (-1 ,2)</em>

<em>Mid-point of two end points = center of the circle</em>

<em>                                     (h,k) = (-1 , 2)</em>

                 

The equation of the circle

           (x -h )² +(y-k)² = r²

<em>          (x -(-1) )² +(y-(2))² = (2(√5))²</em>

<em>         x² + 2 x + 1 + y² - 4 y + 4 = 20</em>

<em>          x² + 2 x + y² - 4 y  = 20 -5</em>

<em>           x² + 2 x + y² - 4 y  = 15</em>

<u><em>Final answer</em></u><em>:-</em>

<em>The equation of the circle   (x +1) )² +(y-(2))² = (2(√5))²</em>

<em>   or </em>

<em>The equation of the circle    x² + 2 x + y² - 4 y  = 15</em>

<em>                  </em>
