Given:

Right triangle XYZ has right angle Z.

\sin(x)=\dfrac{12}{13}

To find:

The value of \cos x.

Solution:

We know that,

\sin^2(x)+\cos^2(x)=1

\cos^2(x)=1-\sin^2(x)

\cos(x)=\pm\sqrt{1-\sin^2x}

For a triangle, all trigonometric ratios are positive. So,

\cos(x)=\sqrt{1-\sin^2x}

It is given that \sin(x)=\dfrac{12}{13}. After substituting this value in the above equation, we get

\cos(x)=\sqrt{1-(\dfrac{12}{13})^2}

\cos(x)=\sqrt{1-\dfrac{144}{169}}

\cos(x)=\sqrt{\dfrac{169-144}{169}}

\cos(x)=\sqrt{\dfrac{25}{169}}

On further simplification, we get

\cos(x)=\dfrac{\sqrt{25}}{\sqrt{169}}

\cos(x)=\dfrac{5}{13}

Therefore, the required value is \cos(x)=\dfrac{5}{13}.

Trash Cans: Elliot's family has a cylinder shaped trash can. It takes the family a few days to fill the trash can up. Elliot wan
Elza [17]

The volume of cylinder shaped trash can is 4698 cubic inches, if the trash can has a height of 24.90 inches and a diameter of 15.50 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

                  Trash can has a height of 24.90 inches

                  Diameter of 15.50 inches

Step:1

                Formula to calculate the volume of cylinder,

                              Volume, V = \pi r^{2} h.............................(1)

               Where, r - radius of cylinder

                           h - Height of cylinder

               From given,

                          h - 24.90 inches

                          D - 15.50 inches

                Diameter to radius conversion,

                                   Radius, r = \frac{d}{2}

                                                   = \frac{15.50}{2}

                                                r = 7.75 inches

              Equation (1) becomes,

                                                V = \pi (7.75^{2} )(24.90)

                                                    = \pi (60.0625)(24.90)

                                                    =\pi (1495.556)

                                                    =(3.1416) (1495.556)           (∵ \pi = 3.1416 )

                                                    = 4698.42

                                                   ≅ 4698 cubic inches

           Volume of trash can, V = 4698 cubic inches

Result:

             The volume of cylinder shaped trash can is 4698 cubic inches, if the trash can has a height of 24.90 inches and a diameter of 15.50 inches.
