Find sin theta if cot theta = -2 and cos theta < 0

Mathematics
1 answer:
Katarina [22]2 years ago
6 0

cot(<em>θ</em>) = cos(<em>θ</em>)/sin(<em>θ</em>)

So if both cot(<em>θ</em>) and cos(<em>θ</em>) are negative, that means sin(<em>θ</em>) must be positive.

Recall that

cot²(<em>θ</em>) + 1 = csc²(<em>θ</em>) = 1/sin²(<em>θ</em>)

so that

sin²(<em>θ</em>) = 1/(cot²(<em>θ</em>) + 1)

sin(<em>θ</em>) = 1 / √(cot²(<em>θ</em>) + 1)

Plug in cot(<em>θ</em>) = -2 and solve for sin(<em>θ</em>) :

sin(<em>θ</em>) = 1 / √((-2)² + 1)

sin(<em>θ</em>) = 1/√(5)

What will be the unit digit of the square of 7992​
Alina [70]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Here you need not completely solve 7992 squared. You can just take the last digit which in this case is 2 and solve for the square of that digit. 2 x 2 = 4. Now if it was a bigger digit which would result in a two digit number when squared you would take the last digit of that number. But, we don't need to do that here since 2 squared is 4.

HELP PLEASE!!!! I NEED HELP WITH GEOMETRY!!!
lesya692 [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

m < QRS = m < URS + m < QRU

30x - 4 = 60° + 15x - 4

15x = 60°

X = 4°

<u>m < QRS</u> = 30 * 4 - 4 = <u>116°</u>
