If sin theta = 1/3 and tan theta < 0, what is the value of cos theta?
1 answer:
If sin Ф=1/3>0 and tan Ф<0; then Ф belongs to the second quadrant and cos Ф will be negative (cos Ф<0).
sin²Ф+cos²Ф=1
(1/3)²+cos²Ф=1
1/9+cos²Ф=1
cos²Ф=1-1/9
cos²Ф=8/9
cos Ф=⁺₋√(8/9)=⁺₋2√2 / 3
We have two possible solutions.
cos Ф=2√2 / 3 This solutions is not possible, because in this case cos Ф has to be negative (cos Ф<0)
cos Ф=(-2√2) / 3 this solutions is right.
answer:B. -2 square root 2 /3 (or (-2√2) /3 )

Answer:
x = 3
y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 2y = 7
y = -x + 1
x - 2y = 7
x - 2 ( -x + 1 ) = 7
3x - 2 = 7
3x = 9
x = 3
y = -x + 1
y = -3 + 1
y = -2
