Answer:

cos theta is -0.866

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the range as between 90 and 180 degrees (pi is the same as 180 degrees)

The quadrant we are considering here is the 2nd quadrant

Mathematically;

if sin theta = 0.5

theta = arc•sin 0.5

theta = 30 degrees

The angle on the second quadrant is of the likes;

180-theta

so we have 180-30

and that is 150 degrees

cos (150) is thus; -0.866

Helpppp<br> Solve for x.
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

x = 28.744

Step-by-step explanation:

Seeing as this is a right triangle, and you're given an angle, an unknown measurement to the opposite side, and the measure of the adjacent side. You can use trig functions. In this case, tangent, because you are given the opposite and adjacent, and tangent covers opposite/adjacent.

Tan(32)=x/46

Tan(32)46=x

28.744=x

What is the vertex of the graph y = x^2 + 6x - 5 ?
Dafna11 [192]
Given:  <span>y = x^2 + 6x - 5.  Then a = 1, b = 6 and c = -5.

The x-coord. of the vertex is given by x = -b / (2a), which here is x = -6 / (2*1) = -3.

Use the given formula </span><span>y = x^2 + 6x - 5 to find the value of y when x = -3:

y = (-3)^2 + 6(-3) - 5 = 9 - 18 - 5 = -14

Then the vertex is (-3, -14).</span>
