Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the picture.
ΔADC and ΔCDB are similar. Therefore the sides are in proportion:
We have
Substitute:
<em>cross multiply</em>
For x use the Pythagorean theorem:
Answer:
6x - 24
Step-by-step explanation:
6(x-4) .....
Multiply the parentheses by 6:
6x - 6 x 4
Multiply the numbers:
6x - 24
Answer:
r = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for r, plug in the change in x values and change in y values, since the hypotenuse is simply the diagonal of both the y-coordinate and x-coordinates shown via drawing legs on the vertical and horizontal axis. So, since (0,0) is the initial point, r = sqr[(-4-0)^2 + (-3-0)^2 = sqr(16 + 9) = 5.
Now, the angle theta is the angle in which the sine, cosine, and tangent ratios are found. Simply use opposite over hypotenuse for sine, adjacent over hypotenuse for cosine, and opposite over adjacent for tangent using theta as the angle in which these values are obtained.
