Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

m<K = 71°

arc JL = 16x - 2

m<k = ½(arc JL) => inscribed angles theorem

Substitute

71 = ½(16x - 2)

Multiply both sides by 2

71*2 = 16x - 2

142 = 16x - 2

Add 2 to both sides

142 + 2 = 16x - 2 + 2

144 = 16x

Divide both sides by 16

144/16 = 16x/16

9 = x

x = 9

If sin x = .42, what is cos x?

34kurt

From the identity,
sin^2(x)+cos^2(x)=1
then
cos(x)=sqrt(1-sin^2(x))
where sin(x) is given as 0.42.

Note that the above answer applies to 0<x<90 degrees
