Answer:

* sin Ф = -15/17     * cos Ф = 8/17      * tan Ф = -15/8

* csc Ф = -17/15    * sec Ф = 17/8      * cot Ф = -8/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets revise the trigonometric function of angle Ф

- Angle θ is in standard position

- Point  (8, -15) is on the terminal ray of angle θ

- That means the terminal is the hypotenuse of a right triangle x and y

  are its legs

∵ x-coordinate is positive and y-coordinate is negative

∴ angle Ф lies in the 4th quadrant

- The opposite side of angle Ф is the y-coordinate of the point on the

  terminal ray of angle Ф and the adjacent side to angle Ф is the

  x-coordinate of that point

∵ The length of the hypotenuse (h) = √(x² + y²)

∴ h = √[(8)² + (-15)²] = √[64 + 225] = √[289] = 17

∴ The length of the hypotenuse is 17

- Lets find sin Ф

∵ sin Ф = opposite/hypotenuse

∵ The opposite is y = -15

∵ The hypotenuse = 17

∴ sin Ф = -15/17

- Lets find cos Ф

∵ cos Ф = adjacent/hypotenuse

∵ The adjacent is x = 8

∵ The hypotenuse = 17

∴ cos Ф = 8/17

- Lets find tan Ф

∵ tan Ф = opposite/adjacent

∵ The opposite is y = -15

∵ The adjacent = 8

∴ tan Ф = -15/8

- Remember csc Ф is the reciprocal of sin Ф

∵ csc Ф = 1/sin Ф

∵ sin Ф = -15/17

∴ csc Ф = -17/15

- Remember sec Ф is the reciprocal of cos Ф

∵ sec Ф = 1/ cos Ф

∵ cos Ф = 8/17

∴ sec Ф = 17/8

- Remember cot Ф is the reciprocal of tan Ф

∵ cot Ф = 1/tan Ф

∵ tan Ф = -15/8

∴ cot Ф = -8/15

Is anyone good at paralleligram?!I will mark brainlest.for 13 points​
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

Y= 15

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so the sides that are across from eachother, are always equal to eachother, in a parallelogram.

So, 5y-20 = 2y + 25

Next, you add 20 to both sides, and then subtract 2 from the right side, and subtract 2 from the left side ,and you get 3y = 45

divide 45 by 3 , and you get 15.

DO the same thing for the X's.

Bacteria vary somewhat in size, but a diameter of 1.5 μ m is not unusual.
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

a) 1.8 × 10^-12 cm³ or 1.8 × 10^-12 cubic meters

b) 7.1 × 10^-6 mm² or 7.1 × 10^-6 square millimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We are assuming that the shape of the bacteria is a sphere.

Hence, Volume of the Sphere(Bacteria) = 4/3 × π × r³

Diameter = 1.5 μm

Radius = Diameter/2 = 1.5μm/2

= 0.75μm

We are told that the volume should be in cubic centimeters

Converting 0.75μm to centimeters

1 μm = 1 × 10^-4 cm

0.75 μm =

Cross Multiply

= 0.75 μm × 1 × 10^-4 cm/ 1 μm

= 0.000075cm

Volume of the Sphere(Bacteria) = 4/3 × π × r³

= 4/3 × π × (0.000075)³

= 1.767145867 × 10^-12 cm³

Approximately as 2 significant figures = 1.8 × 10^-12 cm³

b) The formula for the Surface area of a Sphere = 4πr²

Diameter = 1.5 μm

Radius = Diameter/2 = 1.5μm/2

= 0.75μm

We are told that the surface area should be in square millimeters

Converting 0.75μm to millimeters

1 μm = 0.001 mm

0.75 μm =

Cross Multiply

= 0.75 μm ×0.001mm/ 1 μm

= 0.00075mm

Surface Area of a Sphere

= 4 × π × r²

= 4 × π × 0.00075²

= 7.06858 ×10^-6 mm²

Approximately to 2 significant figures

= 7.1 × 10^-6 mm²

STALIN [3.7K]

Hey!

-----------------------------------------

Answer: Yes 3/6 is rational!

-----------------------------------------

Why? Well, because 3 and 6 are integers that don't repeat. 3/6 simplifies to 1/2 or 0.5 which doesn't repeat so it's rational.

-----------------------------------------

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!

The degree of 4 – x2
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the given is x^2 then the degree is 2.

Degree: 4 - x^2 = 2.

It is what is on the x to the highest power. If the question was

x^3 - 3x^2 + 2x + 4

The the degree would be 3
