36 * 7  gives you the number of nails in the whole pounds
36 * 2/3 gives you the fraction part

7 * 36 = 252
2/3 * 36 = 24

Total nails = 252 + 24 = 276 nails

So 81/9=9 so area of pantry is 9

3 times x=9
3x=9
divide both sides by 3
x=3

Given: cosθ= -4/5 , sin x = -12/13 , θ is in the third quadrant, and x is in the fourth quadrant; evaluate tan 1/2 θ
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you're looking for what the half angle of the tangent of theta is, I'm a bit confused as to why you think the angle in the 4th quadrant, x, is relevant.  But maybe you don't know it isn't and it's a "trick" to throw you off.  Hmm...

Anyways, the half angle identity for tangent is

tan(\frac{\theta}{2})=\frac{sin\theta}{1+cos\theta}

There are actually 3 identities for the tangent of a half angle, but this one works just as well as either of the others do, so I'm going with this one.  

If theta is in QIII, the value of -4 goes along the x axis and the hypotenuse is 5.  That makes the missing side, by Pythagorean's Theorem, -3.  Filling in our formula:

tan(\frac{\theta}{2})=\frac{-\frac{3}{5} }{1+(-\frac{4}{5}) } which simplifies a bit to

tan(\frac{\theta}{2})=\frac{-\frac{3}{5} }{\frac{5}{5} -\frac{4}{5} }  and a bit more to

tan(\frac{\theta}{2})=\frac{-\frac{3}{5} }{\frac{1}{5} }

Bring up the lower fraction and flip it to divide to get

tan(\frac{\theta}{2})=-\frac{3}{5}*\frac{5}{1} which of course simplifies to

-3.  Choice A.

How do defined terms and undefined terms relate to each other ?
dalvyx [7]
<span>In geometry, definitions are formed using known words or terms to describe a new word. There are three words in geometry that are not formally defined. These three undefined terms are point, line and plane. Undefined terms have not been defined, and defined are answered. They are terms that have a relationship with the point od discussion. :)</span>
