Answer:

(x,-y): (2,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

M=(x+x)/2,(y+y)/2

Given (1,4)=

\frac{3x - 4}{2}

This implies:

1 =  \frac{3x - 4}{2}

3x - 4 = 2 \\ 3x = 2 + 4 \\  \frac{3x }{3}  =  \frac{6}{3}  \\ x = 2

In a similar way,

4 =  \frac{ - 2 + 5y}{2}  \\  - 2 + 5y = 8 \\ 5y = 10 \\ y = 2

The question demanded (x,-y)

Hence(2,-2) is the answer

F sin Θ = 5/6 , what are the values of cos Θ and tan Θ?
strojnjashka [21]
We can use inverse sin to calculate the angle, and we get around 56 degrees (but for the answer I'll give the most accurate one). For cos we get around 55, and for tan we get .25. 

I might have done tan wrong but I hope you get the point.
