Which of the following best explains why tan5π/6 ≠ tan5π/3​

Mathematics

Kobotan [32]3 years ago

Answer:

The angles do not have the same reference angle.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Angle 5π / 3 radians:

Convert radians to degrees: 5π/3 × 180° / π = 300°

300° is in the fourth quadrant

The reference angle for angles in the fourth quadrant is 360° - angle ⇒ 360° - 300° = 60°.

∴ The reference angle for this angle is 60°.

2) Angle 5π / 6 radians:

Convert radians to degrees: 5π/6 × 180° / π = 150°

150° is in the second quadrant

The reference angle for angles in the second quadrant is 180° - angle ⇒ 180° - 150° = 30°.

∴ The reference angle for this angle is 30°.

3) Conclusion:

Since the reference angles are different, the tangent ratios have different values.

tan (5π/3) = - tan(60°) = - √3

tan (5π/6) = - tan(30°) = - (√3)/3

Note that the tangent is negative in both second and fourth quadrants.

Answer:

  7π cm² ≈ 22.0 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The shaded area is the difference between the area of Circle B and the areas of Circle C and Circle O. That is, those white areas are subtracted from the area of Circle B to get the shaded area.

The formula for the area of a circle is

  A = πr²

Using this, we find ...

  Circle B area = π(3 cm)² = 9π cm²

  Circle C area = Circle O area = π(1 cm)² = π cm²

Then the shaded area is ...

  Shaded Area = Circle B area - Circle C area - Circle O area

  = (9π cm²) - (π cm²) - (π cm²)

  = 7π cm² ≈ 22 cm²
