Mathematics
1 answer:
levacccp [35]2 years ago
4 0

\text{Given that,}\\\\\cot A = -\dfrac{9}{\sqrt{40}}\\\\\\\implies \tan A = -\dfrac{\sqrt{40}}9\\\\\\\implies \tan^2 A = \dfrac{40}{81}\\\\\\\implies \sec^2 A -1 = \dfrac{40}{81}\\\\\implies \sec^2 A = 1 + \dfrac{40}{81}\\\\\implies \sec^2 A = \dfrac{121}{81}\\\\\implies \sec A = \pm \sqrt{\dfrac{121}{81}}= \pm\dfrac{11}{9}\\\\\\\text{Since the angle A is in quadrant II, the value of sec A will be negative.}\\\\\\\text{Hence,}~ \sec A=-\dfrac{11}{9}

In AQRS, m2 Q = 63º, mZ R = 70°, and m2 S= 47°. Which side of AQRS is the
8090 [49]

Answer:

D. QR.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) in ΔQRS the side QR is opposite the angle S (47°); QS is opposite the angle R (70°); RS is opposite the angle Q (63°);

2) the rule is: greater angle is opposite the longer side;

3) according to the rule the angle 'S' is the smallest, then the side QR is the shortest.

Which statement is true about the graphed function?
Semmy [17]

A function is positive if it lies above the x axis.

This function is positive before x = -4, i.e. over the interval (-\infty, -4)

It is negative elsewhere, i.e. over the interval (-4, \infty)

So, the only correct option is the second one.
