They are used for making the sides of a triangle into a ratio. Sine is opposite of the angle divide by the hypotenuse, cosine is adjacent divided by the hypotenuse, and tangent is the opposite divided by the adjacent. Sine is the y-component, cosine is the x-component, and tangent is the ratio of sine/cosine or can also be considered the slope.
Answer:
A. -2
B. -10
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of a perpendicular line will be the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line:
-1/(1/2) = -2 . . . . slope of the perpendicular line
__
The y-intercept will let the given point satisfy the equation ...
y = -2x +b
2 = -2(-6) +b
-10 = b . . . . . . . subtract 12. This is the y-intercept.
_____
The graph shows the two lines and the points they go through.
Y=29
x+y+78=180
x+29+78=180
x=180-78-29
x=73
z=180-73
z=107
x=73 degrees
y=28 degrees
z=107 degrees
Answer:
theta = 24.4 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a right triangle.
sin theta = opp/ hyp
sin theta = 33/80
Take the inverse of each side
sin^-1 sin(theta) = sin^-1 (33/80)
theta =24.36197794
To the nearest tenth
theta = 24.4 degrees
