Calcula en cada caso las restantes razones trigonométricas de un angulo agudo si se conoce que:
olchik [2.2K]
A) cos a = (√22)/5; tan a = (√66)/22
B) sin a = (2√2)/3; tan a = 2√2
C) sin a = (√30)/6; cos a = (√6)/6
D) sin a = 3/5; tan a = 3/4
E) sin a = (5√26)/26; cos a = (√26)/26
F) sin a = 3/5; tan a = 3/4

Explanation
The ratio for sine is opposite/hypotenuse.  This means the side opposite the angle is √3 and the hypotenuse is 5.  Using the Pythagorean theorem to find the adjacent side,
(√3)² + A² = 5²
3+A² = 25
A² = 22
A=√22
This means that cos a = adjacent/hypotenuse = (√22)/5 and tan a = opposite/adjacent = (√3)/(√22) = (√66)/22.
B)  The ratio for cosine is adjacent/hypotenuse; this means the side adjacent to the angle is 1 and the hypotenuse is 3.  Using the Pythagorean theorem to find the side opposite the angle (p),
1² + p² = 3²
1+p² = 9
p² = 8
p=√8 = 2√2
This means that sin a = opposite/hypotenuse = (2√2)/3 and tan a = opposite/adjacent = (2√2)/1 = 2√2.
C) The ratio for tangent is opposite/adjacent; this means that the side opposite the angle is √5 and the side adjacent the angle is 1.  Using the Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse,
(√5)²+1² = H²
5+1=H²
6=H²
√6 = H
This means that sin a = opposite/hypotenuse = (√5)/(√6) = (√30)/6 and cos a = adjacent/hypotenuse = 1/(√6) = (√6)/6.
D)  The ratio for cosine is adjacent/hypotenuse; this means that the side adjacent the angle is 4 and the hypotenuse is 5.  Using the Pythagorean theorem to find the side opposite the angle, p:
4²+p²=5²
16+p²=25
p²=9
p=3
This means that sin a = opposite/hypotenuse = 3/5 and tan a = opposite/adjacent = 3/4.
E)  The ratio for tangent is opposite/adjacent;; this means that the side opposite the angle is 5 and the side adjacent the angle is 1.  Using the Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse,
5²+1²=H²
25+1=H²
26=H²
√26 = H
This means that sin a = opposite/hypotenuse = 5/(√26) = (5√26)/26 and cos a = adjacent/hypotenuse = 1/(√26) = √26/26.
F) 0.8 = 8/10; The ratio for cosine is adjacent/hypotenuse.  This means that the side adjacent the angle is 8 and the hypotenuse is 10.  Using the Pythagorean theorem to find the side opposite the angle, p:
8²+p² = 10²
64+p² = 100
p² = 36
p=6
This means that sin a = opposite/hypotenuse = 6/10 = 3/5 and tan a = opposite/adjacent = 6/8 = 3/4.

It takes 12 hours for a single hose to fill a large vat. When a second hose is added, the vat can be filled in 4 hours. How many
aksik [14]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

6 hours

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

The two hoses together take 1/3 the time (4/12 = 1/3), so the two hoses together are equivalent to 3 of the first hose.

That is, the second hose is equivalent to 2 of the first hose. Two of the first hose could fill the vat in half the time one of them can, so 6 hours.

The second hose alone can fill the vat in 6 hours.

_____

The first hose's rate of doing work is ...

... (1 vat)/(12 hours) = (1/12) vat/hour

If h is the second hose's rate of doing work, then working together their rate is ...

... (1/12 vat/hour) + h = (1/4 vat/hour)

... h = (1/4 - 1/12) vat/hour = (3/12 -1/12) vat/hour = 2/12 vat/hour

... h = 1/6 vat/hour

so will take 6 hours to fill 1 vat.

five consecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence have a sum of 40. The product of the middle and the two end terms is 224. Find
ratelena [41]
Let the five terms be: a, a + d, a + 2d, a + 3d, a + 4d, then
a + a + d + a + 2d + a + 3d + a + 4d = 5a + 15d = 40
i.e. a + 3d = 8
Also, (a + 2d)(a + 3d)(a + 4d) = 224
(a + 3d - d)(a + 3d)(a + 3d + d) = 224
(8 - d)(8)(8 + d) = 224
(8 - d)(8 + d) = 224/8 = 28
64 - d^2 = 28
d^2 = 64 - 28 = 36
d = sqrt(36) = 6
But a + 3d = 8
a + 3(6) = 8
a = 8 - 18 = -10

Therefore, the term of the sequence is: -10, -10 + 6, -10 + 2(6), -10 + 3(6), -10 + 4(6)
= -10, -4, -10 + 12, -10 + 18, -10 + 24
= -10, -4, 2, 8, 14

I need help understanding square roots
Vlad [161]

I wonder if you mean to write \sqrt[3]{256} in place of 3\sqrt{256}...

If you meant what you wrote, then we have

\sqrt{256}=\sqrt{16^2}=16

3\sqrt{256}=3\cdot16=48

If you meant to write \sqrt[3]{256} (the cube root of 256), then we could go on to have

\sqrt[3]{256}=\sqrt[3]{16^2}=\sqrt[3]{(4^2)^2}=\sqrt[3]{4^4}=\sqrt[3]{4^3\cdot4}=4\sqrt[3]4
