Answer: z = $\sqrt{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find z, you must set up a proportion to solve.

To find the altitude of a special right triangle, the formula is:

$\frac{a}{x} =\frac{x}{b}$

You can use 5 as a and 2 as b to complete the proportion:

$\frac{5}{z} =\frac{z}{2}$

Next, to solve:

Step 1: Cross-multiply.

$\frac{5}{z} =\frac{z}{2}$

(5)*(2) = z*z

10 = z²

Step 2: Take square root.

10 = z²

√10 = z

I hope this helps!

The angle θ 1 is located in Quadrant IV, and cos ⁡ ( θ 1 ) = 9/ 19 , theta, start subscript, 1, end subscript, right parenthesis

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

$sin\theta_1 = - \frac{2\sqrt{70}}{19}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that $\theta_1$ is in fourth quadrant.

$cos\theta_1$ is always positive in 4th quadrant and

$sin\theta_1$ is always negative in 4th quadrant.

Also, we know the following identity about $sin\theta$ and $cos\theta$ :

$sin^2\theta + cos^2\theta = 1$

Using \theta_1 in place of \theta:

$sin^2\theta_1 + cos^2\theta_1 = 1$

We are given that $cos\theta_1 = \frac{9}{19}$

$\Rightarrow sin^2\theta_1 + \dfrac{9^2}{19^2} = 1\\\Rightarrow sin^2\theta_1 = 1 - \dfrac{81}{361}\\\Rightarrow sin^2\theta_1 = \dfrac{361-81}{361}\\\Rightarrow sin^2\theta_1 = \dfrac{280}{361}\\\Rightarrow sin\theta_1 = \sqrt{\dfrac{280}{361}}\\\Rightarrow sin\theta_1 = +\dfrac{2\sqrt{70}}{19}, -\dfrac{2\sqrt{70}}{19}$

$\theta_1$ is in 4th quadrant so $sin\theta_1$ is negative.

So, value of $sin\theta_1 = - \frac{2\sqrt{70}}{19}$

How the transformations of the functions f(x)=15tanx and g(x)=tanx+15 differ?

Irina-Kira [14]

The transformation of f(x)=15tanx would be achieved by dilating y=tanx graph 15 times. This transformation will cause y'=15 y. This will increase the value of dilation become 15 times of the original

The transformation of g(x)=15tanx would be achieved by shifting y=tanx graph 15 right. This transformation will cause x'=x+15. This will change the value from tan x into tan(x+15)
