Answer:

  • See below

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Step 1</h3>
  • 2/12 = 5/28
  • 2*28 = 12*5
  • 56 = 60

False equation

<h3>Step 2</h3>
  • No, because the cross products are not equal.
  • The proportion is not true, because 2/12 and 5/28 are not equivalent ratios.

<h3>Solution (1):</h3>

<u>We know that:</u>

  • Given proportion: 2:12 = 5:28

Step-by step calculations:

<u>Simplify the LHS:</u>

  • 2:12 = 5:28
  • => 1:6 = 5:28

Remember:<em> (a:b = c:d) = (a x d = b x c)</em>

<u>Use cross multiplication:</u>

  • => 1:6 = 5:28
  • => 28 = 30 (False)
<h3>Solution (2):</h3>
  • No, because the cross products are not equivalent.
  • The proportion is not true, because 2/12 and 5/28 are not equivalent ratios.

(1+siny)(1+sin(-y))=cos^2y\\\\L=(1+siny)(1-siny)=1^2-sin^2y=1-sin^2y=cos^2y\\\\R=cos^2y\\\\L=R

For which value of theta is sin theta equals -1?
Olin [163]

Answer:

The value of Ф is 3π/2

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the angle Ф in the four quadrant

∵ r = √(x² + y²) ⇒ square the two sides

∴ x² + y² = r²

∵ r = 1

∴ x² + y² = 1

∵ cos² Ф + sin² Ф = 1

∵ x is the adjacent side to Ф and y is the opposite side to Ф

∴ x = cos Ф and y = sin Ф

- At point (1 , 0)

∵ x = 1 , y = 0

∴ cos Ф = 1 and sin Ф = 0

∵ The positive part of x-axis represents the angle 0 and 2π

∴ cos 0 and 2π are 1 and sin 0 and 2π are 0

- At point (0 , 1)

∵ x = 0 , y = 1

∴ cos Ф = 0 and sin Ф = 1

∵ The positive part of y-axis represent the angle π/2

∴ cos π/2 is 0 and sin π/2 is 1

- At point (-1 , 0)

∵ x = -1 , y = 0

∴ cos Ф = -1 and sin Ф = 0

∵ The negative part of x-axis represents the angle π

∴ cos π is -1 and sin π is 0

- At point (0 , -1)

∵ x = 0 , y = -1

∴ cos Ф = 0 and sin Ф = -1

∵ The negative part of y-axis represent the angle 3π/2

∴ cos 3π/2 is 0 and sin 3π/2 is 1

* For the value of Ф = 3π/2 is sin Ф = -1

Help !!!! rectangle pqrs has side lengths of 7 and 3 as shown on the grid below
Inessa05 [86]
Even though you have reflected this triangle, your side length would still be the same. Explanation: Reflection is when you take an object on your coordinate plain and put it somewhere else on the plain. So if side QR is 3 than side Q’R’ would also be 3. Hope this helps!
