If sin Θ = 2 over 3 and tan Θ < 0, what is the value of cos Θ?square root 5 over 2

negative square root of 5

square root of 5 over 3

negative square root of 5 over 3

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: if sin Θ is positive and tan Θ is negative, then the angle should be in the second quadrant using the rule of thumb. In this case, cos Θ is expected to be negative. Using the calculator, the answer is -0.7454. This is equivalent to option D. negative square root of 5 over 3
Answer 2
Answer:

If sin Θ = 2 over 3 and tan Θ < 0, then the value of cos Θ = - (√5) / 3

Further explanation

Firstly , let us learn about trigonometry in mathematics.

Suppose the ΔABC is a right triangle and ∠A is 90°.

sin ∠A = opposite / hypotenuse

cos ∠A = adjacent / hypotenuse

tan ∠A = opposite / adjacent

Let us now tackle the problem!

If \sin \theta = 2 / 3 , then :

\text{opposite = 2}

\text{hypotenuse = 3}

We can calculate adjacent by using Pythagorean theorem .

adjacent^2 = hypotenuse^2 - opposite^2

adjacent^2 = 3^2 - 2^2

adjacent^2 = 9 - 4

adjacent^2 = 5

adjacent = √(5)

Finally we can calculate the value of cos Θ in the following way :

\cos \theta = -\text{adjacent / hypotenuse}

\large {\boxed {\cos \theta = (-√(5))/(3)} } }

We give a negative sign because tan Θ < 0, and this means the angle is between 90° and 180°

Answers

Answer:

1. 501

2. 1258 or 4258 or 9258

Step-by-step explanation:

1. represent number (d3d2d1) in terms of x. let x = 10's digit (dxd) then

d2 = x

d1 = x + 1

d3 = 5(x + 1) = 5x + 5

d3 + d2 + d1 = 6

(5x + 5) + (x) + (x + 1) = 6

7x + 6 = 6

7x = 0

x = 0   SO

d3 = (5x + 5) = 5

d2 = 0

d1 = x + 1 = 1

501

2. d4d3d2d1 and d1 not = d2 not = d3 not = d4, let d3 = x and d2 = y then

d2 = y

d3 = x

d1 = 4x and d1 = y + 3 so 4x = y + 3 or y = 4x - 3

d4 = perfect square (1 or 4 or 9)

any d must be <= 9

d4d3d2d1 = (1 or 4 or 9)(x)(4x - 3))(4x) so x<3 (0,1,2) or d1 fails <= 9

(1,4,9)(0,1,2)((4x - 3 = (1,5))((4x = 0,4,8)

d3 (0,1,2) must be 2 because 0 does not work for d2 and 1 does not work for d1, so this make d1 (4x) = 8 so

(d4)(2)(4x - 3 = 5)(4x = 8) = d4 (1,4,9) and 258 so

1258 or 4258 or 9258

B)yes; y=1/4x
C)yes; y=1/8x
D) No; y does not vary directly with x

Answers

Answer:

D) No; y does not vary directly with x.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can affirm that y varies directly with x, that is, that y is directly proportional to x if they fulfill the following condition.

y/x = k

where,

k is a constant number

We have 3 ordered pairs:

a) (16, 4)

b) (32, 16)

c) (48, 36)

If we perform y/x for each ordered pair,

a) 4/16 = 0.25

b) 16/32 = 0.50

c) 36/48 = 0.75

Since y/x is not constant, y does not vary directly with x.

kirby often forgets to switch the inequity sign when dividing a negative. when solving 3x-10≥x, should kirby collect the variables on the left or the right? why?

Answers

You should collect the variable on the left side since you can't have two variables of the same letter on each side.so you would take the variable from the right side and subtract it from the left. So subtract x on both sides. Your new problem is 2x-10 is greater than or equal to 0. Now you add 10 on both sides. Your new problem is 2x is greater than or equal to 10. Now divide by 2 on both sides. Your answer would be x is greater than or equal to 5

168 newspaper per week equal newspaper per hour ?

Answers

Final answer:

To calculate the number of newspapers per hour, divide the total number of newspapers in a week by the number of hours in a week.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of newspapers per hour, we need to know the number of hours in a week. There are 24 hours in a day and 7 days in a week, so there are 24 x 7 = 168 hours in a week. To find the number of newspapers per hour, we divide the total number of newspapers in a week by the number of hours in a week. In this case, 168 newspapers divided by 168 hours will give us 1 newspaper per hour.
