Arthur Pythagoras rules! 12 x 12 = 3 x 3 + x2, so x2 = 144 - 9 and x = sqrt 135 = 11.62 so to the nearest foot it reaches 12 feet (actually 11.62)
How are sine and cosine and secant related?
Sine and cosine are cofunctions, which means that their angles are complementary. Consequently, sin (90° - x) = cos x. Secant is the reciprocal of cosine so that sec x = 1/(cos x). Knowing these properties of trigonometric functions, among others, will really help you in other advance math courses.
A ladder 10 ft long leaning against a wall at a 71 angle how high up the wall does the ladder reach?
10 sin71 = 10 x 0.9455 = 9.455 feet (just under 9' 5½")
Name any lines of symmetry for the graph of y equals sin x?
x = (2n+1)*pi/2 radians for any integer n.
22227 feet
This is a right triangle with an angle equal to 13 degrees, and the side opposite that angle equal to 5000 ft (6000-1000). We need to find the hypotenuse (which we will call x) of the triangle (i.e., the length of the trail). Because sin(theta)=opposite side/hypotenuse.
Therefore we have:
sin(13 deg)=5000/x
Solving for x:
x=5000/sin(13 deg)=22227
[Be sure that you are using degrees rather than radians; otherwise, you will get a wrong answer. If your calculator is using radians and you don't want to change it, you first need to convert 13 degrees to radians by multiplying 13 by (pi/180).] Using radians, you would do the same as above, but the last line would be:
x=5000/sin(13*pi/180)=22227
SOHCAHTOA
This would be the sine, the opposite over the hypotenuse.
5000/h=sin 30 degrees
5000 divided by sin 30 degrees= trail
What does no more than mean in math?
No more than means the number or less.
For example, no more than five could be 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 but no higher. It couldn't be 6, 7 or 8 etc.
that's right, but to added on -1, -2, -3, -4, or -5 can be too.
How do you find the amplitude maximum minimum and period for y equals -1 plus 3sin4x?
y = -1 + 3 sin 4x
Let's look at the equation of y = 3 sin 4x, which is of the form y = A sin Bx, where
the amplitude = |A|, and the period = (2pi)/B.
So that the amplitude of the graph of y = 3 sin 4x is |3| = 3, which tell us that the maximum value of y is 3 and the minimum value is -3, and the period is (2pi)/4 = pi/2, which tell us that each cycle is completed in pi/2 radians.
The graph of y = -1 + 3 sin 4x has the same amplitude and period as y = 3 sin 4x, and translates the graph of y = 3 sin 4x one unit down, so that the maximum value of y becomes 2 and the minimum value becomes -4.
What is the measure of angle ABD?
that purely depends on the given polygon and any information about it
What is Rcos theta and Rsin Theta?
They are the projections, onto the x and y [Cartesian] axes, of a point whose polar coordinates are (R, theta).
It's a common Trig way to express a point when a radius is rotated around a given angle. For example, where exactly would the edge of a two foot gate lie if the gate opened 30 degrees? R is two feet. Two times cosine 30 is the x coordinate and two times sine 30 is the y coordinate.
The area is 99.0 square units.
Express all the trignometric ratios in terms of COS A?
Provided that any denominator is non-zero,
sin = sqrt(1 - cos^2)tan = sqrt(1 - cos^2)/cos
sec = 1/cos
cosec = 1/sqrt(1 - cos^2)
cot = cos/sqrt(1 - cos^2)
If cos B is 5/13, find sin B, tan B, sec B, and cot B?
sin= y/r= 12/13
cos= x/r= 5/13
tan= y/x= 12/5
csc= r/y= 13/12
sec= r/x= 13/5
cot= x/y= 5/12
x2+y2=r2
cot[x]= -1
cot[x] = cos[x] / sin[x]
cos[x] / sin[x] = -1
cos[x] = -sin[x]
|cos[x]| = |sin[x]| at every multiple of Pi/4 + Pi/2. However, the signs disagree at 3Pi/4 + nPi, where n is an integer.
How do you find to sine of an angle?
To find the sine ratio of a right-angled triangle divide the opposite by the hypotenuse.
For example: 4/5 = 0.8 units and sine-1(0.8) = 53.13010235 degrees.
