Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Cosine is the adjacent side over the hypotenuse (You can remember sin, cos, and tan by using sohcahtoa or sin = opposite/hypotenuse, cos = adjacent/hypotenuse, tan = opposite over adjacent). I think a picture would help, too.
I attached a picture of what I think the triangle would look like.
If the picture is right (we're assuming it is) and going with what we're given (the triangle was addressed as triangle XYZ, meaning that <u>angle Y is in the middle and that's the one we'll use</u>).
Looking at my picture then:
.
70-q-q-2q= 80
combine like terms first
so you get 70-4q= 80
subtract 70 on both sides and you get -4q= 10
divide -4 on both sides and you get q= 10/-4 or -2.5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider a sketch of the problem as shown in the picture, where:
- Blue line is given by y = 4x + 1.
- Point B is the center of the circle.
- Point A is (-3, 0).
Since the center of the circle lies on the line y = 4x +1 and is tangent to the x-axis at point A, then its radius BA is perpendicular to the x-axis. To find the coordinates of point B, we must replace x = -3 into the blue line equation: y = 4x(-3) + 1 = -11.
So, we know that the center of the circle is at B=(-3, -11). And furthermore, the radius BA is of length r=11.
Since the <em>general equation of the circle</em> of radius lenght r centered at (h, k) is given by
then with h = -3, k = -11 and r= 11, the equation of our circle is
Check the picture below.
recall that negative angles go "clockwise".
Answer: y+1 = 5(x-1)
