Answer:
cos q = 3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Standard position means the vertex (point or corner of the angle) is at (0,0) and one side of the angle is glued to the positive x-axis (facts, but not technical math terms) See image. Special triangles have all three sides nice and clean with whole number lengths, we call these Pythagorean triples. 3-4-5 is your most basic Pythagorean triple. So we don't even have to calculate the hypotenuse, see image. Now the triangle shown is easy to work with, using entry-level trig...cos = ADJ/HYP. So we get 3/5=.6 BUUuuuut, the angle q in the original problem is actually the giant angle, marked in yellow (see image) and we're in the fourth quadrant which means there's negative numbers all over the place. So just to be sure the answer is .6 and not -.6 Check your signs. One trick to remember is the ASTC markings in the quadrants. I use All Students Take Calculus, but what it means is in the first quadrant All the trig functions are positive. Only Sine (and fam) are positive in the 2nd quadrant. Tan (and fam) in the 3rd and Cos and fam in the 4th quadrant. It's a good quick check.
cos q = 3/5 OR cos q = .6
If you need part A, draw a person and label them 6 feet tall and a shadow coming off of him that is five feet long and draw a basketball hoop that and label it X feet tall and draw a shadow coming from it that is 8 feet long. To solve, you use proportions 6/5=X/8 solving this you get X=9.6 feet which is the height of the rim. Therefore, the rim does not meet regulation height, since the required height (10 feet) is greater than the actual height (9.6 feet).
Answer:
<h3>p(+)q=SQR(p^2+q^2)</h3>
8(+)6=SQR(8^2+6^2)
SQR(64+36)
SQR(100)
=10
Step-by-step explanation:
p + Q is equal to square root of p square + Q Square
sqr means square root
that differences are that mass is a measurement of the amount of matter something contains and mass is measured by using a balance comparing a known amount of matter to an unknow of matter
Answer:
volume = 1809 cm³
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the height of two similar cylinder is 1:3 . The volume of the smaller cylinder is 67 cm³. The volume of the larger cylinder can be computed below:
If 2 object are similar and the ratio of the corresponding sides is x ,then the ratio of their volume is x³.
ratio of height = 1/3
ratio of volume = (1/3)³ = 1/27
volume of smaller cylinder/volume of larger cylinder = 1/27 = 67/x
where
x = volume of the larger cylinder
x = 27 × 67
x = 1809 cm³
volume = 1809 cm³
