The point P= (x , -3/7) lies on the unit circle shown below. What is the value of x in simplest form?
x is in Quadrant III
1 year ago
Since the point P lies on the unit circle, we know that its distance from the origin is 1. Using the Pythagorean theorem, we can write:
x^2 + (-3/7)^2 = 1^2
Simplifying this equation, we get:
x^2 + 9/49 = 1
Subtracting 9/49 from both sides, we get:
x^2 = 40/49
Taking the square root of both sides (and remembering that x is negative in Quadrant III), we get:
x = -sqrt(40/49) = -2/7 * sqrt(10)
Therefore, the value of x in simplest form is -2/7 * sqrt(10).

Find an angle θ coterminal to 962∘ , where 0∘ ≤ θ <360 ∘
1 year ago
To find an angle θ coterminal to 962∘ within the given range, we can subtract the nearest multiple of 360°.
962° - 2(360°) = 242°
Therefore, an angle θ coterminal to 962° within the given range is 242°.

Find the reference angle for a rotation of 316°.
1 year ago
To find the reference angle for a rotation of 316°, we follow these steps:
1. Identify the quadrant in which the angle lies. A rotation of 316° is equivalent to a rotation of 316° - 360° = -44°. Since -90° < -44° < 0°, the angle is in the fourth quadrant.
2. Find the acute angle between the terminal arm of the angle and the x-axis in the standard position. Since the angle is in the fourth quadrant, the reference angle will be the angle between the terminal arm and the nearest point on the x-axis, which is the horizontal line passing through the initial point. This angle is 44° in magnitude, which is the reference angle for a rotation of 316°.
Therefore, the reference angle for a rotation of 316° is 44°.

Convert the angle -4 radians to degrees, rounding to the nearest 10th.
1 year ago
To convert -4 radians to degrees, we use the conversion factor:
1 radian = 180/Ï€ degrees
So, we have:
-4 radians = -4 * (180/Ï€) degrees
Using a calculator to evaluate this expression, we get:
-229.183118052 radians ≈ -229.2 degrees
Rounding to the nearest tenth, we get:
-4 radians ≈ -229.2 degrees
Therefore, the angle -4 radians is approximately equal to -229.2 degrees, rounded to the nearest tenth.

To convert 585 degrees to radians, we use the conversion factor:
1 degree = π/180 radians
So, we have:
585 degrees = 585 * (Ï€/180) radians
Simplifying, we get:
585 degrees = (65Ï€/12) radians
Therefore, the angle 585 degrees is equivalent to (65Ï€/12) radians in simplest form.

I apologize for the mistake in my earlier answer. Here is the correct solution:
To convert 585 degrees to radians, we use the conversion factor:
1 degree = π/180 radians
So, we have:
585 degrees = 585 * (Ï€/180) radians
Simplifying, we get:
585 degrees = (39Ï€/4) radians
Therefore, the angle 585 degrees is equivalent to (39Ï€/4) radians in simplest form.

can you Reduce the fraction by dividing out the common
1 year ago
Yes, we can reduce the fraction (43π/4) by dividing out the common factor of π.
Doing so gives:
(43π/4) = 43/4 * π
Therefore, the angle 645 degrees is equivalent to (43/4) π radians in simplest form.
