If cosine of x equals 1 over 2, and tan (x) > 0. in which quadrant is x located? explain how you know. what is sin(x) and tan(x)? show all work for full credit.

Answers:

x is in quadrant I (first quadrant) in the upper right hand corner

sin(x) = sqrt(3)/2

tan(x) = sqrt(3)

where 'sqrt' is shorthand for 'square root'

Explanation:

cos(x) = 1/2 shows us that cos(x) > 0. At the same time, we're told that tan(x) > 0. Both cosine and tangent are positive. This only happens when we're in the first quadrant. The first quadrant is to the right of the vertical y axis, and it is above the horizontal x axis. In short, the first quadrant is in the upper right hand corner. Tangent is positive in quadrant III; however, cosine is negative here. Similarly, cosine is positive in Q4, but tangent is negative here.

Use the pythagorean trig identity to determine the value of sin(x)

sin^2(x) + cos^2(x) = 1

sin^2(x) + (1/2)^2 = 1

sin^2(x) + 1/4 = 1

sin^2(x) = 1 - 1/4

sin^2(x) = 3/4

sin(x) = sqrt(3/4)

sin(x) = sqrt(3)/sqrt(4)

sin(x) = sqrt(3)/2 ... sine is positive in quadrant I

Now divide the values of sine and cosine to get tangent

tan(x) = sin(x)/cos(x)

tan(x) = sin(x) divided by cos(x)

tan(x) = sqrt(3)/2 divided by 1/2

tan(x) = sqrt(3)/2 times 2/1

tan(x) = sqrt(3) note how the '2's cancel

we see that tangent is positive, so that helps confirm the answer.

answer: -2+√x,-2-√x

i hope this , i don't know if you're looking for a pair or not.

answer: integers are just whole numbers: positive, negative, and zero.

i = {-∞, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ∞}

let x = 1st integer

let y = 2nd integer

x = 3y + 17   {equation 1}

xy = -24         {equation 2}

substitute 3y+17 in place of x n equation 2

and solve for y.

(3y+17)y = -24

3y2 + 17y = -24

3y2 + 17y + 24 = 0

from quadratic equation:

y = [-17±√(172-4(3)(24))]/(2(3))

y = (-17 ±√1)/6

y = (-17+1)/6   or     y = (-17-1)/6

y = -16/6           or     y = -18/6

y = -2 2/3         or   y = -3

since we are dealing with

y = -3

x = 3y+17 = -9+17 = 8

the integers are -3, 8
