If the cos of an angle is .75, what is the csc? A. 1/√(5)
B. 9/√(6)
C. 6/√(2)
D. 3/√(9)
E. 4/√(7)
F. 2/√(3)

Choice E. 4/sqrt(7)

This is the same as writing

=================================================

Explanation:

0.75 = 3/4

Recall that cosine is the ratio of adjacent over hypotenuse.

That means if cos(theta) = 3/4, then the adjacent is 3 units and the hypotenuse is 4 units.

Through the pythagorean theorem, we would then find that

a^2+b^2 = c^2

a = sqrt(c^2 - b^2)

a = sqrt(4^2 - 3^2)

a = sqrt(7)

This is the opposite side of reference angle theta.

From here, we can say

csc(angle) = hypotenuse/opposite

csc(theta) = 4/sqrt(7)

which points to choice E as the final answer.

it is probably the graph on the bottom right.

in if you ask questions, the points are taken from your total and given to the one who answered it..

so if i have 30 points and i ask a question for 5 points, then when someone asks a question i will lose 5 points and the answerer earns 5
