Quick answer Sin(570) = - 1/2
Comment
570 as an angle contains 1 complete revolution of the terminal arm. The terminal arm begins at the origin and the other (in this case swings around until it records 570° turning around the x axis in an anticlockwise direction.

Anticlockwise means going from 12 o'clock to 9 o'clock to 6 o'clock then 3 o'clock and back to 12 o'clock.

What is 570° (∅) degrees equivalent to?
We keep on subtracting 360 until we get a number between 0 and 360 inclusive.

Written this way 0 ≤∅≤360
570 - 360 = 210°

So we need to find the equivalent of 210°

Method
210° = 180° + 30°
This means that ∅ is 30° below the x axis in the 3rd quadrant.

Sin(30) = 1/2
In the third quadrant, the sine is minus. so
sin(210°) = - 1/2 <<<<<<< Answer

Answer from: Quest

we have three similar triangles, because each has a right angle and shares an angle. let's write the angles in order: opposite to short leg, long leg, hypotenuse.

cab similar to bad similar to cbd

or as ratios,

ca: ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

we also know

ac = ad + cd

(ad+cd): ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

(ad+cd)/cb=cb/cd

we have cb=6, ad=5 and seek x=cd.

$(5 + x)/6 = 6/x$

$x(x+5) = 36$

$x^2 +5x - 36 = 0$

$(x+9)(x-4) = 0$

we reject the negative root and conclude x=4

Answer from: Quest

85.560%

step-by-step explanation:

conditional probability is defined as:

p(a|b) = p(a∩b) / p(b)

in other words, the probability that a occurs, given that b has occurred = the probability that both a and b occur / the probability that b occurs.

in this example:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = p(turns 64 & turns 44) / p(turns 44).

if someone turns 64, they must have already turned 44, so:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = p(turns 64) / p(turns 44)

on page 42, we see that of the original 100,000, 94944 turn 44, and 81234 turn 64. therefore:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = 81234 / 94944

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = 0.85560
