Question

Given the triangle below, what is cot∡B?http://go.flvs.net/courses/1/flvs_57_3641_12624/ppg/respondus/pool_Geom_3641_0403_03/image0084e2ec0b0.gif

Answer 1

Use the pythagorean theorem to find the missing side and then use the definition of cot = side adjacent /side opposite.

Answer 2

\[\sqrt{33} \over 7\]
\[7\sqrt{33} \over 33 \]
\[4\sqrt{33} \over 33\]
\[\sqrt{33} \over 4\]

Answer 3

those are the answers

Answer 4

Excellent!!

Answer 5

thanks! so which one is right? /=

Answer 6

The problem asks for the cot of angle B. The side adjacent is sqrt33 and the side opposite is 4 So the answer is sqrt33/4

Answer 7

OOH makes sense! thank you :)
