i got D not 100% sure of myself tho

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Find the values of cos(210) and sin(210)..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i just multiplied the 2 with the values of cos and sin

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol forgot this isnt my question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-.866 and -.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\cos(210) = \cos(180 + 30) = -\cos(30) = -\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

use the unit circle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\sin(210) = \sin(180 + 30) \implies - \sin(30) \implies - \frac{1}{2}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now I think you can do.. Just multiply 2 with both of them and you will get it..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sqrt3/4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What do you get when you multiply 2 with : \[2 \times \frac{-\sqrt{3}}{2} = ??\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then what is: \[2 \times \frac{-1}{2} = ??\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh got it! D. Thanks guys :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
