Question

\[given that \sin \Theta = .65 and \Theta is \in quadrant I, what is value of \tan \Theta?\]

Answer 1

find cos theta from
sin^2 theta + cos^2 theta =1
then tan theta = sin theta / cos theta

Answer 2

ohh okay, just not sure how this was started...

Answer 3

but yes i will work it..

Answer 4

ok, tell me what u get for cos theta....when u get it.

Answer 5

.35?

Answer 6

how ?
no.

Answer 7

what is sin^2 theta = ?

Answer 8

would that just be .65^2?

Answer 9

or am i working this wayyy wrong haha

Answer 10

sin^2 theta = 0.65^2 is correct
so what will be cos^2 theta from the formula ?

Answer 11

okay let me see

Answer 12

i get .76

Answer 13

yes, that is cos theta = 0.76
correct
now find tan theta

Answer 14

.86?

Answer 15

0.8552 or 0.86
yes, thats correct

Answer 16

you rock! Thanks for the help

Answer 17

welcome ^_^
