OpenStudy (anonymous):

this isn't a quiz just so everyones clear, i think the use the same urls for assignments and quizzes, cause i cant copy the URLs in a quiz. =/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\csc \theta = \frac{ hypotenuse }{ opposite }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks! i didnt have the formula (:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you take it from here? :) yw

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yess, thank you so much.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh duh. thats COS that i was thinking of. okay for the i got E/D haha. so is this D/F then?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\csc \theta = \frac{ Hypotenuse }{ Opposite }\] \[\csc E = \frac{ d }{ e }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

mehh. i thought i was right for once.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh! cause its the opposite of E i just went with D cause that was my hypotenuse!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh and be careful on your notation, CAPITAL LETTERS are used for angles. the lower case letters are used for side lengths.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh, i didnt know that. so thanks, i was just making sure that in the convo they were clear. thank you so much for the help! youve been super helpful and patient (:
