Look at the figure. Based on the figure, which equation is true? cos x° = 2 tan y° tan x° = 2 sin y° sin x° = 2 cos y° sin x° = 2 tan y

@Data_LG2 i was wondering i you could help me with a few more and i'll be done with my assignment

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Look at the bottom triangle, look from the angle x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you can ask @eLg for this one..

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

identify the two sides given

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@eLg can you help me please

OpenStudy (anonymous):

give me a sec., I am solving it right now.

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

First step is to find the missing sides, AB and CD, which you do using the Pythagorean theorem. Then find sinx, cosx, and tanx, and siny, cosy, and tany.

Explanation: hypotenuse with x is equal to \[hypotenuse = \sqrt{10^{2}+10^{2}}=10\sqrt{2}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

adjacent side with y is equal to : \[adjacent = \sqrt{10^{2}-5^{2}}=5\sqrt{3}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

use SOH CAH TOA: \[\sin \theta= \frac{ opposite }{ hypotenuse}\] \[\cos \theta= \frac{ adjacent }{hypotenuse}\] \[\tan \theta=\frac{ opposite }{ adjacent }\] substitute the values, My answer is \[tanx=2siny\]

@eLg thanks, your awesome!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just let me review it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@brianjr227 thanks, your awesome too

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Good answer @eLg but it'd be better to post the working/explanation before posting the answer... some people don't care about the working and will just see the answer and not bother trying to learn how to do it on their own.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@agent0smith oh ok. Next time I will do that. Is my answer right?

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

tanx=2siny looks right. tanx=1, siny=0.5, so 2siny = tanx = 1
