OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lets say the answer is C.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is this correct?

OpenStudy (keana):

idk if it is. i was stuck between a & c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or the ratios could be reciprocals

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why would it be negative?

OpenStudy (keana):

i honestly don't know lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok so my best GUESS would be C. but that is a GUESS

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Don't guess. Sin = opp / hyp Cos = adj / hyp this way sin x AND cos y both come out to be 7/25 The answer is therefore C.
