Check my answer? Almost done! c: http://i59.tinypic.com/8x6lhf_th.png
@hartnn
what school and year i have the answers for like full lessons
again wrong answer choices
It's FLVS, 5.10, but I'd just like to know if I did it correctly and if not figure out what i did wrong :x
its right
you are correct
it'd be just \(\tan \theta\) and not \(\pm \tan \theta \)
and cos is not correct -.-
why no plus/minus?
^
\(\sqrt{x^2} = |x|\) not +/- x
answer to a square root of real number can never be negative
so it's technically Tan still? out of these choices?
|x| = +/-x it's positive some places, negative in others. example: -tan(3pi/4) = sqrt(tan^2(3pi/4)) I think that's the point of the negative though. See how this negative is changing the tan(3pi/4) to a positive? making sure the root is positive. Maybe I don't have my head on straight today :P I dunno, I'll think about it some more.
last option is correct, yes tan.
ok im posting one more and im done =3
example \(\sqrt {(x)^2}\) when x is negative, say -6
answer won't be negative
also |-6| =6
\[\Large\rm \sqrt{x^2}=\pm x\]So in your example, when x=-6\[\Large\rm \sqrt{(-6)^2}=\pm (-6)=-(-6)\]See how we have to use the negative root in order to get the correct answer? |-6|=+/-(-6) = -(-6)=6
