Question

If tan x° = z divided by 10 and cos x° = 10 divided by y, what is the value of sin x°?

Answer 1

@amistre64 can you please help or find anyone? I really need help

Answer 2

how do we define tan in terms of sin and cos?

Answer 3

umm... tan is opposite adjacent?

Answer 4

sin x° = y over z

sin x° = z over y

sin x° = 10z

sin x° = 10y

Answer 5

that's my possible answers

Answer 6

thats in terms of sides ... in terms of sin and cos:\[tan(x)=\frac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}\]
sooo, just fill in whats given and solve for sin(x0

Answer 7

those arent 'possible' answers. they are options, one of which IS the answer.

Answer 8

so would it be

sin x° = 10y

when you fill it in because 10y is the cos?

Answer 9

tan x° = z/10 cos x° = 10/y

sin x = tan * cos

sin x = \(\frac{z}{10} * \frac{10}{y}\)

Answer 10

so sinX=z/y because the 10s cancel out?

Answer 11

yes

Answer 12

thank you :D
