Question

I need help with this question, I really dont understand it. My online school is really bad at explaining things.

Robbie the Robot is on a weather satellite orbiting Earth about 3600 km above the surface. The Earth’s radius is about 6400 km. He has had a malfunction in his output device, and the satellite is traveling without communication. His last report was only in terms of trigonometric values and was only partially received. It said, sin Θ < 0….. and then he was lost again.

Create a set of coordinates that would be reasonable for Robbie’s position in space and satisfy his last.

Answer 5

Is there more to the question like a part 1 and 2

Answer 6

yes, sorry part 1 is :
Create a set of coordinates that would be reasonable for Robbie’s position in space and satisfy his last.

Part 2: What are the values of the sin Θ, cos Θ, and tan Θ using your coordinate point?

Answer 7

sin theta is negative in QIII and QIV
cos theta is negative in Q II and positive in Q IV
tan theta is positive in QIII and negative in Q IV

Answer 8

Let me look at part 2

Answer 9

yes, I understand the negatives and positive in the quadrants.
