Question

In the diagram below, find 0 to the nearest degree.

Answer 1

actually use cos

Answer 2

\[\cos \theta=17/35\]

Answer 3

find theta

Answer 4

to find theta take the cos^-1 of 17/35

Answer 5

okay can you walk me through that so i can compare my results? @10115658

Answer 6

what did you get?

Answer 7

well im still trying to do it all, but when im done id like to compare the steps and results

Answer 8

ok

Answer 9

okay so step 1 is \[\cos \Theta \frac{ 17 }{ 35 }\]

Answer 10

which i got nothing for?

Answer 11

@10115658

Answer 12

that should be \[\cos \theta=17/35\]

Answer 13

okay well that confuses me more.

Answer 14

1.05 ?

Answer 15

so we are trying to find theta

Answer 16

just use the cos^-1 to isolate theta

Answer 17

was 1.05 correct?

Answer 18

\[\theta=\cos ^{-1}(17/35)\]

Answer 19

no

Answer 20

just type that into your calculator and see what you get

Answer 21

i dont have a graphing calculator.
