If $\sin(\theta) = \frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}$ and $\theta$ is an acute angle, what is the value of $\tan^2(\theta)$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 1.25

Cevap

The correct answer is 1.25 (or the equivalent fraction 5/4).

Using the Pythagorean identity

\sin^2(\theta) + \cos^2(\theta) = 1

, we find

\cos^2(\theta) = 1 - \frac{5}{9} = \frac{4}{9}

. Since

\tan(\theta) = \frac{\sin(\theta)}{\cos(\theta)}

, it follows that

\tan^2(\theta) = \frac{\sin^2(\theta)}{\cos^2(\theta)} = \frac{5/9}{4/9} = 1.25

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the square of the cosine of the angle using the Pythagorean identity.

\cos^2(\theta) = 1 - \sin^2(\theta) = 1 - \left(\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}\right)^2 = 1 - \frac{5}{9} = \frac{4}{9}

The Pythagorean identity states that

\sin^2(\theta) + \cos^2(\theta) = 1

for any angle

\theta

.

2

Express the tangent squared in terms of sine squared and cosine squared.

\tan^2(\theta) = \frac{\sin^2(\theta)}{\cos^2(\theta)}

By definition, the tangent function is the ratio of sine to cosine, so

\tan(\theta) = \frac{\sin(\theta)}{\cos(\theta)}

.

3

Substitute the values of

\sin^2(\theta)

and

\cos^2(\theta)

to solve for

\tan^2(\theta)

.

\tan^2(\theta) = \frac{5/9}{4/9} = \frac{5}{4} = 1.25

Plugging in the squared ratios and simplifying gives the final evaluation.

Cevap: $\frac{1}{36}$

Cevap

The ratio of the volume of the cone to the volume of the cylinder is

\frac{1}{36}

The volume of a right circular cone is given by

V_{\text{cone}} = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h

. Since the cylinder has a radius that is twice that of the cone (

2r

) and a height that is three times that of the cone (

3h

), its volume is

V_{\text{cylinder}} = \pi (2r)^2(3h) = 12\pi r^2 h

. Dividing the cone's volume by the cylinder's volume gives

\frac{\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h}{12\pi r^2 h} = \frac{1}{36}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Write the formula for the volume of the cone.

V_{\text{cone}} = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h

This establishes the volume of the first solid in terms of

r

2

Write the formula for the volume of the cylinder using the scaled dimensions.

V_{\text{cylinder}} = \pi (2r)^2(3h) = 12\pi r^2 h

The cylinder has a radius of

2r

and a height of

3h

, and the volume formula is

\pi R^2 H

.

3

Calculate the ratio of the volume of the cone to the volume of the cylinder.

\frac{V_{\text{cone}}}{V_{\text{cylinder}}} = \frac{\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h}{12\pi r^2 h} = \frac{1}{36}

This compares the two volumes directly by dividing the cone's volume by the cylinder's volume.

Cevap: $\frac{50}{9}$

Cevap

\frac{50}{9}

The volume of the sphere with radius

r

is

V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

. When it is melted and recast into a right circular cylinder with radius

R

and height

h = \frac{3}{4}r

, the volume remains the same. The volume of the cylinder is

V = \pi R^2 h

. Equating the two volumes gives

\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 = \pi R^2 \left(\frac{3}{4}r\right)

. Dividing both sides by

\pi r

yields

\frac{4}{3} r^2 = \frac{3}{4} R^2

, which simplifies to

R^2 = \frac{16}{9} r^2

. Taking the square root of both sides gives

R = \frac{4}{3}r

. The total surface area of the cylinder is given by the formula

S = 2\pi R^2 + 2\pi R h

. Substituting the values of

R

and

h

in terms of

r

yields

S = 2\pi \left(\frac{4}{3}r\right)^2 + 2\pi \left(\frac{4}{3}r\right)\left(\frac{3}{4}r\right) = 2\pi \left(\frac{16}{9}r^2\right) + 2\pi r^2 = \frac{32}{9}\pi r^2 + \frac{18}{9}\pi r^2 = \frac{50}{9}\pi r^2

. Since the surface area is

k\pi r^2

, the value of

k

is

\frac{50}{9}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

This is the standard formula for the volume of a sphere.

2

Equate the volume of the sphere to the volume of the cylinder to find the cylinder's radius

R

in terms of

r

.

\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 = \pi R^2 \left(\frac{3}{4}r\right) \implies R^2 = \frac{16}{9}r^2 \implies R = \frac{4}{3}r

The volume of a cylinder is

V_{\text{cylinder}} = \pi R^2 h

. Since the sphere is melted and recast into the cylinder, their volumes must be equal. Solving for

R^2

and taking the square root gives the radius

R

.

3

Use the total surface area formula for the cylinder to express the surface area in terms of

r

.

A = 2\pi R^2 + 2\pi R h = 2\pi\left(\frac{16}{9}r^2\right) + 2\pi\left(\frac{4}{3}r\right)\left(\frac{3}{4}r\right) = \frac{32}{9}\pi r^2 + 2\pi r^2 = \frac{50}{9}\pi r^2

The total surface area of a right circular cylinder consists of the area of the two circular bases and the lateral surface area.

Compare the calculated surface area to the given expression

k\pi r^2

k = \frac{50}{9}

In right triangle $JKL$ , the measure of angle $K$ is $90^\circ$ . If $\cos(J) = 0.28$ , what is the value of $\sin(L)$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 0.28

Cevap

The correct answer is 0.28 (or the equivalent fraction 7/25).

In a right triangle, the two acute angles are complementary, meaning they add up to

90^\circ

. The co-function identity states that the sine of an acute angle is equal to the cosine of its complement. Therefore, in right triangle

JKL

with right angle

K

,

\sin(L) = \cos(J)

. Given that

\cos(J) = 0.28

, the value of

\sin(L)

must also be

0.28

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

J

and

L

.

J + L = 90^\circ

Since the sum of angles in a triangle is

180^\circ

and angle

90^\circ

, the sum of the remaining two angles must be

180^\circ - 90^\circ = 90^\circ

.

2

Use the co-function trigonometric identity.

\sin(L) = \cos(J)

The sine of an acute angle in a right triangle is equal to the cosine of its complementary angle.

Substitute the given value of

\cos(J)

into the identity.

\sin(L) = 0.28

We are given that

A rectangular box has a square base with side length $x$ inches and a height of $5$ inches. The total surface area of the box is $192$ square inches. What is the value of $x$ ?

Cevap: 6

Cevap

The value of

x

is

6

The total surface area is found by adding the areas of all six faces. The top and bottom faces are squares with side length

x

, so their combined area is

2x^2

. The four vertical sides are rectangles with dimensions

x

5

, so their combined area is

4(5x) = 20x

. Setting their sum equal to the total surface area gives

2x^2 + 20x = 192

. Dividing by

2

yields

x^2 + 10x - 96 = 0

, which factors as

(x + 16)(x - 6) = 0

. Since

x

must be positive,

x = 6

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set up the equation for the total surface area of the rectangular box.

\text{Total Surface Area} = 2x^2 + 20x = 192

The total surface area of a rectangular box with a square base of side length

x

and height

h

consists of two square bases (top and bottom) of area

x^2

each, and four rectangular sides of area

xh

each. Substituting

h = 5

gives

2x^2 + 4(5x) = 2x^2 + 20x

.

2

Simplify and set the quadratic equation to zero.

x^2 + 10x - 96 = 0

Dividing all terms by

2

simplifies the equation to

x^2 + 10x = 96

. Subtracting

96

from both sides sets the quadratic equation to standard form

ax^2 + bx + c = 0

.

3

Factor the quadratic equation and solve for the positive value of

x

.

x = 6

Factoring the equation gives

(x + 16)(x - 6) = 0

, which yields solutions of

x = -16

and

x = 6

. Since the side length of a geometric solid must be positive, we reject the negative solution.

The correct answer is 1.5 (or 3/2).

The correct answer is 1.5. By using the formulas for the volume of a cylinder (

V = \pi r^2 h

) and a sphere (

V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

), the total volume of the first cylinder and the sphere is

6\pi r^2 + \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

. The second cylinder has a volume of

\pi(2r)^2(2) = 8\pi r^2

. Setting them equal gives

6\pi r^2 + \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 = 8\pi r^2

. Subtracting

6\pi r^2

from both sides gives

\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 = 2\pi r^2

Cevap: $\frac{16}{3\pi}$

Cevap

The ratio of the volume of the rectangular prism to the volume of the cylinder is

\frac{16}{3\pi}

.

The volume of the rectangular prism is the product of its dimensions:

V = 8 \times 6 \times h = 48h

. The volume of the right circular cylinder is calculated using the formula

\pi r^2 h

:

W = \pi \times 3^2 \times h = 9\pi h

. The ratio of

V

to

W

is represented by the fraction

\frac{V}{W} = \frac{48h}{9\pi h}

. Simplifying the fraction by canceling the common variable

h

and dividing the numerator and denominator by

3

yields the expression

\frac{16}{3\pi}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Write the expression for the volume of the rectangular prism,

V

, in terms of

h

.

V = 8 \times 6 \times h = 48h

The volume of a rectangular prism is calculated using the formula

\text{Volume} = lwh

, where

l

is the length,

w

is the width, and

h

is the height.

2

Write the expression for the volume of the cylinder,

W

, in terms of

h

.

W = \pi \times 3^2 \times h = 9\pi h

The volume of a right circular cylinder is calculated using the formula

\text{Volume} = \pi r^2 h

, where

r

is the base radius and

h

is the height.

3

Express the ratio of

V

to

W

as a fraction and simplify it.

\frac{V}{W} = \frac{48h}{9\pi h} = \frac{48}{9\pi} = \frac{16}{3\pi}

The ratio of

V

to

W

is given by

\frac{V}{W}

. The common height variable

h

cancels out from both the numerator and the denominator, and the fraction

\frac{48}{9}

simplifies to

\frac{16}{3}

by dividing both numbers by their greatest common divisor,

In the $xy$ -plane, a square has vertices at $(0,0)$ , $(10,0)$ , $(10,10)$ , and $(0,10)$ . A line that passes through the points $(0,2)$ and $(8,10)$ divides the square into two regions. What is the area of the larger region?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 68

Cevap

The area of the larger region is 68.

The total area of the square is

10^2 = 100

. The line segment between

(0,2)

on the left boundary and

(8,10)

on the top boundary forms a right triangle with the top-left vertex of the square

(0,10)

. The legs of this right triangle have lengths

10 - 2 = 8

and

8 - 0 = 8

, so its area is

\frac{1}{2} \times 8 \times 8 = 32

. The area of the other region is

100 - 32 = 68

. The larger area is therefore 68.

In right triangle $ABC$ , the measure of angle $B$ is $90^\circ$ . If the length of side $AB$ is 6 and the length of side $AC$ is 10, what is the length of side $BC$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 8

Cevap

The length of side

BC

is 8.

By applying the Pythagorean theorem to right triangle

ABC

, we have

AB^2 + BC^2 = AC^2

. Substituting the given values gives

6^2 + BC^2 = 10^2

, or

36 + BC^2 = 100

. Subtracting 36 from both sides gives

BC^2 = 64

, and taking the square root yields

BC = 8

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the hypotenuse and the given leg in the right triangle.

The hypotenuse is

AC = 10

and the given leg is

AB = 6

.

The side opposite the

90^\circ

angle (angle

B

) is always the hypotenuse.

2

Apply the Pythagorean theorem.

AB^2 + BC^2 = AC^2

, which becomes

6^2 + BC^2 = 10^2

.

The Pythagorean theorem states that the sum of the squares of the legs of a right triangle equals the square of the hypotenuse.

3

Solve for the unknown leg

BC

.

36 + BC^2 = 100 \implies BC^2 = 64 \implies BC = 8

.

Simplify the squares, subtract 36 from both sides, and find the principal square root of 64.

A right circular cylinder and a right circular cone have equal volumes. The radius of the cylinder's base is $3$ times the radius of the cone's base. If the height of the cone is $k$ times the height of the cylinder, what is the value of $k$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 27

Cevap

27

The volume of a cylinder is

V_{\text{cylinder}} = \pi r_{\text{cylinder}}^2 h_{\text{cylinder}}

and the volume of a cone is

V_{\text{cone}} = \frac{1}{3} \pi r_{\text{cone}}^2 h_{\text{cone}}

. Let the base radius of the cone be

r

and the height of the cylinder be

h

. According to the problem, the base radius of the cylinder is

3r

and the height of the cone is

kh

. Setting the volumes equal to each other gives

\pi (3r)^2 h = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 (kh)

. Squaring the term in parentheses simplifies the equation to

9 \pi r^2 h = \frac{k}{3} \pi r^2 h

. Dividing both sides by the common term

\pi r^2 h

yields

9 = \frac{k}{3}

. Multiplying both sides by 3 results in

k = 27

.

To establish the mathematical equations governing the volume of each solid.

2

Define variables for the cone's radius (

h

), then write the cylinder's radius and the cone's height using the given relationships.

r_{\text{cylinder}} = 3r

h_{\text{cylinder}} = h

, and

h_{\text{cone}} = kh

To express all variables in terms of

r

k

so they can be compared directly.

3

Substitute the expressions into the volume formulas and set the two volumes equal to each other.

\pi (3r)^2 h = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 (kh)

The problem states that the cylinder and the cone have equal volumes.

4

Simplify the equation by squaring the cylinder's radius and dividing both sides by the common factors.

9 \pi r^2 h = \frac{k}{3} \pi r^2 h \implies 9 = \frac{k}{3} \implies k = 27

Cevap

The area of the circular fountain is

108\pi

square meters.

The side length of the smaller hexagon is calculated to be

4

meters using the area formula for a regular hexagon. Because the larger hexagon's perimeter is scaled by a factor of

3

, its side length is

12

meters. The radius of the inscribed circle is the apothem of the larger hexagon, which is

12 \times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} = 6\sqrt{3}

meters. Squaring this radius and multiplying by

\pi

results in an area of

108\pi

square meters.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Find the side length of the smaller regular hexagon.

The side length is

4

meters.

The area of a regular hexagon with side length

s_1

is given by

A = \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2} s_1^2

. Setting this equal to

24\sqrt{3}

yields

s_1^2 = 16

, so

s_1 = 4

.

2

Determine the side length of the larger regular hexagon.

The side length is

12

meters.

Since the two hexagons are similar, the ratio of their perimeters is equal to the linear scale factor of their sides. The perimeter of the larger hexagon is

3

times that of the smaller hexagon, so its side length is

s_2 = 3 \times 4 = 12

.

3

Find the radius of the inscribed circle in the larger hexagon.

The radius is

6\sqrt{3}

meters.

The radius

r

of the inscribed circle is the apothem of the regular hexagon. For a hexagon with side length

s_2 = 12

, the apothem is

r = s_2 \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} = 12 \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} = 6\sqrt{3}

.

4

Calculate the area of the inscribed circular fountain.

The area is

108\pi

square meters.

Using the area formula for a circle,

A = \pi r^2

, we substitute

r = 6\sqrt{3}

to get

A = \pi (6\sqrt{3})^2 = 108\pi

The diagonal of the rectangular garden forms a right triangle with the garden's length and width acting as the legs. By applying the Pythagorean theorem,

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

, where

a = 5

and

b = 12

Cevap: $\frac{4}{5}$

Cevap

four-fifths

The correct answer is four-fifths. Because

\theta

and

\phi

are complementary angles in a right triangle,

\sin(\phi)

equals

\cos(\theta)

, which is given as three-fifths. Using the Pythagorean identity,

\sin(\theta)

is four-fifths, making

\tan(\theta)

equal to four-thirds. Multiplying

\sin(\phi)

and

\tan(\theta)

gives three-fifths times four-thirds, which simplifies to four-fifths.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Use the complementary angle relationship to find

\sin(\phi)

.

\sin(\phi) = \cos(\theta) = \frac{3}{5}

The two acute angles in a right triangle,

\theta

and

\phi

, sum to

90^\circ

. Therefore, the sine of one angle equals the cosine of the other.

2

Find

\sin(\theta)

using the Pythagorean identity.

\sin(\theta) = \frac{4}{5}

Since

\sin^2(\theta) + \cos^2(\theta) = 1

, we have

\sin^2(\theta) + \left(\frac{3}{5}\right)^2 = 1

, which gives

\sin^2(\theta) = \frac{16}{25}

. Because

\theta

is acute,

\sin(\theta) = \frac{4}{5}

.

3

Calculate

\tan(\theta)

using the quotient identity.

\tan(\theta) = \frac{4}{3}

By definition,

\tan(\theta) = \frac{\sin(\theta)}{\cos(\theta)} = \frac{4/5}{3/5} = \frac{4}{3}

.

4

Multiply

\sin(\phi)

by

\tan(\theta)

.

\sin(\phi) \tan(\theta) = \frac{4}{5}

Substitute the found values:

\sin(\phi) \tan(\theta) = \frac{3}{5} \times \frac{4}{3} = \frac{4}{5}

.

9^2 + 12^2 = 81 + 144 = 225

. Taking the square root of

225

gives the hypotenuse length, which is

15

feet.

1

Model the scenario using a right triangle.

A right triangle where the vertical leg is

12

feet (height on the wall), the horizontal leg is

9

feet (distance along the ground), and the hypotenuse is

c

(the ladder length).

The intersection of the vertical wall and the horizontal ground forms a right angle (

90^\circ

).

2

Set up the Pythagorean equation.

9^2 + 12^2 = c^2

The Pythagorean theorem states that the sum of the squares of the legs of a right triangle equals the square of the hypotenuse.

3

Solve for the hypotenuse

c

.

c = \sqrt{81 + 144} = \sqrt{225} = 15

Simplifying the arithmetic yields

225

, and taking the square root gives the final length of

15

feet.
