Cevap: $\frac{3\pi}{4}$

Cevap

The correct answer is

\frac{3\pi}{4}

radians.

The correct answer is determined by first finding the net angle of rotation. Subtracting the

75^\circ

clockwise rotation from the

210^\circ

counterclockwise rotation yields a net rotation of

135^\circ

counterclockwise. Converting this angle to radians is done by multiplying

135^\circ

by

\frac{\pi}{180^\circ}

, resulting in

\frac{135\pi}{180}

radians. Dividing both the numerator and denominator by 45 simplifies the fraction to

\frac{3\pi}{4}

radians.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the net counterclockwise rotation in degrees.

210^\circ - 75^\circ = 135^\circ

Since counterclockwise rotation is positive and clockwise rotation is negative, we subtract the clockwise rotation from the counterclockwise rotation.

2

Convert the angle from degrees to radians.

135 \times \frac{\pi}{180} = \frac{135\pi}{180}

radians

To convert degrees to radians, multiply the degree measure by the conversion factor

\frac{\pi}{180^\circ}

.

3

Simplify the fraction to its lowest terms.

\frac{3\pi}{4}

radians

Divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 45.

Alternatively, convert each individual rotation to radians first, then subtract. Convert

210^\circ

to radians:

210 \times \frac{\pi}{180} = \frac{7\pi}{6}

radians. Convert

75^\circ

to radians:

75 \times \frac{\pi}{180} = \frac{5\pi}{12}

radians. Subtract the clockwise rotation from the counterclockwise rotation:

\frac{7\pi}{6} - \frac{5\pi}{12} = \frac{14\pi}{12} - \frac{5\pi}{12} = \frac{9\pi}{12} = \frac{3\pi}{4}

radians.

The correct answer is 5. Starting with the point

\left(-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}, -\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right)

on the unit circle, the angle in standard position is

225^\circ

(or

\frac{5\pi}{4}

radians). Adding

15^\circ

for the counterclockwise rotation yields

240^\circ

(or

\frac{4\pi}{3}

radians). Doubling this measure gives

480^\circ

(or

\frac{8\pi}{3}

radians). Finding the coterminal angle within

[0, 2\pi)

yields

120^\circ

(or

\frac{2\pi}{3}

radians). In this form,

a=2

and

b=3

, which are positive integers with no common factors, so

a+b = 5

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Determine the initial angle of the terminal ray intersecting the unit circle at

\left(-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}, -\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right)

.

The initial angle

\theta

is

225^\circ

(or

\frac{5\pi}{4}

radians).

Since both the

x

- and

y

-coordinates are negative and equal, the angle lies in the third quadrant and forms a

45^\circ

reference angle with the negative

x

-axis, which corresponds to

225^\circ

.

2

Apply a counterclockwise rotation of

15^\circ

to the initial angle.

The new angle is

240^\circ

(or

\frac{4\pi}{3}

radians).

Counterclockwise rotations correspond to adding positive angle measures:

225^\circ + 15^\circ = 240^\circ

.

3

Double the measure of the rotated angle.

The doubled angle is

480^\circ

(or

\frac{8\pi}{3}

radians).

The prompt specifies that the angle's measure is doubled after the rotation:

240^\circ \times 2 = 480^\circ

.

4

Find the coterminal angle within the standard interval

[0, 2\pi)

radians (or

[0^\circ, 360^\circ)

).

The coterminal angle is

120^\circ

(or

\frac{2\pi}{3}

radians).

To bring the angle back into the interval

[0^\circ, 360^\circ)

, subtract

360^\circ

(one full rotation):

480^\circ - 360^\circ = 120^\circ

. In radians,

120^\circ \times \frac{\pi}{180^\circ} = \frac{2\pi}{3}

radians.

In the $xy$ -plane, an angle $\theta$ is in standard position. The terminal ray of $\theta$ is rotated counterclockwise by $\frac{7\pi}{6}$ radians, and then rotated clockwise by $135^\circ$ . If the terminal ray of the resulting angle lies on the line $y = -x$ in the fourth quadrant, and the original angle $\theta$ has a measure of $d$ degrees, where $0 \leq d < 360$ , what is the value of $d$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 240

Cevap

The value of

d

is 240.

A terminal ray in the fourth quadrant lying on the line

y = -x

forms a

315^\circ

angle in standard position. The first rotation is counterclockwise by

\frac{7\pi}{6}

radians, which is equivalent to

\frac{7\pi}{6} \times \frac{180^\circ}{\pi} = 210^\circ

. The second rotation is clockwise by

135^\circ

, representing a decrease of

135^\circ

. Therefore, the total transformation is

\theta + 210^\circ - 135^\circ = 315^\circ

. Solving for

\theta

gives

\theta + 75^\circ = 315^\circ

, which simplifies to

\theta = 240^\circ

. Since

240^\circ

lies in the interval

[0, 360)

, the value of

d

is 240.

1

Determine the angle in standard position for a terminal ray on the line

y = -x

in the fourth quadrant.

The terminal ray corresponds to an angle of

315^\circ

(or any angle coterminal with it).

The line

y = -x

in the fourth quadrant makes an angle of

45^\circ

below the positive

x

-axis, which corresponds to

360^\circ - 45^\circ = 315^\circ

in standard position.

2

Convert the counterclockwise rotation from radians to degrees.

\frac{7\pi}{6} \text{ radians} = 210^\circ

.

To convert radians to degrees, multiply the angle in radians by

\frac{180^\circ}{\pi}

.

3

Express the rotations mathematically and set up the equation for

\theta

.

\theta + 210^\circ - 135^\circ = 315^\circ + 360^\circ n

(where

n

is an integer).

In standard position, counterclockwise rotations represent positive changes in angle measure, whereas clockwise rotations represent negative changes in angle measure.

4

Solve for

\theta

and apply the domain restriction

0 \leq d < 360

.

\theta = 240^\circ

, so

d = 240

The coordinates of point

The correct coordinates are found by calculating the circle's radius

R = 4\sqrt{3}

and identifying that the initial point

P(6, -2\sqrt{3})

-\frac{\pi}{6}

radians. Rotating counterclockwise by

\frac{5\pi}{6}

radians results in a new angle of

\frac{2\pi}{3}

radians (

120^\circ

). Using circular trigonometry,

x = R\cos(120^\circ) = -2\sqrt{3}

and

y = R\sin(120^\circ) = 6

(-2\sqrt{3}, 6)

The radius of the circle is needed to determine the coordinates of the rotated point

Q

on the same circle.

Determine the initial angle

\theta_P

Since

\cos(\theta_P) = \frac{6}{4\sqrt{3}} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

\sin(\theta_P) = \frac{-2\sqrt{3}}{4\sqrt{3}} = -\frac{1}{2}

, the point lies in the fourth quadrant with

\theta_P = -\frac{\pi}{6}

radians (or

Finding the initial position in standard angle form allows us to apply the rotation.

3

Calculate the new angle

\theta_Q

after the counterclockwise rotation of

\frac{5\pi}{6}

radians.

\theta_Q = -\frac{\pi}{6} + \frac{5\pi}{6} = \frac{4\pi}{6} = \frac{2\pi}{3}

radians.

Adding the counterclockwise rotation angle to the initial angle gives the new standard position angle of the terminal ray.

A pendulum swings through an angle of $40^\circ$ , and the tip of the pendulum travels an arc of length $8\pi$ inches. What is the length of the pendulum, in inches?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 36

Cevap

36

To find the length of the pendulum, which represents the radius

r

of the circular path it sweeps, we can use the arc length formula

s = r\theta

, where

s

is the arc length and

\theta

is the central angle in radians. First, convert the given angle from degrees to radians:

\theta = 40^\circ \times \frac{\pi}{180^\circ} = \frac{2\pi}{9}

radians. Next, substitute the arc length

s = 8\pi

and the angle

\theta = \frac{2\pi}{9}

into the formula:

8\pi = r \left(\frac{2\pi}{9}\right)

. Solving for

r

by multiplying both sides by

\frac{9}{2\pi}

gives

r = 36

. Alternatively, you can use the ratio of the sector's central angle to the total angle of a circle:

\frac{40^\circ}{360^\circ} = \frac{1}{9}

. This means the arc length is

\frac{1}{9}

of the circumference of the circle:

8\pi = \frac{1}{9}(2\pi r)

. Dividing both sides by

2\pi

yields

4 = \frac{1}{9}r

, so

r = 36

.

Angle $A$ has a measure of $d$ degrees, and angle $B$ has a measure of $r$ radians. The sum of the degree measure of angle $A$ and the degree equivalent of the measure of angle $B$ is $180$ . If the measure of angle $A$ , in degrees, is $3$ times the degree equivalent of the measure of angle $B$ , and $r = k\pi$ , what is the value of $k$ ?

Cevap: 0.25

Cevap

The value of

k

is

0.25

(or

\frac{1}{4}

).

The correct answer is

0.25

(or

\frac{1}{4}

). To find this, we solve the system of equations representing the degree relationship:

d + D_B = 180

and

d = 3D_B

, where

D_B

is the degree equivalent of angle

B

. This gives

D_B = 45

. Converting

45^\circ

to radians by multiplying by

\frac{\pi}{180}

gives

\frac{\pi}{4}

radians, which means the coefficient

k

is

0.25

.

1

Set up a system of equations using the given information.

d + D_B = 180

and

d = 3D_B

, where

d

is the degree measure of angle

A

and

D_B

is the degree equivalent of angle

B

.

To translate the verbal descriptions of the relationships between the angle measures into mathematical equations.

2

Solve the system of equations for

D_B

.

D_B = 45

Substituting

d = 3D_B

into the first equation yields

3D_B + D_B = 180

, which simplifies to

4D_B = 180

. Dividing both sides by

4

gives

D_B = 45

.

3

Convert the degree measure of angle

B

to radians.

r = \frac{\pi}{4}

radians

To convert degrees to radians, multiply the degree measure by

\frac{\pi}{180}

. This gives

45 \times \frac{\pi}{180} = \frac{\pi}{4}

.

4

Find the value of

k

from the expression

r = k\pi

.

k = 0.25

(or

\frac{1}{4}

)

Since

r = \frac{\pi}{4} = 0.25\pi

, comparing this to

r = k\pi

shows that

k = 0.25

.

In the $xy$ -plane, an angle $\theta$ is in standard position. The terminal ray of the angle is rotated counterclockwise by $\frac{7\pi}{6}$ radians, and then rotated clockwise by $45^\circ$ . If the terminal ray of the resulting angle lies on the positive $y$ -axis, which of the following could be the value of $\theta$ , in degrees?

15^\circ

195^\circ

255^\circ

285^\circ

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $285^\circ$

Cevap

The value of

\theta

could be

285^\circ

.

To find the value of

\theta

, we first convert the counterclockwise rotation of

\frac{7\pi}{6}

radians into degrees. Multiplying

\frac{7\pi}{6}

by

\frac{180}{\pi}

yields

210^\circ

. A counterclockwise rotation increases the angle measure, so we add

210^\circ

. A clockwise rotation decreases the angle measure, so we subtract

45^\circ

. The resulting angle is

\theta + 210^\circ - 45^\circ = \theta + 165^\circ

. Since the terminal ray of the resulting angle lies on the positive

y

-axis, it is coterminal with

90^\circ

. Setting

\theta + 165^\circ = 90^\circ + 360^\circ k

for an integer

k

gives

\theta = -75^\circ + 360^\circ k

. For

k = 1

, we get

\theta = 285^\circ

, which is the correct value.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Convert the counterclockwise rotation from radians to degrees.

\frac{7\pi}{6} \times \frac{180}{\pi} = 210^\circ

To work with degrees consistently, we convert the radian measure of the rotation using the conversion factor

\frac{180}{\pi}

.

2

Set up the equation for the final angle position using the directions of rotation.

Final angle =

\theta + 210^\circ - 45^\circ = \theta + 165^\circ

Counterclockwise rotations are positive (added to

\theta

) and clockwise rotations are negative (subtracted from the result).

3

Relate the final angle to the positive

y

-axis and solve for

\theta

.

\theta + 165^\circ = 90^\circ + 360^\circ k \implies \theta = -75^\circ + 360^\circ k

. For

k = 1

,

\theta = 285^\circ

.

The positive

y

-axis corresponds to

90^\circ

in standard position. Solving for

\theta

and adding multiples of

360^\circ

yields the possible measures of the starting angle.

In a circle with center $O$ , the central angle $AOB$ has a measure of $\frac{4\pi}{5}$ radians. Angle $BOC$ is adjacent to angle $AOB$ such that they form a straight line. What is the degree measure of angle $BOC$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 36

Cevap

The degree measure of angle

BOC

is 36.

Angles

AOB

and

BOC

form a straight line, which means they are supplementary and their measures add up to

180^\circ

(or

\pi

radians). Since angle

AOB

measures

\frac{4\pi}{5}

radians, we can convert this measure to degrees first by multiplying by

\frac{180^\circ}{\pi}

:

\frac{4\pi}{5} \times \frac{180^\circ}{\pi} = 4 \times 36^\circ = 144^\circ

. To find the degree measure of the supplementary angle

BOC

, subtract

144^\circ

from

180^\circ

, giving

180^\circ - 144^\circ = 36^\circ

. Alternatively, the calculation can be performed in radians first:

\pi - \frac{4\pi}{5} = \frac{\pi}{5}

radians, and then converting

\frac{\pi}{5}

radians to degrees:

\frac{\pi}{5} \times \frac{180^\circ}{\pi} = 36^\circ

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the relationship between the two adjacent angles.

The sum of the measures of angles

AOB

and

BOC

is

\pi

radians or

180^\circ

.

Since the adjacent angles

AOB

and

BOC

form a straight line, they are supplementary.

2

Calculate the measure of angle

BOC

in radians.

Angle

BOC

measures

\frac{\pi}{5}

radians.

Subtract the measure of angle

AOB

from the straight line measure:

\pi - \frac{4\pi}{5} = \frac{\pi}{5}

radians.

3

Convert the radian measure of angle

BOC

to degrees.

The degree measure is 36.

Multiply the radian measure by the conversion factor

\frac{180^\circ}{\pi}

:

\frac{\pi}{5} \times \frac{180}{\pi} = 36^\circ

.

A circular dial on a vintage radio is rotated by $\frac{5\pi}{8}$ radians to tune to a specific station. If the dial is then rotated by an additional $45^\circ$ in the same direction, what is the total angle of rotation, in radians, of the dial?

\frac{3\pi}{4}

\frac{7\pi}{8}

\frac{9\pi}{8}

\frac{\pi}{2}

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $\frac{7\pi}{8}$

Cevap

The correct answer is

\frac{7\pi}{8}

radians.

To find the total angle of rotation in radians, the rotation of

45^\circ

must first be converted to radians by multiplying by

\frac{\pi}{180^\circ}

, which yields

\frac{\pi}{4}

radians. Expressed with a common denominator of

8

, this is equivalent to

\frac{2\pi}{8}

radians. Adding this to the initial rotation of

\frac{5\pi}{8}

radians gives a total rotation of

\frac{5\pi}{8} + \frac{2\pi}{8} = \frac{7\pi}{8}

radians.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Convert the additional rotation angle of

45^\circ

into radians.

Since

180^\circ = \pi

radians, the conversion is

45^\circ \times \frac{\pi}{180^\circ} = \frac{\pi}{4}

radians.

To find the total rotation angle in radians, both individual angles must be in the same unit of measure.

2

Add the first rotation angle of

\frac{5\pi}{8}

radians to the converted second rotation angle of

\frac{\pi}{4}

radians.

First, express

\frac{\pi}{4}

with a common denominator of

8

:

\frac{\pi}{4} = \frac{2\pi}{8}

. Then, add the two fractions:

\frac{5\pi}{8} + \frac{2\pi}{8} = \frac{7\pi}{8}

radians.

The total angle of rotation is the sum of the two sequential rotations in the same direction.

To find the sum of angles given in different units, convert the angle measured in degrees to radians using the conversion factor

\frac{\pi \text{ radians}}{180^\circ}

, and then find the sum of the two radian values using a common denominator.
