- Suppose the angle formed by the line y = 3x and the positive x-axis is 6. Find the tangent of (Figure 1). Figure 1arrow_forwardUse the information given in Figure 1 to find x, h, s, and r if y=3. (Note: s is the distance from A to D. and y is the distance from D to B .)arrow_forwardCircles O, P, and Q are tangent as shown at points X, Y, and Z. Being as specific as possible, explain what type of triangle PQO is if: a OX=2,PY=3,QZ=1 b OX=2,PY=3,QZ=2arrow_forward
- A point that moves on a coordinate line is in simple when its distance d from the origin at time t is given by either d=asintord=acost.arrow_forwardThe sides of each of the following right triangles are labeled with different letters. State the ratio of each of the six functions in relation to 1for each of the triangles. For example, for the triangle in Exercise 23, sin1yr,cos1xr,tan1yx,cot1xy,sec1rx,and csc1ry.arrow_forward
