Algebra.Com's Answer #127697 by solver91311(24713)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! 1. The degrees part you can see by inspection, it is just the integer part of -165.852. Then we have 0.852 left over. Since there are 60 minutes in a degree, we should hav 0.852*60 degrees. The calculator says: 51.12. Take the integer part again to give you the number of minutes, 51. Now ther is 0.12 left over. There are 60 seconds in a minute, so we have 0.12*60 seconds. Calculator says: 7.2. Putting it all together -165.852° = -165° 51' 7.2\"\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2. Turn the process around. 28° 42' 13\" 13\" = (13/60)' or 0.217 (roughly) so that means we have 28° 42.217' But 42.217' = (42.217/60)° or 0.704 (again, roughly) so that means we have 28.704°\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3. Use integer division (the kind you first learned to do where you came up with a quotient and a remainder) 570°/360° = 1 r 210. The remainder is the measure of the desired coterminal angle. So 210° is the measure required. Quadrant I is from 0° to 90°, Quadrant II is from 90° to 180°, Quadrant III is from 180° to 270°, and Quadrant IV is what is left. 180° < 210° < 270°, so your angle is in Quadrant III.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "4. The first thing you need is the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle given by \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " |
