Algebra.Com's Answer #405436 by lwsshak3(11628)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! if cos(theta) = -1/3 and theta is in quadrant 3. Evaluate sin2(theta) \n" ); document.write( "use x for theta\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "given cosx=-1/3=adj side/hypotenuse \n" ); document.write( "opp side =-√[(hypotenuse^2)-(adj side^2)]=-√(9-1)=-√8 \n" ); document.write( "sinx=-√8/3 \n" ); document.write( "sin(2x)=2sinxcosx=2*-√8/3*-1/3=2√8/9=4√2/9 \n" ); document.write( " |
