Find the exact value given that sin A = -4/5 with A in quadrant IV
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "Since sin = y/4, y = -4 and r = 5
\n" ); document.write( "Then x = sqrt[5^2-4^2] = sqrt[9] = 3
\n" ); document.write( "So cos(A) = 3/5
\n" ); document.write( "======================================
\n" ); document.write( "Cos 2A = cos^2(A)-sin^2(A) = (3/5)^2 - (4/5)^2 = -7/25
\n" ); document.write( "=========================================================
