cosine theta will be equal to -4/5.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the angle will be 180 - arccos(4/5) = 143.1301024 degrees.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the equivalent angle in the first quadrant is equal to 180 - 143.1301024 degrees which is equal to 36.86989765 degrees.\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the triangle is a 3/4/5 triangle in the third quadrant.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "it is in the third quadrant because the adjcent side on the x-axis is negative and the opposite side on the y-axis is also negative.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the hypotenuse is always positive.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the hypotenuse is 5 because 3^2 + 4^2 = 9 + 16 = 25 and sqrt(25) = 5.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "this is based on pythagorus who says that a^2 + b^2 = c^2.\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the radius of your circle is 5, and so the equation of the circle becomes x^2 + y^2 = 25.\r
