Find the angles between 0 and 360 inclusive which satisfy
sin x = 0.7425Answer:
sin x = 0.7425
basic angle = 47.94 x = 47.9 or x = 180 - 47.94
= 132.06
or 132.1
tan x = −1.37Answer: (1st step: find B.A for tan x = 1.37)
basic angle = 53.87
x = 180 − 53.87 = 126.13
or x = 360 − 53.87 = 306.13
x = 126.1 or 306.1
Find the angles between 0 and 360 inclusive which satisfy
cos (x − 27) = − 0.145
Answer:
0 < x < 360
− 27 < x − 27 < 333
basic angle = 81.66
x − 27 = 180 − 81.66 = 98.34 x = 125.34
or x − 27 = 180 + 81.66 = 261.66 x = 288.66
x = 125.3 or 288.7
Find the angles between 0 and 360 inclusive which satisfy
