Explain why sine of an angle greater than 180° and less than 360° is negative.

9514 1404 393

Explanation:

The sine of an angle in standard position is the y-coordinate of the intersection of its terminal ray with the unit circle. When the angle is in the range 180° < θ < 360°, that point of intersection is in quadrant III or IV, where y-coordinates are negative.

Alternative explanation:

That is where the sine curve is below the x-axis.

the answer is c. 23/3

step-by-step explanation:

since the sequence is geometric there is a common ratio r between consecutive terms, that is

r = 4 ÷ - 2 = - 2

r = - 8 ÷ 4 = - 2

r = 16 ÷ 8 = - 2

the next term - 13 must be incorrect as it should be - 32 for the sequence to be geometric.

the first 4 terms are therefore geometric with common ratio r = - 2
