I need help solving Double Angle Identities: Find the exact value, given that sin A = -4/5 with a in quadrant IV. cos 2A I also need help Solving Trigonometric Equations: Solve each equation for solutions in the interval [0, 360). Use either an algebraic method or a graphical method. tan x - cot x = 0 csc^2 ...continues

10 Trigonometry Application Word Problems : Angles and Lengths

1. Suppose that a boat leaves Jacksonville traveling at a bearing of 110o. It goes 30.0 km, and then travels 100.0 km at a bearing of 170o. How far is it from Jacksonville? 2. Suppose that I am trying to judge the distance across a lake. I stand facing some house on the opposite shore. I turn 95o to the left, and walk 20 me ...continues

Height question

While traveling across flat land, you notice a mountain directly in front of you. The angle of elevation to the peak is 2.5 degrees. After you drive 17 miles closer to the mountain, the angle of elevation is 9 degrees. Approximate the height of the mountain. (show all you work, including graphs)
