Consider a triangle ABC, right angle at B. The length of the base, AB=

1.	Consider a triangle ABC, right angle at B. The length of the base, AB= 4cm the length of perpendicular BC= 3cm. Find the value of sec A.
Answer» Answer: sec A = 5/4 Explanation: FIRST find the LENGTH of the HYPOTENUSE side as it p^2 + b^2 = h^2 . then as we KNOW that sec A = h/b so it IMPLIES sec A = 5/4

Answer:

sec A = 5/4

Explanation:

FIRST find the LENGTH of the HYPOTENUSE side as it p^2 + b^2 = h^2 . then as we KNOW that sec A = h/b so it IMPLIES sec A = 5/4
