Let theta be an angle in standard position, $$\displaystyle{\sin{\theta}}{<}{0},{\cos{\theta}}{>}{0}$$. Name the quadrant in which theta lies.

as we know that:
(1)in first quadrant all trigonometric functions are positive.
(2)in second quadrant sine and cosecant trigonometric functions are positive and rest trigonometric functions are negative.
(3)in third quadrant tangent and cotangent trigonometric functions are positive and rest trigonometric functions are negative.
(4)in fourth quadrant cosine and secant trigonometric functions are positive and rest trigonometric functions are negative.
as $$\displaystyle{\sin{\theta}}{<}{0},{\cos{\theta}}{>}{0},$$
therefore we can say that the angle theta lies in the fourth quadrant.

The bulk density of soil is defined as the mass of dry solidsper unit bulk volume. A high bulk density implies a compact soilwith few pores. Bulk density is an important factor in influencing root development, seedling emergence, and aeration. Let X denotethe bulk density of Pima clay loam. Studies show that X is normally distributed with $$\displaystyle\mu={1.5}$$ and $$\displaystyle\sigma={0.2}\frac{{g}}{{c}}{m}^{{3}}$$.
(a) What is thedensity for X? Sketch a graph of the density function. Indicate onthis graph the probability that X lies between 1.1 and 1.9. Findthis probability.
(b) Find the probability that arandomly selected sample of Pima clay loam will have bulk densityless than $$\displaystyle{0.9}\frac{{g}}{{c}}{m}^{{3}}$$.
(c) Would you be surprised if a randomly selected sample of this type of soil has a bulkdensity in excess of $$\displaystyle{2.0}\frac{{g}}{{c}}{m}^{{3}}$$? Explain, based on theprobability of this occurring.
(d) What point has the property that only 10% of the soil samples have bulk density this high orhigher?
(e) What is the moment generating function for X?
Consider the curves in the first quadrant that have equationsy=Aexp(7x), where A is a positive constant. Different valuesof A give different curves. The curves form a family,F. Let P=(6,6). Let C be the number of the family Fthat goes through P.
A. Let y=f(x) be the equation of C. Find f(x).
B. Find the slope at P of the tangent to C.
C. A curve D is a perpendicular to C at P. What is the slope of thetangent to D at the point P?
D. Give a formula g(y) for the slope at (x,y) of the member of Fthat goes through (x,y). The formula should not involve A orx.
E. A curve which at each of its points is perpendicular to themember of the family F that goes through that point is called anorthogonal trajectory of F. Each orthogonal trajectory to Fsatisfies the differential equation dy/dx = -1/g(y), where g(y) isthe answer to part D.
Find a function of h(y) such that x=h(y) is the equation of theorthogonal trajectory to F that passes through the point P.
A golf ball lies 2.00 m directly south of the hole on a levelgreen. On the first putt, the ball travels 3.00 m along astraight-line path at an angle of 5 degrees east of north; on thesecond putt, it travels a straight-line distance of 1.20 m at anangle of 6 degrees south of west.
What would be the displacement ofa third putt that would put the ball in the hole?
The answer in the back of the book is 1.3 m at 43 degreessouth of east. How do I get that?
