Question

The point P(k, 24) is 25 units from the origin. If P lies on the terminal arm of an angle, theta, in standard position, 0 < theta < 360,determine the measure of theta.

Unsure how to go on from here. I'd appreciate if someone can guide me through the first few steps

Thank you

Answer 1

sinTheta=24/25

theta=arcsin(24/25)

Answer 2

Thank you! can you check my answer please?

I get 74 degrees and 106 degrees

Answer 3

in round numbers yes. I would have taken the asnwers to nearest tenth of degrees.

Answer 4
