The angular speed of a point on Earth is \(\frac{\pi}{12}\) radian per hour. The Equator lies on a circle of radius approximately 4000 miles. Find the linear velocity, in miles per hour, of \(\overline{\mathbf{a}}\) point on the Equator.
In Exercises \(115-116,\) convert each angle to \(D^{\circ} M^{\prime} S^{\prime \prime}\) form. Round your answer to the nearest second. $$ 50.42^{\circ} $$
Without drawing a graph, describe the behavior of the graph of \(y=\tan ^{-1} x .\) Mention the function's domain and range in your description.
Exercises \(127-129\) will help you prepare for the material covered in the next section. In each exercise, let \(\theta\) be an acute angle in a right triangle, as shown in the figure. These exercises require the use of the Pythagorean Theorem. If \(a=1\) and \(b=1,\) find the ratio of the length of the side opposite \(\theta\) to the length of the hypotenuse. Simplify the ratio by rationalizing the denominator.
Use a sketch to find the exact value of each expression. $$ \sin \left[\tan ^{-1}\left(-\frac{3}{4}\right)\right] $$
