Metimes we do not always need to give detailed answers to problems - we just want a rough idea. When we are faced with a long number, we could round it off to the nearest thousand, or nearest million. And when we get a long decimal answer on a calculator, we could round it off to a certain number of decimal places.<span>Another method of giving an approximated answer is to round off using significant figures.</span>

<span> 1. Any non zero digit is significant. exg 1234=4 sig figs

2. Zeros between digits (bracketed zeros) are always significant. exg 1.01.001= 6 sig figs

3. zeros at the end of the answer when no decimal point are not significant exg 500=1 sig fig

4. zeros at the end of the answer when a decimal point is specified are significant. exg 500.=3 sig figs</span>
2.00=4 sig figs

Please help me with these, oh sweet jesus

Answer:

77.  \cot^{6} x = \cot^{4} x \csc^{2}x - \cot^{4} xProved

78.  \sec^{4}x \tan^{2} x = \sec^{2}x [\tan^{2}x + \tan^{4}x ] Proved

79. \cos^{3} x\sin^{2} x = [\sin^{2}x - \sin^{4}x] \cos x Proved.

80. \sin^{4}x - \cos^{4}x = 1 - 2\cos^{2}x + 2 \cos^{4} x Proved.

Step-by-step explanation:

77. Left hand side

= \cot^{6} x

= \cot^{4} x \times \cot^{2} x

= \cot^{4}x [\csc^{2}x - 1]  

{Since we know, \csc^{2} x - \cot^{2}x = 1}

= \cot^{4} x \csc^{2}x - \cot^{4} x  

= Right hand side (Proved)

78. Left hand side

= \sec^{4}x \tan^{2} x

= \sec^{2} x [1 + \tan^{2}x] \tan^{2} x  

{Since \sec^{2}x - \tan^{2}x = 1}

= \sec^{2}x [\tan^{2}x + \tan^{4}x ]

= Right hand side (Proved)

79. Left hand side  

= \cos^{3} x\sin^{2} x

= \cos x[1 - \sin^{2} x] \sin^{2} x

{Since \sin^{2}x + \cos^{2} x = 1}

= [\sin^{2}x - \sin^{4}x] \cos x

= Right hand side

80. Left hand side  

= \sin^{4}x - \cos^{4}x

= [\sin^{2}x + \cos^{2}x]^{2} - 2\sin^{2} x \cos^{2}x

{Since \sin^{2}x + \cos^{2} x = 1}

= 1 - 2\cos^{2} x[1 - \cos^{2}x ]

= 1 - 2\cos^{2}x + 2 \cos^{4} x

= Right hand side. (Proved)
