Using equivalent and fundamenta. angles, we find that:

a) \sin{\left(\frac{4\pi}{3}\right)} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

b) \cos{\left(\frac{11\pi}{3}\right)} = \frac{1}{2}

c) \sin{\left(-\frac{5\pi}{3}\right)} = -\frac{1}{2}

d) \cos{\left(-\frac{2\pi}{3}\right)} = -\frac{1}{2}

Item a:

\frac{4\pi}{3} is an angle in the third quadrant, as \pi < \frac{4\pi}{3} < \frac{3\pi}{2}

It's equivalent in the first quadrant is: \frac{4\pi}{3} - \pi = \frac{\pi}{3}, which is a fundamental angle, which means that it's values of sine, cosine and tangent are known.

Sine in the third quadrant is negative, while in the first is positive, thus:

\sin{\left(\frac{4\pi}{3}\right)} = -\sin{\left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right)} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

Item b:

\frac{11\pi}{3} = 2\pi + \frac{5\pi}{3}

Thus, it is equivalent to an angle of \frac{5\pi}{3}, which is in the fourth quadrant.

It's equivalent on the first quadrant is:

2\pi - \frac{5\pi}{3} = \frac{\pi}{3}

Cosine in the fourth quadrant is positive, just as in the first, thus:

\cos{\left(\frac{11\pi}{3}\right)} = \cos{\left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right)} = \frac{1}{2}

Item c:

2\pi - \frac{5\pi}{6} = \frac{7\pi}{6}

Which is a angle in the third quadrant.

It's equivalent in the first is:

\frac{7\pi}{6} - \pi = \frac{\pi}{6}

Sine in the third quadrant is negative, while in the first is positive, thus:

\sin{\left(-\frac{5\pi}{6}\right)} = \sin{\left(\frac{7\pi}{6}\right)} = -\sin{\left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right)} = -\frac{1}{2}

Item d:

2\pi - \frac{2\pi}{3} = \frac{4\pi}{3}

Which is in the third quadrant.

Cosine in the third quadrant is negative, while in the first is positive, thus:

\cos{\left(\frac{-2\pi}{3}\right)} = \cos{\left(\frac{4\pi}{3}\right)} = -\cos{\left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right)} = -\frac{1}{2}

Use the order of operations to simplify the expression.<br> 4[3+3(5-1)]<br> What is the answer?
Nitella [24]

Answer:

\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{60}}}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Using PEMDAS rule

Parentheses, Exponents , Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction

\sf{4 [ 3 + 3(5 - 1) ]}

Subtract 1 from 5

\longrightarrow{ \sf{4 [3 + 3 \times 4  ]}}

Multiply the numbers : 3 and 4

\longrightarrow{ \sf{4 [ 3 + 12  ]}}

Add the numbers : 3 and 12

\longrightarrow{ \sf{4 \times 15}}

Multiply the numbers : 4 and 15

\longrightarrow{ \sf{60}}

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D
