goal:tan^5x=tanx(sec²x-2sec²x+1)

proof: from l.h.s to r.h.s

tan^5x=(tanx)^5=((tanx)(tan²x)(tan²x))

from trigonometry identity

(tan²x)=sec²x-1

tan^5x=(tanx(sec²x-1)(sec²x-1))

=(tanx(sec^4x-sec²x-sec²x+1))

=(tanx(sec^4x-2sec²x+1))

proved

U is the midpoint of line segment XY. if XU=6x-7 and UY=4x+9, find the value of x and the measure of XY.
n200080 [17]

Answer:

Since U is the midpoint of XY,XU = UY\\or, 6x-7 = 4x+9\\or, 6x - 4x = 7+9\\or, 2x = 16\\or, x = 8\\XY = XU +UY = 6x - 7 + 4x +9 = 10x+2 = 10(8) +2 = 82

1, 3, 7, 15, 31 next two terms in the nsequence
alexira [117]

1 + 2^1 = 3

3 + 2^2 = 7

7 + 2^3 = 15

15 + 2^4 = 31

31 + 2^5 = 63

63 + 2^6 = 127

so the next two terms in the sequence 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, is 63 and 127.
