Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

radius=16/2=8 units

d=12 cm

reqd. length=√(12²-8²)=√(144-64)=√80=4√5 units

Find an equation for the nth term in the following sequence:<br> 2, 8, 32, 128, 512...

seraphim [82]

Answer:

$a_n = 2(4) ^{n-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence shown matches that of a geometric sequence of radius 4. To prove it, divide the term $\frac{a_{n + 1}}{a_n}$ and check that $\frac{a_{n + 1}}{a_n}=4$

Then the formula that represents this sequence is:

$a_n = a_1(r)^{n-1}$

Where $a_1$ is the first term of the series = 2 and $r$ is the radius of convergence = 4.

Then the equation is:

$a_n = 2(4) ^{n-1}$

Prove that sin3a-cos3a/sina+cosa=2sin2a-1

Sloan [31]

Answer:

$\frac{sin(3a)-cos(3a)}{sin(a)+cos(a)} =2sin(2a)-1$

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given

$\frac{sin(3a)-cos(3a)}{sin(a)+cos(a)} =2sin(2a)-1$

we can simplify left side and make it equal to right side

we can use trig identity

$sin(3a)=3sin(a)-4sin^3(a)$

$cos(3a)=4cos^3(a)-3cos(a)$

now, we can plug values

$\frac{(3sin(a)-4sin^3(a))-(4cos^3(a)-3cos(a))}{sin(a)+cos(a)}$

now, we can simplify

$\frac{3sin(a)-4sin^3(a)-4cos^3(a)+3cos(a)}{sin(a)+cos(a)}$

$\frac{3sin(a)+3cos(a)-4sin^3(a)-4cos^3(a)}{sin(a)+cos(a)}$

$\frac{3(sin(a)+cos(a))-4(sin^3(a)+cos^3(a))}{sin(a)+cos(a)}$

now, we can factor it

$\frac{3(sin(a)+cos(a))-4(sin(a)+cos(a))(sin^2(a)+cos^2(a)-sin(a)cos(a)}{sin(a)+cos(a)}$

$\frac{(sin(a)+cos(a))[3-4(sin^2(a)+cos^2(a)-sin(a)cos(a)]}{sin(a)+cos(a)}$

we can use trig identity

$sin^2(a)+cos^2(a)=1$

$\frac{(sin(a)+cos(a))[3-4(1-sin(a)cos(a)]}{sin(a)+cos(a)}$

we can cancel terms

$=3-4(1-sin(a)cos(a))$

now, we can simplify it further

$=3-4+4sin(a)cos(a))$

$=-1+4sin(a)cos(a))$

$=4sin(a)cos(a)-1$

$=2\times 2sin(a)cos(a)-1$

now, we can use trig identity

$2sin(a)cos(a)=sin(2a)$

we can replace it

$=2sin(2a)-1$

so,

$\frac{sin(3a)-cos(3a)}{sin(a)+cos(a)} =2sin(2a)-1$
