Answer:

The factored form is (sin x +2)(sin x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the trigonometric function \sin^2 x +\sinx-2

We can factor this by AC method. In AC method we multiply the term a and c and then write the middle term b in such a way that the sum/difference is equal to the product 'ac'

Using the method, we can write sinx as 2sinx -sinx

\sin^2 x +2\sinx-\sin x-2

Now, we group the first two terms and the last two terms

(\sin^2 x +2\sinx)+(-\sin x-2)

Now, we take GCF from each group

\sin x(\sin x +2)-1(\sin x+2)

Factor out (sinx+2)

(\sin x +2)(\sin x-1)

Therefore, the factored form is (sin x +2)(sin x-1)

Answer:

The factor form is (\sin x+2)(\sin x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Algebraic expression \sin^2x+\sin x-2

To find : Factor the algebraic expression in terms of a single trigonometric function ?

Solution :

Algebraic expression \sin^2x+\sin x-2

Let \sin x=y

So, y^2+y-2

To factor the expression we equate it to zero,

y^2+y-2=0

Apply middle term split,

y^2+2y-y-2=0

y(y+2)-1(y+2)=0

(y+2)(y-1)=0

Substitute the value of y, y=\sin x

(\sin x+2)(\sin x-1)=0

The factor form is (\sin x+2)(\sin x-1)

A boat traveled 27 miles in 2 hours. At this, how many miles will the boat travel in 1/2 hour?
Fantom [35]
You do distance over time to get the rate, so you'd do 27/2= 13.5mph then divide that in half since you're asking for the distance traveled in half that hour so you do 13.5/2 and you get 6.75 miles traveled in half and hour.
