We will start off working on the right hand side.
<span>cot x - tan x </span>
<span>= [cos x / sin x] - [sin x / cos x] </span>
<span>= [(cos x)^ 2 - (sin x)^2] / [sin x cos x] </span>
<span>This is where it gets a bit tougher if you do not have your formula list with you. </span>
<span>(cos x)^ 2 - (sin x)^2 = cos(2x) </span>
<span>sin 2x = 2 sin x cos x </span>
<span>Note that by arranging the second formula, we will have sin x cos x = (1/2) sin 2x </span>
<span>Hence, we will get: </span>
<span>[(cos x)^ 2 - (sin x)^2] / [sin x cos x] </span>
<span>= [cos 2x] / (1/2)[sin 2x] </span>
<span>= 2[cos 2x] / [sin 2x] </span>
<span>= 2cot 2x </span>
Well we know that 1 inch is 2.54 cm. But how wide is .18? Lets do .18 x 2.54 to get 0.4572. Now lets add 2.54 + 0.4572 to get 2.9972. This means that the maximum width of the aorta is 2.9972 cm. Hope this helped :)
What you must do for this case is subtract both quantities and verify the final result.
We have then:
15 3 / 10-13 9/10 =
Rewriting
15.3 - 13.9 =
1.4 =
1 4/10
answer:
this month fell 1 4/10 more centimeters of rain
