Root 3 cosec140° - sec140°=4prove that​

Mathematics

Lorico [155]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are to show that \sqrt{3} cosec140^{0} - sec140^{0} = 4\\

<u>Proof:</u>

From trigonometry identity;

cosec \theta = \frac{1}{sin\theta} \\sec\theta = \frac{1}{cos\theta}

\sqrt{3} cosec140^{0} - sec140^{0} \\= \frac{\sqrt{3} }{sin140} - \frac{1}{cos140} \\= \frac{\sqrt{3}cos140-sin140 }{sin140cos140} \\

From trigonometry, 2sinAcosA = Sin2A

= \frac{\sqrt{3}cos140-sin140 }{sin140cos140} \\\\=  \frac{\sqrt{3}cos140-sin140 }{sin280/2}\\=  \frac{4(\sqrt{3}/2cos140-1/2sin140) }{2sin280}\\\\= \frac{4(\sqrt{3}/2cos140-1/2sin140) }{sin280}\\since sin420 = \sqrt{3}/2 \ and \ cos420 = 1/2  \\ then\\\frac{4(sin420cos140-cos420sin140) }{sin280}

Also note that sin(B-C) = sinBcosC - cosBsinC

sin420cos140 - cos420sin140 = sin(420-140)

The resulting equation becomes;

\frac{4(sin(420-140)) }{sin280}

= \frac{4sin280}{sin280}\\ = 4 \ Proved!

Numbers 50, 42, 35, 2x + 10, 2x -8, 12, 11,8 are written in descending order and their median is 25, find x.
Natalija [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

25=mean of (5th+6th value)

25=1/2*(2x-8+2x+10)

25=1/2*4x+2

4x+2=50

4x=48

x=12

What is the estimate answer and the exact answer of 17/10 ÷2 4/5
OLEGan [10]
Both 17/10 and 2 4/5 should be rounded up in preparation for this estimation.

17/10 is close to 2 and 2 4/5 is close to 3.  Thus, your estimated answer should be
                     2/3, or approx. 0.6666....

Exact answer:    divide 17/10 by 14/5.  LCD is 10, so convert 14/5 to 28/10.

Now divide 17/10 by 28/10.  Answer:  17/28 = approx.   =  0.607 approx.

These two results are comparable:   0.6666....  and 0.6071 ....
