Hey there :)

- tan²x + sec²x = 1    or    1 + tan²x = sec²x

sin²x + cos²x = 1 
Divide the whole by cos²x

\frac{sin^2x}{cos^2x} + \frac{cos^2x}{cos^2x} = \frac{1}{cos^2x}

\frac{sinx}{cosx} = tanx so \frac{sin^2x}{cos^2x} = tan^2x
and
\frac{1}{cosx} = secx so \frac{1}{cos^2x} = sec^2x

Therefore,
tan²x + 1 = sec²x
Take tan²x to the other side {You will have the same answer}

1 = - tan²x = sec²x or sec²x - tanx = 1

If p, q are zeroes of polynomial f(x) =2x^2-7x+3,find the value of p^2+q^2​
Elza [17]

Answer:

p^2 + q^2 = 22/9.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a quadratic function ax^2 + bx + c if the zeroes are A and B then

A + B = -b/a and AB =  c/a.

2x^2 - 7x + 3

Now p and q are the zeroes of the above function so

p + q =  7/3 and pq = 3/2.

Now p^2 + q^2 = (p + q)^2 - 2pq

= (7/3)^2 - 2* 3/2

=  49/9 - 3

= 49/4 -  27/9

= 22/9.
