Which is the graph of f(x) = x2 – 2x + 3?
1 answer:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We cannot factor this function out which tells us that there are no zeros. The graph backs this up because we can see that there are none. The easiest way to graph this would start by plugging in points and making a table for yourself.
Lets start by plugging in -1.
(-1)^2-2(-1)+3 =6, this means we have a point at (-1,6).
Now lets plug in 0.
(0)^2-2(0)+3= 3 (0,3)
For plugging in 1
(1)^2-2(1)+3=2 (1,2) (this happens to be the vertex)
And lastly lets plug in 2
(2)^2-2(2)+3=3 (2,3)
Depending on how many points are needed, keep plugging in numbers like we did above.

First lets see the pythagorean identities
So if we have to solve for sin theta , first we move cos theta to left side and then take square root to both sides, that is
Now we need to check the sign of sin theta
First we have to remember the sign of sin, cos , tan in the quadrants. In first quadrant , all are positive. In second quadrant, only sin and cosine are positive. In third quadrant , only tan and cot are positive and in the last quadrant , only cos and sec are positive.
So if theta is in second quadrant, then we have to positive sign but if theta is in third or fourth quadrant, then we have to use negative sign .
