True
<span>Cos(A+B)=CosACosB-SinASinB
therefore Cos(A+A)= CosACosA - SinASinA
= Cos^2A - Sin^2A</span>

For the solution/answer of this question, we will use the double angle formula which can be derived as follows:

cos(2a)=cos(a+a)=cos(a)\times cos(a)-sin(a)\times sin(a)=cos^2(a)-sin^2(a)

Now, the above expression can be simplified to:

cos(2a)=cos^2(a)-sin^2(a)=cos^2(a)-(1-cos^2(a)) (Because sin^2a=1-cos^2a)

Therefore, we can further simplify it to:

cos(2a)=cos^2a-1+cos^2a=2cos^2a-1 which is the proof which is required.

Thus, we have proved that:

cos(2a)=2cos^2a-1

Thus, this equality is true for all values of a.

URGENT<br>please find the mean and standard deviation too​ (number 6)
adell [148]

Answer:To calculate the standard deviation of those numbers:

1.Work out the Mean (the simple average of the numbers)

2.Then for each number: subtract the Mean and square the result.

3.Then work out the mean of those squared differences.

4.Take the square root of that and we are done!

What is the difference of 8 times a number r and 12?
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The difference of 8 times a number r and 12 is solved for a number r and is given by r=\frac{3}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given problem is the difference of 8 times a number r and 12

It can be written as

(8\times r)-12

To simplify the above expression :

8r-12

8r-12=0

8r-12+12=0+12 ( using addition property of equality )

8r=12

8r(\frac{1}{8})=12(\frac{1}{8}) (using division property of equality )

r=\frac{3}{2}

Therefore r=\frac{3}{2}

Therefore the difference of 8 times a number r and 12 is solved for a number r and is given by r=\frac{3}{2}
