Answer:

The two iterations of f(x) = 1.5598

Step-by-step explanation:

If we apply  Newton's iterations method, we get a new guess of a zero of a function, f(x), xₙ₊₁, using a previous guess of, xₙ.

xₙ₊₁ = xₙ - f(xₙ) / f'(xₙ)

Given;

f(xₙ) = cos x, then  f'(xₙ) = - sin x

cos x / - sin x = -cot x

substitute in "-cot x" into the equation

xₙ₊₁ = xₙ - (- cot x)

xₙ₊₁ = xₙ + cot x

x₁ = 0.7

first iteration

x₂ = 0.7 + cot (0.7)

x₂ =  0.7 + 1.18724

x₂ = 1.88724

 

second iteration

x₃ = 1.88724 + cot (1.88724)

x₃ = 1.88724 - 0.32744

x₃ = 1.5598

To four decimal places = 1.5598

Well since the triangle is split into 2 triangles and they both are the same size so BD on the bottom is 15 which means naturally BC must be 30. Five I'm not sure about

Solve for x <br><br> (5x-1) 8x
trapecia [35]

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is the figure of a kite.

Opposite sides are equal... (given)

Since, measures of the angles opposite to equal sides are equal.

Also, diagonals of a kite interests at right angles.

Therefore,

8x \degree + (5x - 1) \degree + 90 \degree = 180 \degree \\  \\  (8x + 5x - 1) \degree   = 180 \degree -  90 \degree\\  \\(13x - 1) \degree   = 90 \degree\\  \\ 13x - 1 = 90 \\  \\ 13x = 90 + 1 \\  \\ 13x = 91 \\  \\ x =  \frac{91}{13}  \\  \\ x = 7

Therefore,
