<span>The ratio of 2 similar areas is the square of the ratio of their RADIUS or (sides)
R²=(2/3)² = 4/9 This should be the answer

Whereas R³ = (2/3)³ = 8/27 is the ratio of their volume & not area

Cos ( α ) = √ 6/ 6 and sin ( β ) = √ 2/4 . Find tan ( α − β )

Zina [86]

Answer:

$\purple{ \bold{ \tan( \alpha - \beta ) = 1.00701798}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\cos( \alpha ) = \frac{ \sqrt{6} }{6} = \frac{1}{ \sqrt{6} } \\ \\ \therefore \: \sin( \alpha ) = \sqrt{1 - { \cos}^{2} ( \alpha ) } \\ \\ = \sqrt{1 - \bigg( {\frac{1}{ \sqrt{6} } \bigg )}^{2} } \\ \\ = \sqrt{1 - {\frac{1}{ {6} }}} \\ \\ = \sqrt{ {\frac{6 - 1}{ {6} }}} \\ \\ \red{\sin( \alpha ) = \sqrt{ { \frac{5}{ {6} }}} } \\ \\ \tan( \alpha ) = \frac{\sin( \alpha ) }{\cos( \alpha ) } = \sqrt{5} \\ \\ \sin( \beta ) = \frac{ \sqrt{2} }{4} \\ \\ \implies \: \cos( \beta ) = \sqrt{ \frac{7}{8} } \\ \\ \tan( \beta ) = \frac{\sin( \beta ) }{\cos( \beta ) } = \frac{1}{ \sqrt{7} } \\ \\ \tan( \alpha - \beta ) = \frac{ \tan \alpha - \tan \beta }{1 + \tan \alpha . \tan \beta} \\ \\ = \frac{ \sqrt{5} - \frac{1}{ \sqrt{7} } }{1 + \sqrt{5} . \frac{1}{ \sqrt{7} } } \\ \\ = \frac{ \sqrt{35} - 1 }{ \sqrt{7} + \sqrt{5} } \\ \\ \purple{ \bold{ \tan( \alpha - \beta ) = 1.00701798}}$
