Root 3 /sin 20 - 1/cos 20

= (root3 cos 20 - sin 20 )/ (sin 20 cos 20)
(multiplying and dividing by 2)
=  2* (root3/2 cos 20 -1/2 sin 20)/ (sin 20 cos 20)

now sin 20 cos 20  = (2 sin 20 cos 20)/2 = (sin 40)/2
and writing root3/2 = sin 60, 1/2 = cos 60

= 2* (sin 60 cos 20 - cos 60 sin 20)/ (sin 40)/2

= 4* (sin (60-20))/sin 40

= 4* (sin 40)/sin 40
=4

Hello,

1) Rappels:

all angles are in degree.

cos(a+b)=cos(a)cos(b)-sin(a)sin(b)
2sin(a)cos(a)=sin(2a)
sin(a)=cos(90-a)
cos(30)=√3/2
sin(30)=1/2
2)
√3 cos(20)-sin(20)=2(√3/2 cos(20)-1/2 sin(20)
=2*(cos(30) *sin(20)-sin(30) sin(20))=2 cos(30+20)=2 cos(50)

sin(20) cos(20)=1/2 cos(40)=1/2 cos(50)

<span>√3 (cosec (20))-sec (20) = √3 /sin(20)-1/cos(20)
=[√3*cos(20)-sin(20)]/(sin(20)cos(20))
=2 cos(50)/ (1/2cos(50))=4

A ship leaves port and travels due west for 30 knots, then changes course to S 30° W and travels 50 more knots. Find the bearing
leva [86]

Answer:

  232°

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of ways to find the desired direction. Perhaps the most straightforward is to add up the coordinates of the travel vectors.

  30∠270° +50∠210° = 30(cos(270°), sin(270°)) +50(cos(210°), sin(210°))

  = (0, -30) +(-43.301, -25) = (-43.301, -55)

Then the angle from port is ...

  arctan(-55/-43.301) ≈ 231.79° . . . . . . . 3rd quadrant angle

The bearing of the ship from port is about 232°.

<em>Comment on the problem statement</em>

The term "knot" is conventionally used to indicate a measure of speed (nautical mile per hour), not distance. It is derived from the use of a knotted rope to estimate speed. Knots on the rope were typically 47 ft 3 inches apart. As a measure of distance 30 knots is about 1417.5 feet.

X2 - 4x + 3 = 0<br> lesser x =<br> greater x =<br> o
Levart [38]

Answer:

lesser x is 1

greater x is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to solve the equation so as to get the bigger and the lesser x values

We proceed as follows;

x^2 -4x + 3 = 0

x^2 - x-3x + 3 = 0

x(x-1) -3(x-1) = 0

(x-3)(x-1) = 0

x = 3

or x = 1

Greater x is 3

lesser x is 1
