Answer:

4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, for a right triangle with an internal angle x

tangent x = length of opposite side / length of adjacent side

in this case for angle F, the opposite side is DE and the adjacent side is DF

hence tan F = 8/6 = 4/3

Find The derivative of:(cosx/1+sinx)^3

forsale [732]

Answer:

$-\frac{3 \cdot cos^2x}{(1+sinx)^3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$y = (\frac{cosx}{1+sinx})^3\\\\\frac{dy}{dx} = 3 \cdot (\frac{cosx}{1+sinx})^2 \cdot \frac{dy}{dx}(\frac{cosx}{1+sinx})$ $[ y = x^n\ \ \ => \ \ \ \frac{dy}{dx} = b \cdot x^{n-1} \ ]$

$= 3 \cdot (\frac{cosx}{1+sinx})^2 \cdot \frac{(1+sin x(-sinx) - cosx(cosx)}{(1+sinx)^2}\\\\$ $[\ \frac{u}{v} = \frac{v \dcot u'- u \cdot v'}{v^2}\ ]$

$= 3 \cdot (\frac{cosx}{1+sinx})^2 \cdot \frac{-sin x-sin^2x- cos^2x}{(1+sinx)^2}\\\\= 3 \cdot (\frac{cosx}{1+sinx})^2 \cdot \frac{-sin x- (sin^2x+ cos^2x)}{(1+sinx)^2}\\\\= 3 \cdot (\frac{cosx}{1+sinx})^2 \cdot \frac{-sin x-1}{(1+sinx)^2}\\\\= 3 \cdot (\frac{cosx}{1+sinx})^2 \cdot \frac{-1 \cdot(sin x+1)}{(1+sinx)^2}\\\\= 3 \cdot (\frac{cosx}{1+sinx})^2 \cdot \frac{-1}{(1+sinx)}\\\\$

$= -3 \cdot \frac{cos^2x}{(1+sinx)^3}$

Answer: -16/65

Step-by-step explanation:

Drawing the right triangle (as attached) gives us that $\arctan \left(\frac{12}{5} \right)=\arcsin \left(\frac{12}{13} \right)$

Also, $-\arcsin \left(-\frac{3}{5} \right)=\arcsin \left(\frac{3}{5} \right)$

This means our original expression is equal to:

$\cos \left[\arcsin \left(\frac{12}{13} \right)+\arcsin \left(\frac{3}{5} \right) \right]$

Using the cosine addition formula, which states $\cos(a+b)=\cos a \cos b-\sin a \sin b$ , we get this itself is equal to:

$\cos \left(\arcsin \left(\frac{12}{13} \right) \right)\cos \left(\arcsin \left(\frac{3}{5} \right)\right)-\sin \left(\arcsin \left(\frac{12}{13} \right) \right)\sin \left(\arcsin \left(\frac{3}{5} \right)\right)$

Since $\sin^{2} \theta+\cos^{2} \theta=1$ , we know that:

$\sin^{2} \left(\arcsin \left(\frac{12}{13} \right)\right)+\cos^{2} \left(\arcsin \left(\frac{12}{13} \right)\right)=1\\\\\frac{144}{169} +\cos^{2} \left(\arcsin \left(\frac{12}{13} \right)\right)=1\\\\cos^{2} \left(\arcsin \left(\frac{12}{13} \right)\right)=\frac{25}{169}\\\\cos \left(\arcsin \left(\frac{12}{13} \right)\right)=\frac{5}{13}$

Similarly, cos(arcsin(3/5))=4/5.

This means the given expression is equal to:

$\left(\frac{5}{13} \right) \left(\frac{4}{5} \right)-\left(\frac{12}{13} \right) \left(\frac{3}{5} \right)\\\\\frac{20}{65}-\frac{36}{65}=\boxed{-\frac{16}{65}}$
