Answer:
1. No, Joe is not correct
2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: b and c are parallel lines
To find:
1. whether the given statement is correct or not
2.
Solution:
1.
Sum of two angles that form a linear pair is equal to
(linear pair)
So, Joe is not correct
2.
If two lines are parallel then alternate interior angles are equal.
As b and c are parallel lines,
(alternate interior angles)
The actual value of sin(π/3) is (√3)/2 ≈ 0.86602540.
If the sine function is approximated by y=x (no error at x = 0), then the error at x=π/3 is ...
... x -sin(x) @ x=π/3
... π/3 -(√3)/2 ≈ 0.18117215 ≈ 0.1812
You know right away this is a bad approximation, because the approximate value is π/3 ≈ 1.04719755, a value greater than 1. The range of the sine function is [-1, 1] so there will be no values greater than 1.
___
If the sine function is approximated by y=(x+1-π/4)/√2 (no error at x=π/4), then the error at x=π/3 is ...
... (x+1-π/4)/√2 -sin(x) @ x=π/3
... (π/12 +1)/√2 -(√3)/2 ≈ 0.026201500 ≈ 0.02620
