Answer:

\frac{x}{8}-\frac{\sin(4x)}{32}+C

Step-by-step explanation:

[Most of the work here comes from manipulating the trig to make the term (integrand) integrable.]

Recall that we can express the squared trig functions in terms of cos(2x). That is,

\cos(2x)=2\cos^2x-1 \\ \cos(2x)=1 - 2\sin^2x.

And so inverting these,

\cos^2x=\frac{1}{2} (1+\cos2x) \\ \sin^2x=\frac{1}{2} (1-\cos2x).

Multiply them together to obtain an equivalent expression for sin^2(x)cos^2(x) in terms of cos(2x).

\sin^2x \cdot \cos^2x =\frac{1}{2} (1-\cos2x) \cdot \frac{1}{2} (1+\cos2x) = \frac{1}{4}(1-\cos^2(2x)).

Notice we have cos^2(2x) in the integrand now. We've made it worse! Let's try plugging back in to the first identity for cos^2(2x).

\cos(2x)=2\cos^2x-1 \Rightarrow \cos(4x)=2\cos^2(2x)-1 \Rightarrow \cos^2(2x) = \frac{1}{2}(1+\cos(4x))

So then,

\sin^2x \cdot \cos^2x = \frac{1}{4}(1-\cos^2(2x)) = \frac{1}{4}(1-\frac{1}{2}(1+\cos(4x))) = \frac{1}{4}(1-\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{2}\cos(4x))=\frac{1}{8}(1-\cos(4x)).

This is now integrable (phew),

\int \sin^2x\cos^2x \ dx = \int \frac{1}{8}(1-\cos(4x)) \ dx = \frac{1}{8} \int (1-\cos(4x)) \ dx = \frac{1}{8}(x-\frac{1}{4}\sin(4x))+C.

The first is in the form y=Mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Start at 600 on the y-axis and graph with a slope of six. The second is in the same form but the y-intercept is 0, so start at the origin and graph with a slope of 8. The last is in the form y=b+mx, so start at 1300 and graph with a slope of 3. Remember, slope is rise/run or (change in y)/(change in x). Since the domain and range start at 0 these graphs will only be in the first quadrant with an x limit of 650 and a y limit of 1500.

Can someone help me with this pls?

Answer:

1176cm^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

First, calculate the volume as if it was a full rectangle.

Volume formula:

length x width x height

16 x 6 x 21 = 2016cm^{3} (this is the volume if this was a full rectangle)

Now to calculate the size of the missing part we do the same thing

10 x 6 x 14 = 840cm^{3}

To work out the volume of this shape, we need to subtract the volume of the missing part from the volume of the rectangle

2016 - 840 = 1176cm^{3}

I hope this helped :-)

Solve 19cos θ = 5 cos θ + 14 for all values of θ if θ is measured in radians.
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Ф=xπ, x={0,+∞}

Step-by-step explanation:

be 19cosФ=5cosФ+14 → 19cosФ-5cosФ-14 → 14cosФ-14=0 → cosФ=1

then,  values for which cosФ=1 are Ф=0º=360º=720º........., but the values of Ф  must be radians, so Ф=xπ, where x∈Z, not including the negative numbers,

x={0,1,2,3,....∞}

Note: π≅3.141592

when calculating the values, it must be done in radian mode
