Solve the equation . cos2x−cosx=0. on the interval [0,2π)

1 answer:

6 0

Cos 2x = 2cos^2(x) − 1
2cos^2 (x) − 1 − cos(x) ≡ 2cos^2(x) − cos(x) − 1
Let cos(x) = y
2y^2 − y − 1
(2y + 1) (y − 1) y = −1/2
y = 1
y = cos(x)
∴ cos(x) = −1/2 ; cos(x) = 1
x = 2/3 π ; x = 0
solutions;x = 2/3 π, x = 0, x = 4/3 π, x = 2π

Question 3 (1 point)

Virty [35]

Answer:

The answer to your question is (4, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

E ( 9 , 7 )

F ( - 1, 5)

Formula

$Xm = \frac{x1 + x2}{2}$

$Ym = \frac{y1 + y2}{2}$

Substitution and simplification

$Xm = \frac{9 -1}{2}$

$Xm = \frac{8}{2}$

Xm = 4

$Ym = \frac{7 + 5}{2}$

$Ym = \frac{12}{2}$

Ym = 6

Result

(4 , 6)

Find the exact value of csc theta if tan theta = sqrt3 and the terminal side of theta is in Quadrant III.

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

3rd option

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the identities

cot x = $\frac{1}{tanx}$

csc² x = 1 + cot² x

Given

tanθ = $\sqrt{3}$ , then cotθ = $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }$

csc²θ = 1 + ( $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }$ )² = 1 + $\frac{1}{3}$ = $\frac{4}{3}$

cscθ = ± $\sqrt{\frac{4}{3} }$ = ± $\frac{2}{\sqrt{3} }$

Since θ is in 3rd quadrant, then cscθ < 0

cscθ = - $\frac{2}{\sqrt{3} }$ × $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{\sqrt{3} }$ = - $\frac{2\sqrt{3} }{3}$

Lim n→∞[(n + n² + n³ + .... nⁿ)/(1ⁿ + 2ⁿ + 3ⁿ +....nⁿ)]

Schach [20]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\large\underline{\sf{Solution-}}$

Given expression is

$\rm :\longmapsto\:\displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{n + {n}^{2} + {n}^{3} + - - + {n}^{n} }{ {1}^{n} + {2}^{n} + {3}^{n} + - - + {n}^{n} }$

To, evaluate this limit, let we simplify numerator and denominator individually.

So, Consider Numerator

$\rm :\longmapsto\:n + {n}^{2} + {n}^{3} + - - - + {n}^{n}$

Clearly, if forms a Geometric progression with first term n and common ratio n respectively.

So, using Sum of n terms of GP, we get

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{n( {n}^{n} - 1)}{n - 1}$

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{ {n}^{n} - 1}{1 - \dfrac{1}{n} }$

Now, Consider Denominator, we have

$\rm :\longmapsto\: {1}^{n} + {2}^{n} + {3}^{n} + - - - + {n}^{n}$

can be rewritten as

$\rm :\longmapsto\: {1}^{n} + {2}^{n} + {3}^{n} + - - - + {(n - 1)}^{n} + {n}^{n}$

$\rm \: = \: {n}^{n}\bigg[1 +\bigg[{\dfrac{n - 1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + \bigg[{\dfrac{n - 2}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + - - - + \bigg[{\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} \bigg]$

$\rm \: = \: {n}^{n}\bigg[1 +\bigg[1 - {\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + \bigg[1 - {\dfrac{2}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + - - - + \bigg[{\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} \bigg]$

Now, Consider

$\rm :\longmapsto\:\displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{n + {n}^{2} + {n}^{3} + - - + {n}^{n} }{ {1}^{n} + {2}^{n} + {3}^{n} + - - + {n}^{n} }$

So, on substituting the values evaluated above, we get

$\rm \: = \: \displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{\dfrac{ {n}^{n} - 1}{1 - \dfrac{1}{n} }}{{n}^{n}\bigg[1 +\bigg[1 - {\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + \bigg[1 - {\dfrac{2}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + - - - + \bigg[{\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} \bigg]}$

$\rm \: = \: \displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{ {n}^{n} - 1}{{n}^{n}\bigg[1 +\bigg[1 - {\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + \bigg[1 - {\dfrac{2}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + - - - + \bigg[{\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} \bigg]}$

$\rm \: = \: \displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{ {n}^{n}\bigg[1 - \dfrac{1}{ {n}^{n} } \bigg]}{{n}^{n}\bigg[1 +\bigg[1 - {\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + \bigg[1 - {\dfrac{2}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + - - - + \bigg[{\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} \bigg]}$

$\rm \: = \: \displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{\bigg[1 - \dfrac{1}{ {n}^{n} } \bigg]}{\bigg[1 +\bigg[1 - {\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + \bigg[1 - {\dfrac{2}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + - - - + \bigg[{\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} \bigg]}$

$\rm \: = \: \displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{1}{\bigg[1 +\bigg[1 - {\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + \bigg[1 - {\dfrac{2}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + - - - + \bigg[{\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} \bigg]}$

Now, we know that,

$\red{\rm :\longmapsto\:\boxed{\tt{ \displaystyle\lim_{x \to \infty} \bigg[1 + \dfrac{k}{x} \bigg]^{x} = {e}^{k}}}}$

So, using this, we get

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{1}{1 + {e}^{ - 1} + {e}^{ - 2} + - - - - \infty }$

Now, in denominator, its an infinite GP series with common ratio 1/e ( < 1 ) and first term 1, so using sum to infinite GP series, we have

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{1}{\dfrac{1}{1 - \dfrac{1}{e} } }$

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{1}{\dfrac{1}{ \dfrac{e - 1}{e} } }$

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{1}{\dfrac{e}{e - 1} }$

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{e - 1}{e}$

$\rm \: = \: 1 - \dfrac{1}{e}$

Hence,

$\boxed{\tt{ \displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{n + {n}^{2} + {n}^{3} + - - + {n}^{n} }{ {1}^{n} + {2}^{n} + {3}^{n} + - - + {n}^{n} } = \frac{e - 1}{e} = 1 - \frac{1}{e}}}$
