<em>ANSWER:</em>

<h2>-15</h2>

<em>STEP:</em>

Absolute signs are signs that tell the number away from 0. So the absolute number cannot be negative. |x| = x. You don't know if the number was positive or negative. |-x|. |-x| is x since it tells it's x away from 0. -|x| is -x. Since the negative sign isn't in the absolute signs, you keep it as -15.

Hope this helps :D

Answer:

-15

Step-by-step explanation:

The negative is outside of the absolute value signs/lines. The absolute value is how far the number is from 0. So, it doesn't matter whether or not there is a negative sign inside of the absolute value lines it will always be positive. But, if it's outside of it, then it will be negative.

If csc ( x ) = 4, for 90 ∘ &lt; x &lt; 180, then sin ( x 2 ) = ? cos ( x 2 ) = ? tan ( x 2 ) = ?
svetlana [45]

Answer:

I'm assuming where you wrote x2, you meant 2x.

Anyway, if csc (x) = 2, since csc(x) = 1/sin(x), we know that 1/sin x = 2, so sin (x) = 1/2. Since sin2x + cos2x = 1, cos2x = 1 - sin2x, so cos x = √1 - sin2x. In this case, cos x = √ 1 - (1/2)2 = √(3/4) = (√3)/2. Finally, since sin x = opp / hyp , cos = adj/ hyp: sin x / cos x = (opp/hyp)/(adj/hyp) = opp/adj = tan x. So this means that tan x = sin x / cos x = 1/2 / √ 3 / 2 = 1/√3 = √3 / 3

At this point, all that is necessary is to use the double angle formulas for sin, cos, and tan.

sin (2x) = 2 sin x cos x = 2 (1/2) (√3/2) = √3 / 2

cos (2x) = cos2x - sin2x = (√3/2)2 - (1/2)2 = 3/4 - 1/4 = 1/2

tan (2x) = 2 tan x / (1 - tan2x) = 2 (√3 / 3) / ( 1 - (√3/3)2) = 2/√3 / (1 - 1/3) = 2/√3 / (2/3) = 3/√3 = √3

To sum up, sin (2x) = √4 / 2, cos (2x) = 1/2, and tan(2x) = ✓3.
