One way would be to notice that both functions have the same derivative and then find out what the "constant" is by plugging in x=0
x
=
0
.
Here's another way. Look at
π2−2arctanx−−√=2(π4−arctanx−−√)=2(arctan1−arctanx−−√).

.
Now remember the identity for the difference of two arctangents:
arctanu−arctanv=arctanu−v1+uv.

(This follows from the usual identity for the tangent of a sum.) The left side above becomes
2arctan1−x−−√1+x−−√.

The double-angle formula for the sine says sin(2u)=2sinucosu
sin

sin

cos

. Apply that:
sin(2arctan1−x−−√1+x−−√)=2sin(arctan1−x−−√1+x−−√)cos(arctan1−x−−√1+x−−√)

Now remember that sin(arctanu)=u1+u2−−−−−√
sin

and cos(arctanu)=11+u2−−−−−√

Then use algebra:
2⋅(1−x√1+x√)1+(1−x√1+x√)2−−−−−−−−−−√⋅11+(1−x√1+x√)2−−−−−−−−−−√=1−x1+x.
To get the value of x, you have to divide 810.75 by 15. You should get x=54.04
The angle of NPR is 130°
First, set up an equation to find x.
Then, solve the equation for x.
Then, substitute 25 in for x in 2x
50
Finally, subtract 50 from 180 to find the angle of NPR
130°
Hi, I think the answer should be $4.26
7.25% × $24 = $1.74
$24 +1.74 = $25.74
Change is the difference between the amount tendered and this total amount:
$30.00 -25.74 = $4.26
