Answer:
204/325
Step-by-step explanation:
You can work this a couple of ways. We expect you are probably expected to use trig identities.
cos(A) = √(1 -sin²(A)) = 24/25
sin(B) = √(1 -cos²(B)) = 12/13
cos(A -B) = cos(A)cos(B) +sin(A)sin(B) = (24/25)(5/13) +(7/25)(12/13)
= (24·5 +7·12)/325
cos(A -B) = 204/325

The other way to work this is using inverse trig functions. It is necessary to carry the full calculator precision if you want an exact answer.
cos(A -B) = cos(arcsin(7/25) -arccos(5/13)) = cos(16.2602° -67.3801°)
= cos(-51.1199°) ≈ 0.62769230 . . . . (last 6 digits repeating)
The denominators of 25 and 13 suggest that the desired fraction will have a denominator of 25·13 = 325, so we can multiply this value by 325 to see what we get.
325·cos(A-B) = 204
so, the exact value is ...
cos(A -B) = 204/325
Answer:
Yes, because when waves are at the same place at the same time, the amplitudes of the waves simply add together and this is really all we need to know!
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of two waves can be less than either wave, alone, and can even be zero. This is called destructive interference.
If we place the waves side-by-side, point them in the same direction and play the same frequency, we will have constructive interference.
take 558.25 and 38.5 and multiply them together. I had this same question in my class today.
