The half-angle formula for cosine is
\cos{\left(\dfrac{\theta}{2}\right)}=\sqrt{\dfrac{1+\cos{\theta}}{2}}

To find cos(3π/8), we can use this formula with θ=3π/4. Cos(3π/4) = -(√2)/2, so we have

\cos{\left(\dfrac{3\pi}{8}\right)=\sqrt{\dfrac{1-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}}{2}}\\\\=\sqrt{\dfrac{2-\sqrt{2}}{4}}=\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{2-\sqrt{2}}

What is -5/12 - 4/14 + 6/34
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

4 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at this expression as given in the original problem; the numbers, properly typewritten, are    -5  1/2,  - 4  1/4,  + 6  3/4.

We want to combine these three numbers into one.

To do this, we need the LCD; it is 4.

Thus, -5  1/2 is rewritten as  -5  2/4.

Then we have

-5  2/4 - 4  1/4 + 6  3/4  = -5 -4 + 6 + 2/4 + 1/4 + 3/4.

This simplifies to:                 +3 + 6/4, or 3 + 1  + 2/4, or

                                                                      4  1/2
