Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

As an example

(x₁, y₁ ) = (1,2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5,3), then

d = \sqrt{(5-1)^2+(3-2)^2} = \sqrt{4^2+1^2} = \sqrt{16+1} = \sqrt{17}

Now let (x₁, y₁ ) = (5,3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1,2), then

d = \sqrt{(1-5)^2+(2-3)^2} = \sqrt{(-4)^2+(-1)^2} = \sqrt{16+1} = \sqrt{17}

Verify the following identity and show steps<br><br> (Cos2 θ)/(1+sin2 θ)= (cot θ-1)/(cot θ+1)
Paul [167]

Answer:

Verified below

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to show that (Cos2θ)/(1 + sin2θ) = (cot θ - 1)/(cot θ + 1)

In trigonometric identities;

Cot θ = cos θ/sin θ

Thus;

(cot θ - 1)/(cot θ + 1) gives;

((cos θ/sin θ) - 1)/((cos θ/sin θ) + 1)

Simplifying numerator and denominator gives;

((cos θ - sin θ)/sin θ)/((cos θ + sin θ)/sin θ)

This reduces to;

>> (cos θ - sin θ)/(cos θ + sin θ)

Multiply top and bottom by ((cos θ + sin θ) to get;

>> (cos² θ - sin²θ)/(cos²θ + sin²θ + 2sinθcosθ)

In trigonometric identities, we know that;

cos 2θ = (cos² θ - sin²θ)

cos²θ + sin²θ = 1

sin 2θ = 2sinθcosθ

Thus;

(cos² θ - sin²θ)/(cos²θ + sin²θ + 2sinθcosθ) gives us:

>> cos 2θ/(1 + sin 2θ)

This is equal to the left hand side.

Thus, it is verified.

Pls help me with this question
Sedbober [7]

7/12,  3/4,  4/7,  5/8,  4/7

Answer:  

Order from Least to Greatest

4/7    =       4/7     <       7/12    <    5/8   <   3/4  

Showing Work  

Rewriting as fractions if necessary:  

7/12, 3/4, 4/7, 5/8, 4/7  

The least common denominator (LCD) is: 168.  

Rewriting as equivalent fractions with the LCD:  

98/168, 126/168, 96/168, 105/168, 96/168  

Ordering these fractions by the numerator in order from least to greatest:  

96/168    =    96/168     <     98/168    < 105/168    < 126/168  

Therefore, your input in order from least to greatest is:

Answer   =======>   4/7    =   4/7    <    7/12    <     5/8    < 3/4


B):  1.35,   5/4,   1.349,  6/5, 7/6

Number of inputs ====>  5

Answer => Ascending Order:  Least to Greatest =====>  7/6, 6/5, 5/4, 1.349, 1.35



C):   0.819,  0.8199, 81/100, 815/1000

Number of Inputs  ======>    4

Answer  ==> Ascending order (Least to Greatest ====>    81/100, 815/1000, 0.819, 0.8199



D):    3  4/7, 245/70, 3.572, 90/29

Number of Inputs:  4

Answer ==>  Ascending Order(Least to Greatest) ==> 90/29, 245/70, 3.572, 3 4/7




Hope that helps!!!!                                              : )

Can someone please help me with this
LenKa [72]

Just guess and check. For example, for the first on the left, I guessed 3 to begin with. 3 + 3 + 3 = 9, but 10 + 3 = 13, so 3 is not the answer. I then guessed 5. 5 + 5 + 5= 15, and 10 + 5= 15, so star = 5.
