Hello,

Here is the demonstration in the book Person Guide to Mathematic by Khattar Dinesh.

Let's assume
P=cos(a)*cos(2a)*cos(3a)*....*cos(998a)*cos(999a)
Q=sin(a)*sin(2a)*sin(3a)*....*sin(998a)*sin(999a)

As sin x *cos x=sin (2x) /2

P*Q=1/2*sin(2a)*1/2sin(4a)*1/2*sin(6a)*....
         *1/2* sin(2*998a)*1/2*sin(2*999a) (there are 999 factors)
= 1/(2^999) * sin(2a)*sin(4a)*...
     *sin(998a)*sin(1000a)*sin(1002a)*....*sin(1996a)*sin(1998a)
 as sin(x)=-sin(2pi-x) and 2pi=1999a

sin(1000a)=-sin(2pi-1000a)=-sin(1999a-1000a)=-sin(999a)
sin(1002a)=-sin(2pi-1002a)=-sin(1999a-1002a)=-sin(997a)
...
sin(1996a)=-sin(2pi-1996a)=-sin(1999a-1996a)=-sin(3a)
sin(1998a)=-sin(2pi-1998a)=-sin(1999a-1998a)=-sin(a)

So  sin(2a)*sin(4a)*...
     *sin(998a)*sin(1000a)*sin(1002a)*....*sin(1996a)*sin(1998a)
= sin(a)*sin(2a)*sin(3a)*....*sin(998)*sin(999) since there are 500 sign "-".

Thus
P*Q=1/2^999*Q or Q!=0 then
P=1/(2^999)

Answer:

The value of given expression is \frac{1}{2^{999}}.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

\cos A\cos 2A\cos 3A...........\cos 998A\cos 999A

where, A=\frac{2\pi}{1999}

Let as assume,

P=\cos A\cos 2A\cos 3A...........\cos 998A\cos 999A

Q=\sin A\sin 2A\sin 3A...........\sin 998A\sin 999A

2^{999}PQ=2^{999}(\cos A\cos 2A.........\cos 999A)(\sin A\sin 2A........\sin 999A)

2^{999}PQ=(2\cos A\sin A)(2\cos 2A\sin 2A)...........(2\cos 998A\sin 998A)(2\cos 999A\sin 999A)

Using the formula, 2\sin x\cos x=\sin 2x, we get

2^{999}PQ=\sin 2A\sin 4A......\sin 1998A

2^{999}PQ=[\sin 2A\sin 4A......\sin 998A][-\sin(2\pi -1000A)][-\sin(2\pi -1002A)]...[-\sin(2\pi -1998A)]             .... (1)

Now,

-\sin(2\pi -1000A)=-\sin(2\pi -1000(\frac{2\pi}{1999}))

-\sin(2\pi -1000A)=-\sin(\frac{2\pi\cdot 999}{1999})

-\sin(2\pi -1000A)=-\sin 999A

So, equation (1) can be written as

2^{999}PQ=[\sin 2A\sin 4A......\sin 998A][\sin 999A\sin 997...\sin A]

2^{999}PQ=\sin A\sin 2A\sin 3A...........\sin 998A\sin 999A

2^{999}PQ=Q

Divide both sides by Q.

2^{999}P=1

Divide both sides by 2^{999}

P=\frac{1}{2^{999}}

Therefore the value of given expression is \frac{1}{2^{999}}.

Julia and Cody are working together on solving math problems. For every one problem that Julia
slega [8]

Answer:

Cody has solved (12 × 12) = 144 problems.

Step-by-step explanation:

For every one problem that Julia completes, Cody completes twelve.

If Julia Completes x problems and Cody completes y problems, then we can write y = 12x ........ (1)

Now, given that the number of problems solved by Cody is one hundred twenty more than two times the number of problems solved by Julia.

Hence, 2x + 120 = y ......... (2)

Now, from equations (1) and (2) we get,  

2x + 120 = 12x

⇒ 10x = 120

⇒ x = 12

Therefore, Cody has solved (12 × 12) = 144 problems. (Answer)

Solve the equation<br> 0.2(d-6)=0.3d+5-3+0.1d for d
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

d= -16

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question you'll have to first simplify the equation to

0.2d+-1.2=0.3d+5-3+0.1d

then combining like terms you get

0.2d-1.2=(0.3d+0.1d)+(5+-3)

0.2d-1.2=0.4d+2

then subtract 0.4d from both sides leaving you with

-0.2d-1.2=2

then add 1.2 to both sides

-0.2d=3.2

after you divide both sides by -0.2

leaving you with the answer

D= -16
