Verify the identity. cot(x - pi/2) = -tan(x)

Mathematics
1 answer:
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

\cot(x-\frac{\pi}{2})=-\tan(x)

Convert the cotangent to cosine over sine:

\frac{\cos(x-\frac{\pi}{2} )}{\sin(x-\frac{\pi}{2})} =-\tan(x)

Use the cofunction identities. The cofunction identities are:

\sin(x)=\cos(\frac{\pi}{2}-x)\\\cos(x)=\sin(\frac{\pi}{2}-x)

To convert this, factor out a negative one from the cosine and sine.

\frac{\cos(-(\frac{\pi}{2}-x ))}{\sin(-(\frac{\pi}{2}-x))} =-\tan(x)

Recall that since cosine is an even function, we can remove the negative. Since sine is an odd function, we can move the negative outside:

\frac{\cos((\frac{\pi}{2}-x ))}{-\sin((\frac{\pi}{2}-x))} =-\tan(x)\\-\frac{\sin(x)}{\cos(x)} =-\tan(x)\\-\tan(x)\stackrel{\checkmark}{=}-\tan(x)

The order of temperature values become -16.7°C > -11.15°C > -7°C > 3°C And -16.7°C is the coolest temperature and 3°C is the warmest as compare to others.

According to the statement

we have given that the some values of the temperatures and we have to write it in the order from the coolest to the warmest means in increasing order.

So, For this purpose,

The given values of temperatures are:

3°C , -7°C , 2°F, 262 K

Firstly convert into one form

So, convert all values in Celsius form,

3°C = 3°C

-7°C = -7°C

2°F = -16.7°C

262 K = -11.15°C

Now arrange into the order from coolest to warmest

So, it will become

-16.7°C > -11.15°C > -7°C > 3°C

So, -16.7°C is the coolest temperature and 3°C is the warmest as compare to others.

The order of temperature values become -16.7°C > -11.15°C > -7°C > 3°C And -16.7°C is the coolest temperature and 3°C is the warmest as compare to others.

Jillian is using integer tiles to add 7 + (negative 2). She uses the steps below. Step 1 7 positive tiles. Step 2 7 positive til
raketka [301]

Answer:

<h3>Step 4</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression 7+(-2)

Let 7 be 7 positive tiles since it is a positive number

Let -2 be 2 negative tiles being a negative number

7+(-2) = 7 positive tiles <em>and</em> 2 negative tiles

note that + * - will give minus sigh (-), the expression will become:

7+(-2) = 7-2

7-2 = 5

Hence the expression gives 5 positive tiles not 2 positive tiles according to Jillian calculations in step 4.

Hence Jillian made an error in step 4
