Answer:

Dinner only: $75

Dinner and Tip: $90

Step-by-step explanation:

If the tip was $15, and the tip was 20% of the price of dinner, then dinner was $75.

You can find this out by doing 15/20%, which should give you 75.

If the question requires you to add up the price of dinner and the tip, then the total price would be $90

Find 2 common angles that sum to (17pi/12) 2. Evaluate tan(17pi/12) using the sum identity for tangent.

Dmitry [639]

Note that
$\frac{17 \pi }{12} = \frac{3 \pi }{12} + \frac{14 \pi }{12} = \frac{ \pi }{4} + \frac{7 \pi }{6}$

Note that
$x= \frac{ \pi }{4}:\,\, sin(x) =cos(x)= \frac{1}{ \sqrt{2} },\,tan(x)=1\\x= \frac{7 \pi }{6} :\,\,sin(x)=- \frac{1}{2} ,\,\,cos(x)=- \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} ,\,\,tan(x)= \frac{1}{ \sqrt{3} }$

Use the identity
$tan(x+y)= \frac{tan(x)+tan(y)}{1-tan(x)tan(y)}$

Therefore
$tan( \frac{17 \pi }{12} )= \frac{1+ \frac{1}{ \sqrt{3} } }{1- \frac{1}{ \sqrt{3} } } = \frac{ \sqrt{3}+1 }{ \sqrt{3}-1} = \frac{( \sqrt{3}+1 )^{2}}{( \sqrt{3}-1 )( \sqrt{3}+1 )} = \frac{3+1+2 \sqrt{3}}{3-1} =2+ \sqrt{3}$
