Mathematics

pav-90 [236]3 years ago

Answer:

First, let's recall some usefull information:

- cot(x) = 1/tg(x) = cos(x)/sin(x)

- tan(x) = sin(x)/cos(x)

We also know that:

- cos(x - pi/2) = sin(x)

- sin(x - pi/2) = -cos(x)

Now we can use those relationships and get:

cot(x - pi/2) = cos(x - pi/2)/sin(x -pi/2) = sin(x)/-cos(x) = -tan(x)

So we have verified the identity, and explained step by step why the identity is true.

Find the number of permutations of the first 9 letters of the alphabet, taking 4 letters at a time.
Vinil7 [7]

Solution-

First 9 letters of alphabet are- A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I

Total number of ways of selection of 4 letters from 9 alphabets = 9C4

=9!÷((4!).(9-4)!) = 9!÷(4!×5!) = (9×8×7×6)÷(24) = 126

The number of ways of arranging these 4 numbers = 4! = 24

∴ Total number of possible permutations = 9C4×4! = 126×24 = 3024

∴ option number 2 is correct.
