Mathematics

pav-90 [236]3 years ago
8 0

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.

Zanzabum

Answer:

(4,0,-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we move 4 points along +ve x-axis so,  x coordinate is 4

We did not move any point along y-axis so  y coordinate is 0

we moved 5 points along -ve z-axis so z coordinate is -5

so our position is (x,y,z) = (4,0,-5)
