Answer:

The terms are already in lowest form. The factors of 21 are 21 and 1, and 3 and 7. The factors of 18 are 1 and 18, 2 and 9, and 3 and 6. The factors of 28 are 1 and 28, 2 and 14, and 7 and 4. None of them match up so it is as low as it can be.

the greatest common factor is x. because

21, -18, and 28 do not have any shared factors

Use a half-angle identity to find the exact value

Tatiana [17]

Given:

$\cos 15^{\circ}$

To find:

The exact value of cos 15°.

Solution:

$$\cos 15^{\circ}=\cos\frac{ 30^{\circ}}{2}$

Using half-angle identity:

$$\cos \left(\frac{x}{2}\right)=\sqrt{\frac{1+\cos (x)}{2}}$

$$\cos \frac{30^{\circ}}{2}=\sqrt{\frac{1+\cos \left(30^{\circ}\right)}{2}}$

Using the trigonometric identity: $\cos \left(30^{\circ}\right)=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

$$=\sqrt{\frac{1+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}{2}}$

Let us first solve the fraction in the numerator.

$$=\sqrt{\frac{\frac{2+\sqrt{3}}{2}}{2}}$

Using fraction rule: $\frac{\frac{a}{b} }{c}=\frac{a}{b \cdot c}$

$$=\sqrt{\frac {2+\sqrt{3}}{4}}$

Apply radical rule: $\sqrt[n]{\frac{a}{b}}=\frac{\sqrt[n]{a}}{\sqrt[n]{b}}$

$$=\frac{\sqrt{2+\sqrt{3}}}{\sqrt{4}}$

Using $\sqrt{4} =2$ :

$$=\frac{\sqrt{2+\sqrt{3}}}{2}$

$$\cos 15^\circ=\frac{\sqrt{2+\sqrt{3}}}{2}$
