What is the exact value of cos 112.5°?

Mathematics
1 answer:
ikadub [295]3 years ago
3 0
We have 112.5 = 225/2; cos112.5 < 0 because 90 < 112.5 < 180;
cos 112.5 = cos(225/2);
We use the trigonometric formula: cos(x/2) = - \sqrt{ \frac{1+cosx}{2} };
Then, cos(225/2) = - \sqrt{ \frac{1+cos225}{2} };
We have the formula: cos(270 - x) = -sinx (because cos(a-b) = cosacosb + sinasinb);
Then, cos225 = cos(270-45) = -sin45 = -\frac{ \sqrt{2} }{2} ;
Finally, cos112.5 = -\frac{ \sqrt{2- \sqrt{2} } }{2} ;

Working simultaneously, four fudge machines complete a big order in 32 hours. All the machines at the fudge factory work at the
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

4 Hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the rate of the machines 1/x, because every time they complete an order, it takes them x hours. To find x, we have to add the the rates of the individual machines, which would equal the rate of the machines working together. We know that there are four machines working together at the same rate, and it took them 32 hours.

So:

1/x + 1/x + 1/x + 1/x = 1/32

1/4x = 1/32

4x = 32

x = 8

Thus, the rate of the machines is 1/8.

Now we have to find the time of the order with only half of the machines working together. This time, we don't know the combined rate, so I'll substitute it for y.

1/8 + 1/8 = 1/y

1/4 = 1/y

y = 4

The time taken to complete it is 4 hours.

What is the other solution??
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

The other solution is 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Break the solution into groups: (x^2+2x)+(-12x-24)

Factor out the x^2 from the first group to get x(x+2)

Factor out the -12 out of the second group to get -12(x-12)

Here we get (x-12)(x+2)

You can see solutions are -2 and 12.
