Verify that [tan(theta) + cot(theta)]^2 = sec^2(theta) + csc^2(theta)

Mathematics

Wittaler [7]3 years ago

(tanθ + cotθ)² = sec²θ + csc²θ

<u>Expand left side</u>: tan²θ + 2tanθcotθ + cot²θ

<u>Evaluate middle term</u>: 2tanθcotθ = 2*\frac{sin\theta}{cos\theta}*\frac{cos\theta}{sin\theta} = 2

⇒ tan²θ + 2+ cot²θ

= tan²θ + 1 + 1 + cot²θ

<u>Apply trig identity:</u>  tan²θ + 1 = sec²θ

⇒ sec²θ + 1 + cot²θ

<u>Apply trig identity:</u>  1 + cot²θ = csc²θ

⇒ sec²θ + csc²θ

Left side equals Right side so equation is verified

Marizza181 [45]

Answer: 59

Step-by-step explanation:

a triangle always equals 180 degrees. a+b+c= 180 so you would solve for e, 53+68+e= 180

Juan sells banana bread by weight. He cuts a 1-lb loaf of banana bread into 6 equal slices. He wants to complete the table showi
Westkost [7]

Answer:

0.1\frac{}{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

When Juan cut a 1 lb loaf of banana bread into 6 slices, the weight of each slice forms a repeating decimal. A repeating decimal is a decimal number with repeating digit/s.

i.e \frac{1}{6} = 0.166666666666666...

To express the total weight for each slice, he should write a bar over 6 to show that the number repeats.

i.e \frac{1}{6} = 0.1\frac{}{6}

Note that \frac{}{6} has expressed that the division has 6 as the repeating digit in the decimal number.

What is the measure of
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

70

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles of a triangle should always add up to 180 degrees.

In this problem, they have given us 2 angle measures of the triangle - 40 degrees and 70 degrees. To figure out the third angle, we simply need to figure out how many more degrees we need for reaching the 180 degrees.

I'm just going to do some simple math:

40 + 70 = 110 (sum of the 2 angles)

180 - 110 = 70 (subtracting 180 by the sum of the 2 angles)
