5 ft = 5 * 12 in = 60 inches
Four consecutive even numbers are: x,  x + 2,  x + 4,  x + 6
x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 = 60
4 x + 12 = 60
4 x = 60 - 12
4 x = 48
x = 48 : 4
x = 12
Answer:
Those shelves should be: 12,  14,  16  and 18 inches long.
Verification:  12 + 14 + 16 + 18 = 60 in = 5 ft.

Find sin(x/2), cos(x/2), and tan(x/2) from the given information.
Nimfa-mama [501]

The values of sin (x/2) = 4/√17,   cos (x/2) = 1/√17 and  tan (x/2) = 4.

<h3>What is Trigonometry?</h3>

Trigonometric ratios are the ratios of the length of sides of a triangle. These ratios in trigonometry relate the ratio of sides of a right triangle to the respective angle.

Here, cos x = -15/17  (given)

we know, cos x = 2cos²x/2 - 1

                cos²(x/2) = (cos x + 1)/2

                  cos²(x/2) = (-15/17 + 1)/2

                 cos²(x/2) = 1/17

                 cos (x/2) = 1/√17

then, sin (x/2) = √(1- cos²(x/2))  

          sin (x/2) = √(1 - 1/17)

          sin (x/2) = √16/17

          sin (x/2) = 4/√17

and tan (x/2) = sin (x/2) / cos (x/2)  

       tan (x/2) = \frac{4/\sqrt{17} }{1/\sqrt{17} }

       tan (x/2) = 4

Thus, the values of sin (x/2) = 4/√17,   cos (x/2) = 1/√17 and  tan (x/2) = 4.
