Without using a calculator how do you evaluate tan 5π/6.

1 answer:

3 0

Remember that pi=180,
so 180/6=30, 30*5=150,
what's tan 150?
Remember that 150 degrees is in the 2nd quadrant, and this is tangent, so it means the answer must be negative, because tan 150= - tan 30, and -tan30=-√3/3.

Answer: -√3/3.

12 and 1/2 + 1 and 5/8

Answer: 14 1/8

Step-by-step explanation: To add mixed numbers, first add the fractions. In this case, we have two fractions $\frac{1}{2}$ and $\frac{5}{8}$ and these fractions have unlike denominators. We need to find a common denominator for both of these fractions to be able to add.

<u>Least Common Denominator:</u>

$\frac{1}{2}$ = $\frac{4}{8}$

$\frac{5}{8}$ = $\frac{5}{8}$

12 4/8 + 1 5/8 = 13 9/8

Notice that 9/8 is an improper fraction so we can change it to a mixed number.

9/8 = 1 1/8

13 + 1 and 1/8 = 14 1/8

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{11 + x}{(2 - x)(x - 3)} = \frac{A}{2 - x} + \frac{B}{x - 3} \\ \\ \therefore \: \frac{11 + x}{(2 - x)(x - 3)} = \frac{A(x - 3) +B(2 - x) }{(2 - x)(x - 3)} \\ \\ \therefore \: 11 + x = Ax - 3A + 2B - Bx \\ \\ \therefore \: 11 + x = - 3A + 2B + Ax - Bx\\ \\ \therefore \: 11 + x = - 3A + 2B + (A - B)x \\ \\ equating \: the \: like \: terms \: on \: both \: sides \\ A - B = 1 \\ \therefore \: A = B + 1.....(1) \\ \\ - 3A + 2B = 11....(2) \\ from \: eq \: (1) \: and \: (2) \\ - 3(B + 1) + + 2B = 11 \\ \\ - 3B - 3 + 2B = 11 \\ \\ - B = 11 + 3 \\ \\ B = - 14 \\ A = - 14 + 1 = - 13 \\ \\ \frac{11 + x}{(2 - x)(x - 3)} = \frac{ - 13}{2 - x} + \frac{ - 14}{x - 3} \\ \\ \frac{11 + x}{(2 - x)(x - 3)} = - \frac{ 13}{2 - x} - \frac{ 14}{x - 3}$
