Answer:

The points are \bold{\left(  \cfrac{1}6\sqrt{\cfrac {15}{22}} ,\cfrac 1{10}\sqrt{\cfrac {15}{22}},\cfrac{2}3\sqrt{\cfrac {15}{22}}\right)} and \bold{\left(  -\cfrac{1}6\sqrt{\cfrac {15}{22}} ,-\cfrac 1{10}\sqrt{\cfrac {15}{22}},-\cfrac{2}3\sqrt{\cfrac {15}{22}}\right)}

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the normal to both the surface and the plane, and set a relation between them since tangent plane and the given are parallel. Once we have that we can use the original surface to find the points on the surface that are tangent to the plane.

Normal vectors.

The normal vectors can be found using partial derivatives or gradient, thus we can call the surface:

F(x,y,z)=3x^2+5y^2+3z^2-1=0

So its normal is

\vec n_1 = \left< \cfrac{\partial F}{\partial x},\cfrac{\partial F}{\partial y},\cfrac{\partial F}{\partial z} \right>\\\vec n_1= \left< 6x,10y,6z\right>

And the normal vector to the plane is

\vec n_2= < 1,1,4>

Notice that the normal vector of the plane is just represented by the coefficients of x,y and z.

Parallel condition

The two planes are parallel only if their normal vectors are parallel as well, so we can write

\vec n_1=t\vec n_2

Using the previously found normal vectors.

\left< 6x,10y,6z\right>=t< 1,1,4>

So we get

x= t/6\\y=t/10\\z=2t/3

Finding the points where we have the tangent plane.

We can plug the expressions we have found of x, y and z on the given  surface equation.

3(t/6)^2+5(t/10)^2+3(2t/3)^2=1

And we can simplify and solve for t.

\cfrac{t^2}{12}+\cfrac{t^2}{20}+\cfrac{4t^2}{3}=1

The LCD is 60 so we can multiply all terms in both sides by 60 to get

5t^2+3t^2+80t^2=60\\88t^2=60

So we get

t^2  = \cfrac {15}{22}

That give us the values of t

t_{1,2} =\pm \sqrt{\cfrac {15}{22}}

Lastly at t_1=\sqrt{\cfrac {15}{22}} we have:

x= \cfrac{1}6\sqrt{\cfrac {15}{22}} \\y=\cfrac 1{10}\sqrt{\cfrac {15}{22}}\\z=\cfrac{2}3\sqrt{\cfrac {15}{22}}

So one point is

\boxed{\left(  \cfrac{1}6\sqrt{\cfrac {15}{22}} ,\cfrac 1{10}\sqrt{\cfrac {15}{22}},\cfrac{2}3\sqrt{\cfrac {15}{22}}\right)}

And for the value of  t_2=-\sqrt{\cfrac {15}{22}}

We have

x= -\cfrac{1}6\sqrt{\cfrac {15}{22}} \\y=-\cfrac 1{10}\sqrt{\cfrac {15}{22}}\\z=-\cfrac{2}3\sqrt{\cfrac {15}{22}}

So the second point is

\boxed{\left( - \cfrac{1}6\sqrt{\cfrac {15}{22}} ,-\cfrac 1{10}\sqrt{\cfrac {15}{22}},-\cfrac{2}3\sqrt{\cfrac {15}{22}}\right)}

Show that cos2x=cosx
PSYCHO15rus [73]

cos (2x) = cos x

2 cos^2 x -1 = cos x   using the double angle formula

2 cos ^2 x -cos x -1 =0

factor

(2 cos x+1) ( cos x -1) = 0

using the zero product property

2 cos x+1 =0    cos x -1 =0

2 cos x = -1       cos x =1

cos x = -1/2       cos x=1

taking the arccos of each side

arccos cos x = arccos (-1/2)         arccos cos x = arccos 1

x = 120 degrees   x=-120   degrees           x=0

remember you get 2 values ( 2nd and 3rd quadrant)

these are the principal values

now we need to add 360

x = 120+ 360n      x=-120+ 360n      x = 0 + 360n  where n is an integer

Not sure how to find what x equals
Llana [10]

Answer:

Its 48 °

Since its a triangle, the total angle will be 180°

So,

x° + 42°+90°=180°(90° as one angle in triangle is 90°)

x°=180°-90°-42°

x°=48°
