Why is tangent's period 180 degrees?

1 answer:

3 0

In order for tan x = 0, sin x must be = 0
sin x = 0 at 0 degrees and 180 degrees 
so, tan x = 0 at 0, pi 
as for the period being pi, you need to have tan x be negative and positive 
so remember the acronym All students take calculus ( ASTC) for where they are positive. 
tan x is negative in Quadrant II and positive in Quadrant I, since it just repeats after that, the period therefore must be Pi.

Answer: [0, 396]

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain is the acceptable values of x in the function. In this case, x = t, the number of tiles. If you think about it, the minimum number of tiles is 0 (you can't have a negative number of tiles), and the maximum number of tiles is 44 (you only have 44 tiles). So, the domain for this function is from 0 to 44.

0 to 44 written in interval notation is [0,44].

The range is the acceptable values of y in the function. In this case, y = A, the area given. A(t) = 9t, so you can use the acceptable values of t to get the range. Again, the minimum area is 0 because you can't have negative area. To find the maximum area, plug in the maximum number of tiles: 9.

A(t) = 9t

A = 9(44)

A = 396

With the maximum number of tiles, 44, the area you get is 396 cm². Therefore, the acceptable values of A are from 0 to 396.

0 to 396 written in interval notation is [0, 396].
