Hey there,

To find percent of error you will start by subtracting 270 from 302

302 - 270 = 32

32 • 100 = 3200

3200 / 270 = 11.9

11.9 rounds to 12% so
about 12%

Hope I helped :)

Solve the equation cos (x/2) = cos x + 1. what are the solutions on the interval 0° ≤ x < 360°?
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

cos (x/2)=cos x+1

cos (x/2)=2cos ²(x/2)

2 cos²(x/2)-cos (x/2)=0

cos (x/2)[2 cos (x/2)-1]=0

cos (x/2)=0=cos π/2,cos (3π/2)=cos (2nπ+π/2),cos(2nπ+3π/2)

x/2=2nπ+π/2,2nπ+3π/2

x=4nπ+π,4nπ+3π

n=0,1,2,...

x=π,3π

or x=180°,540°,...

180°∈[0,360]

so x=180°

or

2cos(x/2)-1=0

cos (x/2)=1/2=cos60,cos (360-60)=cos 60,cos 300=cos (360n+60),cos (360n+300)

x/2=360n+60,360n+300

x=720n+120,720n+300

n=0,1,2,...

x=120,300,840,1020,...

only 120° and 300° ∈[0,360°]

Hence x=120°,180°,300°

The measure of one angle is 7 times the measure of its complement.Find each angle measure
aleksklad [387]
<span>let the angles be x and y.
as they are compliment
x+y=90 
also given
x=7y 

substituting value of x in first equation
7y+y=90
8y=90 
therefore 
y=11.25
x=7*y=78.75</span>
