Use a calculator to evaluate cot 3.14/5

1 answer:

8 0

You need to be a little careful here. cot(3.14/5) ≠ cot(π/5) to the accuracy shown. 3.14 is not a useful approximation for π if you want to use more than 3 significant digits in your result.

The 2nd selection is appropriate. (1.376)

Which of the following are solutions to the equation sinx cosx = (sqrt of 3)/4? Check all that apply.

Dmitriy789 [7]

$\sin x \cos x = \dfrac{\sqrt 3}{4}$

$2 \sin x \cos x = \dfrac{\sqrt 3}{2}$

$\sin 2x = \sin \frac \pi 3$

$2x = \frac \pi 3 + 2 \pi n \textrm{ or } 2x = (\pi - \frac \pi 3) + 2 \pi n \quad \textrm{integer } n$

$x = \frac \pi 6 + \pi n \textrm{ or } x = \frac \pi 3 + \pi n$

In this diagram, what is the value of b, correct to the nearest tenth?

lilavasa [31]

We will use the Sine Law:
$\frac{sin 54.33}{b}= \frac{sin29.16}{3} \\ b = \frac{3sin54.33}{sin29.16}$
b = 5.001

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Fill in each function's argument and do the arithmetic.

$h(g(f(\sqrt{10})))=h(g(2(\sqrt{10})^2-7))=h(g(2\cdot 10-7))=h(g(13))\\\\=h(\dfrac{4-13}{9})=h(\dfrac{-9}{9})=h(-1)\\\\=\sqrt{-(-1)+3}=\sqrt{4}=\boxed{2}$
