Answer: 0.4693877

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

cos x=−6/7,

From trigonometry :

Cosx + sinx = 1

Cos2x = cos(x + x)

Recall the double angle identity:

Cos2x = 2cos^2x - 1

Sin2x = 1 - 2sin^2x

Since cosx = - 6/7

Then

Cos2x = 2cos^2x - 1

Cos2x = 2cosx^2 - 1

Cos2x = 2(-6/7)^2 - 1

Cos2x = 2(36/49) - 1

Cos2x = 2 * (72/98) - 1

Cos2x = (2 * 0.7346938) - 1

Cos 2x = ( 1.4693877 - 1)

Cos2x = 0.4693877

Determine f^-1(2) given the following: f(1 = -3f(2) = -2f(-1) = 2f(3) = -1

lana [24]

We assume that the function is as follows:

$f^{-1_{}}(2)=?$

Then, we have that:

$f^{-1}(x)=\frac{1}{f(x)}$

Thus, if we have that:

$f(2)=-2\Rightarrow f^{-1^{}_{}}(x)=\frac{1}{f(x)}\Rightarrow f^{-1}(2)=\frac{1}{f(2)}=\frac{1}{-2}\Rightarrow f^{-1}(2)=-\frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, the value for the function is f^-1(2) = -1/2 or

$f^{-1}(2)=-\frac{1}{2}$

11. What method can be used to prove these two triangles are congruent?

zubka84 [21]

This would be SAS. If that’s wrong I’m sorry but it’s the only thing that makes sense, the dashes indicate they are the same and then the circle at the point also indicates that they’re the same so you have two sides and one angle that are the same, so it should be SAS.
