Answer:

Dividing a power of 4 by 4 is equivalent to ( reducing,) the exponent by (1).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the power of 4 be 3

4 *4*4

We divide by 4

4*4*4/4 = 4*4 = 4^2

So we removed 1 power

Notice that 3-1 =2

Let 4 be raised to any power

4^a

We divide by 4

4^a/4 we remove 1 of the powers

we are left with

4^(a-1)

So we reduce the exponent by 1

A student is given that point P(a, b) lies on the terminal ray of angle Theta, which is between StartFraction 3 pi Over 2 EndFra

Harman [31]

Answer:

A.

The student made an error in step 3 because a is positive in Quadrant IV; therefore,

$cos\theta = \frac{a\sqrt{a^2 + b^2}}{a^2 + b^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$P\ (a,b)$

$r = \± \sqrt{(a)^2 + (b)^2}$

$cos\theta = \frac{-a}{\sqrt{a^2 + b^2}} = -\frac{\sqrt{a^2 + b^2}}{a^2 + b^2}$

Required

Where and which error did the student make

Given that the angle is in the 4th quadrant;

The value of r is positive, a is positive but b is negative;

Hence;

$r = \sqrt{(a)^2 + (b)^2}$

Since a belongs to the x axis and b belongs to the y axis;

$cos\theta$ is calculated as thus

$cos\theta = \frac{a}{r}$

Substitute $r = \sqrt{(a)^2 + (b)^2}$

$cos\theta = \frac{a}{\sqrt{(a)^2 + (b)^2}}$

$cos\theta = \frac{a}{\sqrt{a^2 + b^2}}$

Rationalize the denominator

$cos\theta = \frac{a}{\sqrt{a^2 + b^2}} * \frac{\sqrt{a^2 + b^2}}{\sqrt{a^2 + b^2}}$

$cos\theta = \frac{a\sqrt{a^2 + b^2}}{a^2 + b^2}$

So, from the list of given options;

The student's mistake is that a is positive in quadrant iv and his error is in step 3
