\displaystyle\int_{-1}^{-\sqrt2/2}\frac{\mathrm dy}{y\sqrt{4y^2-1}}

Try setting y=\dfrac12\sec t, so that \mathrm dy=\dfrac12\sec t\tan t\,\mathrm dt. The interval then changes from -1\le y\le-\dfrac{\sqrt2}2 to \dfrac{2\pi}3\le t\le \dfrac{3\pi}4.

Now, the integral is

\displaystyle \int_{2\pi/3}^{3\pi/4} \frac{\dfrac12\sec t\tan t}{\dfrac12\sec t\sqrt{4\left(\dfrac12\sec t\right)^2-1}}\,\mathrm dt=\int_{2\pi/3}^{3\pi/4}\frac{\tan t}{\sqrt{\sec^2t-1}}\,\mathrm dt

The Pythagorean identity lets you reduce the denominator:

\sqrt{\sec^2t-1}=\sqrt{\tan^2t}=|\tan t|

Since \tan t for the given interval, you have |\tan t|=-\tan t, which means the integral is equal to

\displaystyle\int_{2\pi/3}^{3\pi/4}\frac{\tan t}{-\tan t}\,\mathrm dt=-\int_{2\pi/3}^{3\pi/4}\mathrm dt=-\dfrac\pi{12}

The measure of EFH is twice the measure of GFH. What is the
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

30° =  m∠GFH

Step-by-step explanation:

Since ∠EFH and ∠GFH are complementary, the sum of their measures i 90.

Let x = m∠GFH

2x = m∠EFH

m∠GFH + m∠EFH = 90

x + 2x = 90

3x = 90

x = 30° =  m∠GFH

Twice the difference of a number and 2 is equal to three times the sum of the number and 3. Find the number. The number is nothi
trasher [3.6K]

The number is -13.

In order to find this, we first need to make each part of the statement into a mathematical statement.

Twice the difference of a number and 2.

2(x - 2)

Three times the sum of the number and 3

3(x + 3)

Now we can set them equal to each other and solve.

2(x - 2) = 3(x + 3) ----> Distribute

2x - 4 = 3x + 9 ------> Subtract 2x from both sides

-4 = x + 9 -----> Subtract 9 from both sides

-13 = x

What is the difference of the fractions? Use the number line and equivalent fractions to help find the answer.
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

  (c)  -3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtracting a positive number moves you to the left on the number line. Subtracting a negative number moves you in the opposite direction, to the right.

Here, we start at -2 1/2 = -5/2, and we move 1 3/4 = 7/4 to the right from there. Each mark on this number line is 1/4 unit, so we move 7 marks. The results is ...

  -2 1/2 -(-1 3/4) = -5/2 +7/4

  = -10/4 +7/4 = -3/4
