Answer:

a) x_{1} = \frac{\pi}{3}\,rad, x_{2} = \frac{5\pi}{3}\,rad, b) x_{1} = \frac{\pi}{4}\,rad, x_{2} = \frac{3\pi}{4}\,rad, x_{3} = \frac{5\pi}{4}\,rad, x_{4} = \frac{7\pi}{4} \,rad

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We proceed to solve the expression by algebraic and trigonometrical means:

1) 3\cdot \sec x + 2 = 8

2) 3\cdot \sec x = 6

3) \sec x = 2

4) \frac{1}{\cos x} = 2

5) \cos x = \frac{1}{2}

6) x = \cos^{-1} \frac{1}{2}

Cosine has positive values in first and fourth quadrants. Then, we have the following two solutions:

x_{1} = \frac{\pi}{3}\,rad, x_{2} = \frac{5\pi}{3}\,rad

b) We proceed to solve the expression by algebraic and trigonometrical means:

1) 6\cdot \cos^{2} x = 3

2) \cos^{2} x = \frac{1}{2}

3) \cos x = \pm\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}

4) x = \cos^{-1} \left(\pm \frac{\sqrt {2}}{2} \right)

There is one solution for each quadrant. That is to say:

x_{1} = \frac{\pi}{4}\,rad, x_{2} = \frac{3\pi}{4}\,rad, x_{3} = \frac{5\pi}{4}\,rad, x_{4} = \frac{7\pi}{4} \,rad

A service station will be built on the highway, and a road will connect it with cray. How long will the new road be?
maxonik [38]

Answer:

46.2 mi is the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we will follow the property of congruence of two triangles.

Here two triangles formed are triangle formed by Alba, Cray and Blare and a triangle formed by Service station, Cray and Blare.

The distance between Alba and Blare = 130 mi

The distance between Alba and Cray = 120 mi

As we know in the congruent triangles all sides are in the same ratio.

Now we apply the property of the theorem

\frac{Distance(Alba-Cray)}{Distance(Alba-Blare)}= \frac{Distance(Cray-Service station)}{Distance(Cray-Blare)}

\frac{120}{130}=\frac{x}{50}

x=50\frac{120}{130}

x = 46.2 mi
