Step-by-step explanation:

pythagorean theorem. a^2+b^2=c^2

1.5^2+b^2=6^2

2.25+b^2=12

12-2.25=b^2

b^2=9.75

take the square root

b=3.12

Answer: b = 5.809

Explanation:

Use Pythagorean’s Theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 => b^2 = c^2 - a^2

b^2 = 6^2 - 1.5^2
b^2 = 36 - 2.25
b^2 = 33.75
b = sqrt(33.75)
b = 5.809

Which formula gives the x-coordinates of the maximum values for y = cos(x)?

solong [7]

We have been given a function $y=\cos(x)$ . We are asked to find the formula which gives the x-coordinates of the maximum values for given function.

We know that cosine function oscillates between $-1$ and 1 that is minimum value of cosine is $-1$ and maximum value is $1$ .

We also know that $\cos(0)=1$ and after period of cosine is $2\pi$ . This means after every $2\pi$ , we will get to $1$ .

So maximum of cosine is $2\pi n$ , where n is an integer.

Therefore, our required formula is $2\pi n$ , where, $n=0,\pm 1,\pm 2,\pm3,...$
