Notice that both A and B are multiplied by (1/2).
Thus, the given expression can be re-written as [(1/2)(A+B)]^2.
Square the (1/2) and the (A+B) separately, and then multiply together the resulting squares:
(1/4)(A^2 + 2AB + B^2)
Hello from MrBillDoesMath
Answer:
[email protected] = - sqrt(7)/ 4
which is choice B
Discussion:
This problem can be solved by drawing triangles and looking at ratios of sides or by using the trig identity:
([email protected])^2 + (sin2)^2 = 1
If [email protected] = 3/4
, the
([email protected])^2 + (3/4)^2 = 1 => (subtract (3/4)^2 from both sides)
([email protected])^2 = 1 - (3/4)^2 = 1 - 9/16 = 7/16
So...... taking the square root of both sides gives
[email protected] = +\- sqrt(7)/ sqrt(16) = +\- sqrt(7)/4
But is [email protected] positive or negative? We are told that @ is in the second quadrant and cos(@) is negative in this quadrant, so our answer must be negative
[email protected] = - sqrt(7)/ 4
which is choice B
Thank you,
Mr. B
M=-2/5 is the answer to this equation
Answer:
7/10
Step-by-step explanation:
You can either use a calculator, or make both fractions have the denominator of 35 and change the two fractions to be,
and
then divide.
Hope that helps and have a great day!
