Hi, I am new to this website :) I'm currently taking an online trig class on De Moivre's theorem and I don't understand it at al

Vladimir [108]

De Moivre's theorem uses this general formula z = r(cos α + i sin α) that is where we can have the form a + bi. If the given is raised to a certain number, then the r is raised to the same number while the angles are being multiplied by that number.

For 1) [3cos(27))+isin(27)]^5 we first apply the concept I mentioned above where it becomes

[3^5cos(27*5))+isin(27*5)] and then after simplifying we get, [243 (cos (135) + isin (135))]

it is then further simplified to 243 (-1/ √2) + 243i (1/√2) = -243/√2 + 243/√2 i
and that is the answer.

For 2) [2(cos(40))+isin(40)]^6, we apply the same steps in 1)

[2^6(cos(40*6))+isin(40*6)],

[64(cos(240))+isin(240)] = 64 (-1/2) + 64i (-√3 /2)

And the answer is -32 -32 √3 i

Summary:
1) -243/√2 + 243/√2 i
2)-32 -32 √3 i

The height of a wooden pole, h, is equal to 15 feet. Ataut wire is stretched from a point on the ground to the top of the pole.

Taya2010 [7]

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

The height of a wooden pole, h, is equal to 15 feet. A taut wire is stretched from a point on the ground to the top of the pole. The distance from the base of the pole to this point on the ground, b. is equal to 8 feet. What is the length of the wire?

Answer:

Length of wire = 17 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The height of the wooden pole is, $h=15\ ft$

The distance from the base of the pole to this point on the ground is, $b=8\ ft$

Let the length of the wire be 'l'.

Now, consider the triangle formed by the pole, the base, and the wire. The length of the wire is the slant length and hence the hypotenuse of the triangle.

Using Pythagorean theorem, we can find the hypotenuse.

$(Hypotenuse)^2=(height)^2+(base)^2\\l^2=h^2+b^2$

Plug in the given values and solve for 'l'. This gives,

$l^2=15^2+8^2\\\\l^2=225+64\\\\l^2=289\\\\l=\sqrt{289}\\\\l=\pm17$

As length can never be negative, we ignore the negative result.

Therefore, the length of the wire is 17 feet.

What are the domain and range of the function? f(x)=−3/5x^3

vichka [17]

f(x)= −3/5x³

The domain is all values x can be. There are no restrictions on x. it can be any real number (-∞ , ∞)

The range is all values y can be. There are noi restrictions on y either because the function is odd. y is (-∞ , ∞)

The best answer is D.
domain (-∞, 0] ∪[0, ∞)
range (-∞, 0] ∪[0, ∞)

In the diagram below of triangle OPQ, R is the midpoint of OQ and S is

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

Measurement of OP = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

R is mid point of OQ

S is mid point of PQ

RS = 18 – 4x

OP = -9 + 7x

Find:

Measurement of OP

Computation:

R is mid point of OQ and S is mid point of PQ;

By using mid point theorem

[1/2][OP] = RS

So,

[1/2][-9 + 7x] = [18 - 4x]

[-9 + 7x] = 2[18 - 4x]

-9 + 7x = 36 - 8x

7x + 8x = 36 + 9

15x = 45

x = 45 / 15

x = 3

So,

OP = -9 + 7x

OP = -9 + 7(3)

Measurement of OP = 12
