Verify the identity (tan x + 1)^2 + (tan x-1)^2= 2 sec^2 x

Elina [12.6K]

$(\tan x+1)^2+(\tan x-1)^2=2\sec^2x\\\\\text{use}\ \tan x=\dfrac{\sin x}{\cos x}\\\\L_s=\left(\dfrac{\sin x}{\cos x}+\dfrac{\cos x}{\cos x}\right)^2+\left(\dfrac{\sin x}{\cos x}-\dfrac{\cos x}{\cos x}\right)^2\\\\=\left(\dfrac{\sin x+\cos x}{\cos x}\right)^2+\left(\dfrac{\sin x-\cos x}{\cos x}\right)^2\\\\=\dfrac{(\sin x+\cos x)^2}{\cos^2x}+\dfrac{(\sin x-\cos x)^2}{\cos^2x}\\\\\text{use}\ (a\pm b)^2=a^2\pm2ab+b^2$

$=\dfrac{\sin^2x+2\sin x\cos x+\cos^2}{\cos^2x}+\dfrac{\sin^2x-2\sin x\cos x+\cos^2}{\cos^2x}\\\\=\dfrac{\sin^2x+2\sin x\cos x+\cos^2+\sin^2x-2\sin x\cos x+\cos^2}{\cos^2x}\\\\=\dfrac{2\sin^2x+2\cos^2x}{\cos^2x}=\dfrac{2(\sin^2x+\cos^2x)}{\cos^2x}\\\\\text{use}\ \sin^2x+\cos^2x=1\\\\=\dfrac{2(1)}{\cos^2x}=2\cdot\dfrac{1}{\cos^2x}=2\left(\dfrac{1}{\cos x}\right)^2\\\\\text{use}\ \sec x=\dfrac{1}{\cos x}\\\\=2(\sec^2x)=2\sec^2x=R_s\\\\L_s=R_s\Rightarrow The\ identity$

4/5 of a class is girls and there are 8 boys. How many total in class.

Ann [662]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a+b=c

a=girls

b= boys

c= total

the statement tell us:

4/5 of a class is girls:

a=(4/5)*c

boys=b=8

c=a+b

so we have:

c=(4/5)*c + 8

c-(4/5)*c=8

(5c-4c)/5 = 8

c/5=8

c=8*5

c=40

total=40

Find the area bounded by the graphs of the indicated equations over the given interval.

NeX [460]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$y = 0$

is basically the horizontal axis.

First, find the integral of x^2-25.

Remember that

integral of a constant is that constant times x.

Also that

to take the integral of a power function, add 1 to the degree and divide by that same degree.

$y = {x}^{2} - 25$

We then get

$\frac{ {x}^{3} }{3} - 25x$

Evaluate at -3

$\frac{ - 3 {}^{3} }{3} - 25( - 3)$

$- 27 + 75 = 48$

Then we evaluate at 0

$\frac{0 {}^{3} }{3} - 25(0) = 0$

Next, we subtract the the answer then we get

$48 - 0 = 48$

Please help, I keep getting bots. <br> Using front-end estimation, find a reasonable estimate of:

Aleks [24]

Answer:

Roughly 18,000

Step-by-step explanation:

When you need to do rough mental math, you can do something like 720 vs 25 or 30 which is pretty simple to do in your head.

If you are very proficient in mental math, you can do something like 720 * 25, which is harder, but if you know the tricks, you can do this quickly.

720 * 25

Multiply 25 by 7.

175

Add two zeros.

17,500

Multiply 25 by 2

Add a zero.

500.

17500 + 500 = 18000
