Answer:

pi/6, 5pi/6, 7pi/6, 11pi/6

Step-by-step explanation:

3(sec x)^2 -4=0

Add 4 on both sides:

3(sec x)^2=4

Divide 3 on both sides:

(sec x)^2=4/3

Take square root of both sides:

sec x=plus/minus sqrt(4/3)

Reciprocal identity:

cos x=plus/minus sqrt(3/4)

Simplify the radical:

cos x=plus/minus sqrt(3)/2

So we are looking on the unit circle where the first coordinate of the order pair is either sqrt(3)/2 or -sqrt(3)/2.

This happens at pi/6, 5pi/6, 7pi/6, 11pi/6

Answer:

\sf \boxed{\sf x = \dfrac{\pi}{6},\dfrac{5\pi}{6},\dfrac{7\pi}{6},\dfrac{11\pi}{6}}

Step-by-step explanation:

A trigonometric equation is given to us , and we need to find the solutions of the equation within the interval [ 0,2π ]

The given equation is ,

\sf\longrightarrow 3(sec x)^2-4=0

This can be written as ,

\sf\longrightarrow 3sec^2x - 4 = 0

Add 4 to both sides of the equation ,

\sf\longrightarrow 3sec^2x = 4

Divide both sides by 3 ,

\sf\longrightarrow sec^2x =\dfrac{4}{3}

Put squareroot on both sides ,

\sf\longrightarrow sec \ x =\sqrt{\dfrac{4}{3} }

Simplify ,

\sf\longrightarrow sec\ x =\pm \dfrac{2}{\sqrt3}

Multiply numerator and denominator by √3 ,

\sf\longrightarrow \bf sec(x) = \dfrac{ 2\sqrt3}{3},-\dfrac{2\sqrt3}{3}

Solve for x ,

\sf\longrightarrow x = \dfrac{\pi}{6} +2\pi n , \dfrac{11\pi}{6}+2\pi n , \textsf{ for any integer n } .

Therefore all the possible solutions are ,

\sf\longrightarrow \boxed{\blue{\sf x = \dfrac{\pi}{6},\dfrac{5\pi}{6},\dfrac{7\pi}{6},\dfrac{11\pi}{6}}}

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of one triangle = 6*16/2 = 48 cm²

Lateral Surface Area = Are of 4 traiangles = 4*48 = 192 cm²

Area of the bottom square = 6 * 6 = 36 cm²

Total Surface Area = 192 + 36 = 228 cm²

Which points are on the the graph equation -3x+6y+5=-7
algol [13]
-3x + 6y + 5 = -7
<u>                -5    -5</u>
      -3x + 6y = -12
-3x + 3x + 6y = -12 + 3x
               <u>6y</u> = <u>-12 + 3x</u>
                6           6
                 y = -2 + 1/2x
-3x + 6(-2 + 1/2x) = -12
       -3x - 12 + 3x = -12
         -3 + 3x - 12 = -12
                0x - 12 = -12
                <u>     +12    +12</u>
                       <u>0x</u> = <u>0</u>
                        0     0
                         x = 0
           -3(0) + 6y = -12
                0 + 6y = -12
              <u>+0             +0</u>
                      <u>6y</u> = <u>-12</u>
                       6       6
                        y = -2
                  (x, y) = (0, -2)
