Graphed it should look like this.
Answer:
{0, 150} degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Given 2cos^2x-cost-1=0, let's simplify this problem by temporarily replacing cos x with y:
2y^2 - y -1 = 0
This can be solved by factoring: (2y + 1)(y - 1) = 0. From this we get two solutions: y = -1/2 and y = 1.
Remembering that we let y = cos x, we now solve:
cos x = -1/2 and cos x = 1.
Note that cos x = 1 when x = 0 and the "adjacent side" coincides with the hypotenuse.
cos x = -1/2 when the hypotenuse is 2 and the "adjacent side" is -1. This has two solutions between 0 and 360 degrees: 150 degrees and 270 degrees.
Four answer choices are given. Both (a) (0 degrees) and (b) (150 degrees) satisfy the original equation. Thus, the solution set is {0, 150} (degrees).
Answer:
413,000
Step-by-step explanation:
4y-17=43
move -17 to the other side
sign changes from -17 to +17
4y-17+17=43+17
4y=43+17
4y=60
divide both sides by 4 to get y by itself
4y/4=60/4
answer:
y=15
Answer: The answer is ∠TUV.
Step-by-step explanation: Given in the question a quadrilateral SVUT with ∠SVU = 112°. We need to determine the angle whose measure will decide whether or not the quadrilateral SVUT is a trapezoid.
We know that for a quadrilateral to be a trapezoid, we need only one condition that one pair of opposite sides must be parallel.
So, in quadrilateral SVUT, since the measure of ∠SVU is given, so we can decide it is a trapezoid or not if we know the measure of ∠TUV. As ST and UV cannot be parallel, so its meaningless to determine ∠TSV.
For SV and TU to be parallel to each other, we need
∠SVU + ∠TUV = 180° (sum of interior alternate angles).
Therefore,
∠TUV = 180° - 112° = 68°.
Thus, we need to determine ∠TUV and its measure shoul be 68°.
