By definition of tangent,

tan(2<em>θ</em>) = sin(2<em>θ</em>) / cos(2<em>θ</em>)

Recall the double angle identities:

sin(2<em>θ</em>) = 2 sin(<em>θ</em>) cos(<em>θ</em>)

cos(2<em>θ</em>) = cos²(<em>θ</em>) - sin²(<em>θ</em>) = 2 cos²(<em>θ</em>) - 1

where the latter equality follows from the Pythagorean identity, cos²(<em>θ</em>) + sin²(<em>θ</em>) = 1. From this identity we can solve for the unknown value of sin(<em>θ</em>):

sin(<em>θ</em>) = ± √(1 - cos²(<em>θ</em>))

and the sign of sin(<em>θ</em>) is determined by the quadrant in which the angle terminates.

<em />

We're given that <em>θ</em> belongs to the third quadrant, for which both sin(<em>θ</em>) and cos(<em>θ</em>) are negative. So if cos(<em>θ</em>) = -4/5, we get

sin(<em>θ</em>) = - √(1 - (-4/5)²) = -3/5

Then

tan(2<em>θ</em>) = sin(2<em>θ</em>) / cos(2<em>θ</em>)

tan(2<em>θ</em>) = (2 sin(<em>θ</em>) cos(<em>θ</em>)) / (2 cos²(<em>θ</em>) - 1)

tan(2<em>θ</em>) = (2 (-3/5) (-4/5)) / (2 (-4/5)² - 1)

tan(2<em>θ</em>) = 24/7

prisoha [69]

Answer:

-3x²-5xeˣ-eˣ

-3eˣx²-11eˣx-6eˣ

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to go by the picture and not what you wrote in your title.

To find the derivative of this we have to apply the product rule

(a*b)'=

a'*b+a*b'

We plug in our numbers and get

(-3x²+x-2)'*eˣ+(-3x²+x-2)*eˣ'

Now we can evaluate the derivatives and simplify

(-3x²+x-2)'= -6x+1

eˣ'=eˣ

which means we have

(-6x+1)*eˣ+(-3x²+x-2)*eˣ

Simplify

-6xeˣ+eˣ-3x²eˣ+xeˣ-2eˣ

Combine like terms

-3x²eˣ-5xeˣ-eˣ

Now we just need to find the derivative of this

We can apply the same product rule as we did before

(-3x²eˣ)'

Let's start by factoring out the -3 to get

-3(x²eˣ)'

which is equal to

-3(x²eˣ'+x²'eˣ)

Compute this and get

-3(x²eˣ+2xeˣ)= -3x²eˣ-6xeˣ

Now let's find the derivative of the second part

(-5xeˣ)'

-5(x'eˣ+xeˣ')

-5(eˣ+xeˣ)

-5eˣ-5xeˣ

Which means we have

(-3x²eˣ-6xeˣ)+(-5eˣ-5xeˣ)-eˣ

Combine like terms and get

-3eˣx²-11eˣx-6eˣ

3) Solve the problem using your graphing calculator. Round all para meter values to the nearest hundredth.
Mama L [17]

Answer:

mmm, well, not much we can do per se, you'd need to use a calculator.

I'd like to point out you'd need a calculator that has regression features, namely something like a TI83 or TI83+ or higher.

That said, you can find online calculators with "quadratic regression" features, which is what this, all you do is enter the value pairs in it, to get the equation.

Two squares have areas of 4 cm?
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First square area = 4cm^2, thus the side length is 2cm

Second square area = 16cm^2, thus the side length is 4cm

This gives a ratio of 2/4, simplifying yields 1/2

3. A garden is going to be built in the city park in the shape of a parallelogram with a rectangular walkway through it. The gar
Law Incorporation [45]
The answer is "3600 ft²".

Left triangle area=(1/2) x (30 ft) x (72 ft) = 1080 ft²


Middle walkway area=(20 ft) x (72 ft) = 1440 ft²


Right triangle area
=same as left triangle area, 1080 ft²


Total area1080 ft²+1440 ft²+1080 ft² = 3600 ft²
Now you can also check that;

Parallelogram area = base x height = (50 ft) x (72 ft) = 3600 ft²
