Answer:

E(29/4,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Segment CD has point E located on it such that CE:ED = 3:5

The coordinates of C and D are (5, -6) and (11,18) respectively.

We need to find the coordinates of E. Let the coordinates are (x,y). Using section formula to find it as follows :

(x,y)=(\dfrac{m_1x_2+m_2x_1}{m_1+m_2},\dfrac{m_1y_2+m_2y_1}{m_1+m_2})\\\\(x,y)=(\dfrac{3(11)+5(5)}{3+5},\dfrac{3(18)+5(-6)}{3+5})\\\\=\dfrac{29}{4},3

So, the coordinates of E are (29/4,3).

Find the exact value of cos 157.5°.
Nonamiya [84]
Cos 157.5º=-cos (180º-157.5º)=-cos 22.5=-cos(45/2)

cos Ф/2=⁺₋√((1+cosФ)/2).

In this case 157.5º is in the second quadrant, therefore we use the following equation:
cos Ф/2=-√((1+cosФ)/2).          (we will have a negative number)

cos 157.5º=-cos (45/2)=-√((1+cos 45º)/2)
=-√((1+√2/2)/2)
=-√((2+√2)/4)
=-√(2+√2) / 2   (≈-0.92387...)

Answer: cos 157.5º= -√(2+√2) / 2
