On a unit circle, the terminal point of 0 is (sqrt3/2,1/2) What is 0?
2 answers:
Answer:
The measure of is 30°.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the statement, the angle has been misrepresented. The corrected statement is described below:
<em>"On a unit circle, the terminal point of </em><em> is </em>
<em>. What is </em>
<em>?"</em>
The measure of the angle (), in radians, is in standard form, that is, it is done with respect to the +x semiaxis. The measure of the angle whose terminal point is of the form
is determined by the following inverse trigonometric function:
(1)
If we know that and
, then the measure of
is:
The measure of is 30°.

To find the x-intercepts, we need to factorize the function. A very good idea is to first try the factors of 36:
f(1)=1-11+36-36, not 0
f(2)=8-44+72-36=-36+72-36=0. Here we have our first root (2).
Now we cad divide f(x) by (x-2) which will give us a quadratic expression, which we can factorize easily (if the discriminant is non negative).
We can also try some other factors of 36. Indeed we can check that
f(3)=27-99+108-36=135-135=0,
and
f(6)=216-396+216-36=0.
Thus, f(x)=(x-2)(x-3)(x-6). Note that if we expanded the right hand side expression, the constant term would be the product of the constants 2, 3, 6.
This is the reason why in the first place we looked at the factors of 36 for the possible zeros of f(x).
Thus, the x-intercepts are (2, 0), (3, 0), (6, 0), or 2, 3, 6.
The y-intercept is f(0), which is -36.
Note that f(0)<f(2) because f(0)=-36 and f(2)=0. This means that at the left side, the graph is coming from - infinity. Similarly,
we can check that f(10)=1000-1100+360-36=224> f(6). That is, to the right of our rightmost root, the graph is getting larger.
Thus, the end behaviors are: the graph goes to + infinity as x goes to + infinity,
and it goes to minus infinity as x goes to - infinity.
