If sin(x) = 5/13, and x is in quadrant 1, then tan(x/2) equals what?

Rufina [12.5K]

$x$ is in quadrant I, so $0$ , which means $0$ , so $\dfrac x2$ belongs to the same quadrant.

Now,

$\tan^2\dfrac x2=\dfrac{\sin^2\frac x2}{\cos^2\frac x2}=\dfrac{\frac{1-\cos x}2}{\frac{1+\cos x}2}=\dfrac{1-\cos x}{1+\cos x}$

Since $\sin x=\dfrac5{13}$ , it follows that

$\cos^2x=1-\sin^2x\implies \cos x=\pm\sqrt{1-\left(\dfrac5{13}\right)^2}=\pm\dfrac{12}{13}$

Since $x$ belongs to the first quadrant, you take the positive root ( $\cos x>0$ for $x$ in quadrant I). Then

$\tan\dfrac x2=\pm\sqrt{\dfrac{1-\frac{12}{13}}{1+\frac{12}{13}}}$

$\tan x$ is also positive for $x$ in quadrant I, so you take the positive root again. You're left with

$\tan\dfrac x2=\dfrac15$

Help! Clear the fractions

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

x = - $\frac{27}{20}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{5}{6}$ x + 2 = $\frac{7}{8}$

Multiply through by 24 ( the LCM of 6 and 8 ) to clear the fractions

20x + 48 = 21 ( subtract 48 from both sides )

20x = - 27 ( divide both sides by 20 )

x = - $\frac{27}{20}$

(08.03)Consider the following set of equations:

Furkat [3]

Answer:

Infinite solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation M is equation P multiplied by 3. The equations are dependent, so any solution of one of them is also a solution of the other. There are an infinite number of (x, y) pairs that will satisfy either (both) equation(s).
