Find the exact values of sin(u/2) cos(u/2) and tan(u/2) given sin u=24/25 and pie/2 < u < pie

Recall the double/half angle formulas:

\cos^2\dfrac x2=\dfrac{1+\cos x}2

\sin^2\dfrac x2=\dfrac{1-\cos x}2

We're given \sin u=\frac{24}{25}, and since u is between π/2 and π, we expect \cos u to be negative. So from the Pythagorean identity, we find

\sin^2u+\cos^2u=1\implies\cos u=-\sqrt{1-\sin^2u}=-\dfrac7{25}

Also, we know \frac u2 will fall between π/4 and π/2, so both \sin\frac u2 and \cos\frac u2 will be positive. Then we find

\cos\dfrac u2=\sqrt{\dfrac{1+\cos u}2}=\dfrac35

\sin\dfrac u2=\sqrt{\dfrac{1-\cos u}2}=\dfrac45

and it follows that

\tan\dfrac u2=\dfrac{\sin\frac u2}{\cos\frac u2}=\dfrac43

dedylja [7]

Answer:

R(s)\geq 2000,

Step-by-step explanation:

The function R(s) = 20s

She needs to sell at least 100 subscriptions, so the least amount she wants to have is: 20*100 = $2000  

Hence, is the domain of R(s) in this context

R(s)\geq 2000

A man is standing at a radar base and observes an unidentified plane at an altitude 6000m flying towards the radar base at an an
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

The speed in of the plane is 115.47 m/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height at which the plane is flying = 6000 m

Angle of elevation at the radar base = 30 Degrees

Angle of elevation at the radar base after one minute  = 60 Degrees

To Find:

The Speed of the plane in meter per second = ?

Solution:

Let us use the tangent of the angle to find the distance (d) to a point directly below plane:

<u>when the angle is 30 degrees</u>

tan(30) = \frac{6000}{d1}

d1   = \frac{6000}{tan(30)}

d1 = \frac{6000}{0.577}

d1 = 10392.3 meters

<u>when the angle is 60 degrees</u>

tan(60) = \frac{6000}{d2}

d2  = \frac{6000}{tan(60)}

d2  = \frac{6000}{1.732}\\

d2 = 3464.1 meters

<u>distance travelled by aircraft in 1 min is  </u>

=>d1 - d2

=>0392.3 - 3464.1

= 6928.2 m/min

<u>Now converting to m/sec</u>

=>\frac{6928.2}{60}

=>115.47 m/sec

Ilya [14]

Answer:

a₁ = 38

Step-by-step explanation:

Given AP, where:

  • 8a₈ = 12a₁₂
  • d = -2,
  • a₁ = ?

=============

<h3>Solution</h3>

aₙ = a₁ + (n-1)d

  • a₈ = a₁ + 7d = a₁ + 7*(-2) = a₁ - 14
  • a₁₂ = a₁ + 11d = a₁ + 11*(-2) = a₁ - 22

8a₈ = 12a₁₂

  • 8(a₁ - 14) = 12(a₁ - 22)
  • 2(a₁ - 14) = 3(a₁ - 22)
  • 2a₁ - 28 = 3a₁ - 66
  • 3a₁ - 2a₁ = -28 + 66
  • a₁ = 38

Please help me write quadratic equation given the roots and the leading coefficient
Pie

Answer:

Example Question: f(x) = 2x^2 + 2x - 1


If the leading coefficient is positive, the graph will be opening up (U) if the leading coefficient is negative, the graph will be opening down (n)


Roots are the x-intercepts that help find the axis of symmetry (add the two roots together and divide the result by 2 to get the axis of symmetry)


To find the vertex, simply imput the axis of symmetry into the given equation.


And that’s about it.
