Answer:

See proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

show that

sinx/1+cosx=tanx/2

From LHS

sinx/1+cosx

According to half angle

sinx = 2sinx/2 cosx/2

cosx = cos²x/2 - sin²x/2

cosx = cos²x/2 - (1- cos²x/2)

cosx = 2cos²x/2 - 1

cos x + 1 = 2cos²x/2

Substitute into the expression;

sinx/1+cosx

= (2sinx/2 cosx/2)/2cos²x/2

= sinx.2/cos x/2

Since tan x = sinx/cosx

Hence sinx/2/cos x/2 = tan x/2 (RHS)

This shows that sinx/1+cosx=tanx/2

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

We have a1 = 27 and r = 3 (because 27:9 = 3; 9:3 = 3; 3:3 = 1);

Then s = 27 / (1 - 3) ;

Finally, s = - 27 / 2;

Determine whether x=33 is a solution of the equation below 3= x/11

svp [43]

Answer:

Yes, x = 33 is a solution

Step-by-step explanation:

To see if it is a solution, plug in 33 as x

3 = x/11

3 = 33/11

3 = 3

Since this is correct, x = 33 is a solution.

In a square with side length of 6, what is the distance between the center of the square and the center of the largest equilater

Vanyuwa [196]

Place the right angle at the origin. Short leg on x-axis.
The forth corner of the square is the point on the hypotenuse where the line y = x intersects. (Draw a diagram!)
In this case the hypotenuse is y = -4x/3 + 8
x = -4x/3 + 8
7x/3 = 8
7x = 24
x = 3.428571429
