Cot (15 degrees)

Mathematics
1 answer:
STatiana [176]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Part I: cot(15 degrees) = cot(45 - 30)

Part II: Evaluation is below

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Everything is done in degrees</em>

<em />

Two angles that differ by 15 degrees that is easy to evaluate is 30 degrees and 45 degrees. The cot(15 degrees) = cot(45 - 30) = 1/tan(45-30) = (1+tan45tan30)/(tan30 - tan45) = (1+ sqrt(3))/(sqrt(3) - 1)

We rationalize this by multiplying 1+ sqrt(3) in the top and bottom, getting:

(4 + 2sqrt(3))/2 = 2 + sqrt(3)

I hope this helps! :)

jenyasd209 [6]
Since there are 34% fewer, you multiply 297 x 0.34 = 100.98
Then you add 100.98 to 297 = 397.98
They had 397 employees.

LOT OF POINTS
guapka [62]

Answer:

<u>Given equations</u>: y = 3x² + x - 6; y = x - 4

So, Plug the value of value of y in other equation

  • 3x² + x - 6 = x - 4
  • 3x² + x - x - 6 + 4 = 0
  • 3x² - 2 = 0
  • 3x² = 2
  • x² = 2/3
  • x = √2/3

Let t = cosA + sinA<br> find values of t if <br> 2 - sin2A = 2(cosA + sinA)
Zinaida [17]

2 - \sin(2A) = 2(\cos A + \sin A)\\\\2-2\sin A\cos A=2\cos A+2\sin A\\\\2\sin A\cos A+2\cos A+2\sin A-2=0\\\\1+2\sin A\cos A+2\cos A+2\sin A-3=0\\\\\sin^2 A+\cos^2 A+2\sin A\cos A+2\cos A+2\sin A-3=0\\\\(\sin A+\cos A)^2+2\cos A+2\sin A-3=0\\\\(\sin A+\cos A)^2+2(\cos A+\sin A)-3=0\\\\\\t^2+2t-3=0\\\\t^2+2t+1-4=0\\\\(t+1)^2=4\\\\t+1=2\qquad\vee \qquad t+1=-2\\\\\\\boxed{t=1\qquad\vee\qquad t=-3}

When A\in\mathbb{R}

t=\cos A+\sin A\in[-\sqrt{2};\sqrt{2}]\approx[-1.4142;1.4142]

and there is only one answer t = 1.

For A\in\mathbb{C} both values are correct.

Find the 6th term of the geometric sequence, given the first term and common ratio a1= 5 and r=3/2
uysha [10]

<u>Answer</u>



37.96875



<u>Explanation</u>

In geometric sequence we use the formula below to find the nth of a sequence.


Tn = ar⁽ⁿ⁻¹⁾

Where a ⇒ first term

n ⇒ the term we are looking for

T₆ = 5 × (3/2)⁶⁻¹

= 5 × (3/2)⁵

= 5 × 243/32

= 1215/32

= 37 31/32

= 37.96875
