Can anyone explain those marked steps in case (iii)

Tema [17]

$\cos\dfrac{3x}2=\cos\left(\dfrac\pi2+\dfrac x2\right)$
$\implies \dfrac{3x}2=2n\pi+\dfrac\pi2+\dfrac x2$

follows from the fact that the cosine function is $2\pi$ -periodic, which means $\cos x=\cos(2\pi+x)$ . Roughly speaking, this is the same as saying that a point on a circle is the same as the point you get by completing a full revolution around the circle (i.e. add $2\pi$ to the original point's angle with respect to the horizontal axis).

If you make another complete revolution (so we're effectively adding $4\pi$ ) we get the same result: $\cos x=\cos(4\pi+x)$ . This is true for any number of complete revolutions, so that this pattern holds for any even multiple of $\pi$ added to the argument. Therefore $\cos x=\cos(2n\pi+x)$ for any integer $n$ .

Next, because $\cos(-x)=\cos x$ , it follows that $\cos x=\cos(2n\pi-x)$ is also true for any integer $n$ . So we have

$\implies \dfrac{3x}2=2n\pi\pm\left(\dfrac\pi2+\dfrac x2\right)$

The rest follows from considering either case and solving for $x$ .

-3x^2 plus 24x = 27 <br> complete the square

Rudik [331]

You can divide the whole expression by -3:

$-3x^2+24x=27 \iff x^2-8x = -9$

Recalling that

$(x-a)^2=x^2-2ax+a^2$

Let's compare the middle term:

$-8x = -2ax \iff a=4$

So, we want to complete

$(x-4)^2 = x^2-8x+16$

Which differs from $x^2-8x$ by 16. So, if we add 16 to both sides, we have

$x^2-8x=-9 \iff x^2-8x+16=7 \iff (x-4)^2=7$

How do I solve questions 1,2 and 6?

Talja [164]

Answer:

<h2>1. P = 13.254</h2><h2>2. P = 6.64 + 2x</h2><h2>6. P = 10</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

$1.\\\text{The length of semicircle:}\\\\l=\dfrac{1}{2}d\pi\\\\d-diameter\\\\d=2.2\\\\\text{substitute:}\\\\l=\dfrac{1}{2}(2.2)\pi=1.1\pi\approx(1.1)(3.14)=3.454\\\\\text{The perimeter of the figure:}\\\\P=2(3.8)+2.2+3.454=13.254$

$2.\\P=2(3.32)+2x=6.64+2x$

$6.\\\text{Look at the picture.}\\\\P=4(2)+2(1)=8+2=10$
