Question 16 (Essay Worth 7 points) Verify the identity. tan (x + π/2) = -cot x

Mathematics
1 answer:
Rus_ich [418]3 years ago
6 0

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that tan=sin/cos, so tan(x+π/2)=

\frac{sin(x+pi/2)}{cos(x+pi/2)}

Then, we know that sin(u+v)=sin(u)cos(v)+cos(u)sin(v),

so our equation is then

\frac{sin(x)cos(\pi/2)+cos(x)sin(\pi/2)}{cos(x+\pi/2)}  = \frac{cos(x)}{cos(x+\pi/2) }

Then, cos(u+v)=cos(u)cos(v)-sin(u)sin(v), so our expression is then

\frac{cos(x)}{cos(x)cos(\pi/2)-sin(x)sin(\pi/2)} = \frac{cos(x)}{-sin(x)} = -cot(x)

Answer: a. (x-6) + 5x = 90 b. Angle One = 10° Angle Two = 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Since angle 1 plus angle 2 is a right angle, then their sum is 90 degrees. The equation form angle 1 is x-6 and the equation for angle 2 is 5x, so (x-6) + 5x = 90

B. To find x,

x - 6 + 5x = 90

x + 5x = 96

6x = 96

x = 16

So, angle one = (16) - 6 = 10° and angle two = 16 * 5 = 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

1. m = (9-3)/(2-1) = 6/1 = 6 => B

2. m = (-7-5)/(2+1) = -12/3 = -4 => G

3. the horizontal line passes (0,4) => m = 0 =>I

4. m = (2-1)/(8-8) = 1/0 = oo => undefined => A
