Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You should remember from theory (one is the formula of the cosine of the double angle, and the other is the classic sum of squares being 1). cos A = cos^2 \frac A2 - sin^2 \frac A2 = 1- 2sin^2 \frac A2

At this point let's grab the first and last step of the chain, replacing values:

\frac 13 = 1-2sin^2\frac A2 \rightarrow 2sin^2 \frac A2 =\frac23\\sin^2 \frac A2 = \frac13 \rightarrow sin \frac A2 = \frac{1}{\sqrt3} = \frac{\sqrt3}{3}

Last passage you multiply top and bottom by the square root of 3 to rationalize.

1.What is the y-intercept of the plane whose equation is 4x + 5y – z = 20?
Katena32 [7]

In case of plane, for y intercept, x and z are o .

So we will get

4(0)+5y-0=20

5y=20

Dividing both sides by 5

y = 4

So the y intercept is (0,4,0).

In second question, x intercept is 1, y intercept is -1 and z intercept is 2 .

So the correct option is the third equation , that is x-y+2z=4 .

How is writing expressions with variables and numbers similar to writing expressions using words?
RUDIKE [14]

The expressions in which the numbers, or variables, or both, are connected by operational signs (+, - etc.) are called algebraic expressions. For example 5, 4x, a+b, x−y.
