A little monkey had some peaches. On the first day he decided to keep ½ of his peaches. He gave the rest away. Then he ate one.

On the second day he decided to keep ½ of his peaches. He gave the rest away then he ate one. On the third day he decided to keep ½ of his peaches. He gave the rest away. Then he ate one. On the fourth day, he found he had only one peach left. How many did he have at the beginning?

Find sin(a)&cos(B), tan(a)&cot(B), and sec(a)&csc(B).

Reil [10]

Answer:

Part A) $sin(\alpha)=\frac{4}{7},\ cos(\beta)=\frac{4}{7}$

Part B) $tan(\alpha)=\frac{4}{\sqrt{33}},\ tan(\beta)=\frac{4}{\sqrt{33}}$

Part C) $sec(\alpha)=\frac{7}{\sqrt{33}},\ csc(\beta)=\frac{7}{\sqrt{33}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) Find $sin(\alpha)\ and\ cos(\beta)$

we know that

If two angles are complementary, then the value of sine of one angle is equal to the cosine of the other angle

In this problem

$\alpha+\beta=90^o$ ---> by complementary angles

so

$sin(\alpha)=cos(\beta)$

Find the value of $sin(\alpha)$ in the right triangle of the figure

$sin(\alpha)=\frac{8}{14}$ ---> opposite side divided by the hypotenuse

simplify

$sin(\alpha)=\frac{4}{7}$

therefore

$sin(\alpha)=\frac{4}{7}$

$cos(\beta)=\frac{4}{7}$

Part B) Find $tan(\alpha)\ and\ cot(\beta)$

we know that

If two angles are complementary, then the value of tangent of one angle is equal to the cotangent of the other angle

In this problem

$\alpha+\beta=90^o$ ---> by complementary angles

so

$tan(\alpha)=cot(\beta)$

<em>Find the value of the length side adjacent to the angle alpha</em>

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

Let

x ----> length side adjacent to angle alpha

$14^2=x^2+8^2\\x^2=14^2-8^2\\x^2=132$

$x=\sqrt{132}\ units$

simplify

$x=2\sqrt{33}\ units$

Find the value of $tan(\alpha)$ in the right triangle of the figure

$tan(\alpha)=\frac{8}{2\sqrt{33}}$ ---> opposite side divided by the adjacent side angle alpha

simplify

$tan(\alpha)=\frac{4}{\sqrt{33}}$

therefore

$tan(\alpha)=\frac{4}{\sqrt{33}}$

$tan(\beta)=\frac{4}{\sqrt{33}}$

Part C) Find $sec(\alpha)\ and\ csc(\beta)$

we know that

If two angles are complementary, then the value of secant of one angle is equal to the cosecant of the other angle

In this problem

$\alpha+\beta=90^o$ ---> by complementary angles

so

$sec(\alpha)=csc(\beta)$

Find the value of $sec(\alpha)$ in the right triangle of the figure

$sec(\alpha)=\frac{1}{cos(\alpha)}$

Find the value of $cos(\alpha)$

$cos(\alpha)=\frac{2\sqrt{33}}{14}$ ---> adjacent side divided by the hypotenuse

simplify

$cos(\alpha)=\frac{\sqrt{33}}{7}$

therefore

$sec(\alpha)=\frac{7}{\sqrt{33}}$

$csc(\beta)=\frac{7}{\sqrt{33}}$
