What is the exact value of sin(theta + beta)?

Mathematics

NISA [10]2 years ago

Answer:  \frac{-3\sqrt{13}+4\sqrt{3}}{20}

This is the single fraction of -3*sqrt(13)+4*sqrt(3) up top all over 20.

sqrt = square root

=======================================================

Explanation:

Angle theta is between pi and 3pi/2. This places the angle in quadrant Q3 where both cosine and sine are negative

Use the pythagorean trig identity to get the following:

\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta = 1\\\\\sin^2 \theta + \left(-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}\right)^2 = 1\\\\\sin^2 \theta + \frac{3}{16} = 1\\\\\sin^2 \theta = 1 - \frac{3}{16}\\\\\sin^2 \theta = \frac{16}{16} - \frac{3}{16}\\\\\sin^2 \theta = \frac{16-3}{16}\\\\\sin^2 \theta = \frac{13}{16}\\\\\sin \theta = -\sqrt{\frac{13}{16}} \ \text{ ... sine is negative in Q3}\\\\\sin \theta = -\frac{\sqrt{13}}{\sqrt{16}}\\\\\sin \theta = -\frac{\sqrt{13}}{4}\\\\

Angle beta is in Q1 where sine and cosine are positive.

Draw a right triangle with legs 3 and 4. The hypotenuse is 5 through the pythagorean theorem. In other words, we have a 3-4-5 right triangle.

Since \tan \beta = \frac{3}{4}, this means \sin \beta = \frac{3}{5} \ \text{ and } \ \cos \beta = \frac{4}{5}

Use these ideas:

  • sin = opposite/hypotenuse
  • cos = adjacent/hypotenuse
  • tan = opposite/adjacent

In this case we have: opposite = 3, adjacent = 4, hypotenuse = 5.

-------------------------------------

To recap:

\cos \theta = -\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}\\\\\sin \theta = -\frac{\sqrt{13}}{4}\\\\\cos \beta = \frac{3}{5}\\\\\sin \beta = \frac{4}{5}\\\\

They lead to this

\sin\left(\theta + \beta\right) = \sin \theta * \cos \beta - \cos \theta * \sin \beta\\\\\sin\left(\theta + \beta\right) = -\frac{\sqrt{13}}{4} * \frac{3}{5} - \left(-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}\right) * \frac{4}{5}\\\\\sin\left(\theta + \beta\right) = -\frac{3\sqrt{13}}{20}+\frac{4\sqrt{3}}{20}\\\\\sin\left(\theta + \beta\right) = \frac{-3\sqrt{13}+4\sqrt{3}}{20}\\\\

After mixing two types of candies, the price became $3.40 per lb. The quantity of the first type of candy was 5/12 of the quanti
drek231 [11]

Answer:

$2.90

Step-by-step explanation:

The quantity of the 1st type of candy be x lb and that of the second type − y lb with the price of $ p/lb.

Then, x=5y/12 or y=2.4x.

The "total price" equation will be: 4.6x + 2.4xp = 3.4(x+2.4x).  

Solving for p, we get p = $2.90.
