Answer:

2/6561

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometric sequence formula : a_n=a_1(r)^n^-^1

where an = nth term, a1 = first term , r = common ratio and n = term position

given ratio : 1/3 , first term : 2 , given this we want to find the 9th term

to do so we simply plug in what we are given into the formula

recall formula : a_n=a_1(r)^n^-^1

define variables : a1 = 2 , r = 1/3 , n = 9

plug in values

a9 = 2(1/3)^(9-1)

subtract exponents

a9 = 2(1/3)^8

evaluate exponent

a9 = 2 (1/6561)

multiply 2 and 1/6561

a9 = 2/6561

Prove that 1/sec0-tan0= sec0+tan0
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{LHS}=\frac{1}{\sec \theta-\tan \theta}\\=\frac{\sec \theta+\tan \theta}{(\sec \theta-\tan \theta)(\sec \theta+\tan \theta)}\\=\frac{\sec \theta+\tan \theta}{\sec^{2} \theta-\tan^{2} \theta}\\=\frac{\sec \theta+\tan \theta}{1}\\=\sec \theta+\tan \theta\\=\text{RHS}
