1a. Let x be an arbitrary angle. Verify that (sin x + cos x)^2 = 1 + 2sinxcosx You may assume the Pythagorean identities for arbitrary angles. b. Find an acute angle y such that sin y + cos y = squareroot (2). c. Let x be an arbitrary acute angle. Prove that sin x + cos x >= 1.
shankvee need ur help!!!!!!!!!
a) (sin x+ cos x)^2= (sin x)^2 + (cos x)^2 + 2 sin x cos x since (sin x)^2 + (cos x)^2 =1 so the answer is 1 + 2 sin x cos x b) sin y+ cos y =sqrt(2) square 1+2sin y cos y= 2 2sin y cos y=1 2sin y cos y =sin 2y sin 2y=1 2y= 90(degrees) y=45; c)AM > GM (sin x +cos x)/2 >= sqrt(sin x cos x) sin x+ cos >sqrt(2sin 2x) since greatest value of sin 2x =1 so sin x + cos x>sqrt(2) so sin x +cos x>1
shankvee pls help me!!!!!!
tejeshwar help you in what?
Hello shankvee...I dont understand anything you type..
please can you explain to me some more...
are you there shankvee
ok be specific what did you not understand... see (sin x)^2 + (cos x)^2 =1 since; sin x=perpendicular/hypotenuse cos x=base / hypotenuse now square and add since (perpendicular)^2+(base)^2=(hypotenuse)^2
part b....you said square (1 + 2sin y cos y = 2) Did you mean put it in Square root?
and part c you said AM > GM..what does that mean?
are you there sir/maam?
not sir i am also a student Ok i'll make it simple for you just square the equation in part b and use the identity of part a then you get sin x cos x=1/2 so x=45
for the third i'll give you an easier answer see (cos x +sin x)^2 = 1+2sin x cos x that means (sin x +cos x)^2 is some value greater than 1 so sin x + cos x is also greater than 1
THANK YOU!
I have another problem! Can you help me with it?
