Simplify

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{ 2 }+[\frac{ 1-\sqrt{3} }{ \sqrt{3} }*\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{ \sqrt{3+1} }]\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ANSWER = \[\frac{ 3\sqrt{3}-4 }{ 2 }\]

hartnn (hartnn):

isn't that sqrt 3+1 instead of sqrt(3+1) ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am postin the real question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\sin(\sin^-1\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{ 2 }+\cos^-1\frac{ 1 }{ 2 })+\tan(\sin^-1\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }+\tan^-1(-1))\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got till the step I've posted first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i am calculating using my calculator it is giving the right answer but when i do it myself i am doing it somewhere wrong

hartnn (hartnn):

sin (60+60) = sin 120 = sqrt 3 /2 = first term = correct. tan (30-45) = tan (-15) ... hmm

hartnn (hartnn):

how did you go about finding tan 15 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i calculated in radians

hartnn (hartnn):

show your work, i'll spot the error.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay wait

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i am stuck here how to add these

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{ 2 }+\frac{ 1-\sqrt{3} }{ \sqrt{3}+1 }\]

hartnn (hartnn):

for 2nd term, multiply and divide by sqrt 3-1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u mean conjugate??

hartnn (hartnn):

yup.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

don't we do it for denominator??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sqrt3 +1

hartnn (hartnn):

in denominator of 2nd term, (sqrt 3 +1 ) (sqrt 3-1) =.... ?

hartnn (hartnn):

in numerator of 2nd term, (1-sqrt 3) (sqrt 3-1) =.... ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can u show me how to get it done

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i am doing it wrong again i think

hartnn (hartnn):

\(\large \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{ 2 }+\frac{ 1-\sqrt{3} }{ \sqrt{3}+1 } \times \frac{\sqrt3-1}{\sqrt3-1} = \)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i did it

hartnn (hartnn):

:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{ 2 } + \frac{ 2\sqrt{3}-4 }{ 2 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ 3\sqrt{3}-4 }{ 2 }\]

hartnn (hartnn):

yes....
