FIND\[ \tan (\frac{ a }{ 2 })\]
KNOWING
\[\sin(a)+\cos(a)=\frac{ 7 }{ 5 }\]
and a E (0,pi/3)
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
By E, you mean ?

As we don't know the first step how to proceed here, let us take us risk here.. :P
Square both the sides first...
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
someone is mixing the replies
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Who's that?? @SolomonZelman
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
No clue, maybe it is nobody...
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
Anyway, back to the math part...

Are you hesitating to say your name? :P

@Alexander95 I am expecting a reply from your side...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes.......
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I mean, not "yes", just square both sides buddy and show us where you have reached..

sin(2a)=24/25

\[[\sin(a) + \cos(a)]^2 = (\frac{7}{5})^2\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You are one step ahead of me, that's nice...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
a little bit faster @waterineyes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sin^2(a)+2sin(a)cos(a)+cos^2(a)=1+sin(2a)=(7/5)^2..
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Let me think myself also.. @Alexander95 and till then run your brain too..

So, we have got sin(2a) and can you find cos(2a) from here??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
nope
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I mean using the Identity:
\[\sin^2(x) + \cos^2(x) = 1\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
=sqrt(1-(24/25)^2)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Simplify it more..

7/25
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I got it from here
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You can do from here??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Really? Go ahead, if you see face of any difficulty, then face me I mean tell me.. :)
