Hint: The domain and range of \[\Large y = \sqrt{x}\] is [0,infinity)
huh lol sorry
basically you're not allowed to plug in negative x values into a square root function and the outputs of the square root function is never negative
if you want negative outputs from a square root function, you have to tack on a negative sign on the outside
so false?
yeah there is no way to get -sin(theta) when it should be +sin(theta)
yayay thanks
it wasnt false ):
hmm let me think
it's ok i already submitted
the only thing I can think of is to test angles in various quadrants ex: Test Q1. if theta = pi/4, then sqrt(1 - cos^2(theta) ) = -sin(theta) sqrt(1 - cos^2(pi/4) ) = -sin(pi/4) sqrt(1 - 1/2) = -sqrt(2)/2 sqrt(1/2) = -sqrt(2)/2 sqrt(2)/2 = -sqrt(2)/2 that last equation is false, so Q1 doesn't work. Check the other quadrants this way
it's ok lol dont worry :)
