Hint: The domain and range of \[\Large y = \sqrt{x}\] is [0,infinity)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

huh lol sorry

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

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

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

if you want negative outputs from a square root function, you have to tack on a negative sign on the outside

so false?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yeah there is no way to get -sin(theta) when it should be +sin(theta)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yayay thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it wasnt false ):

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

hmm let me think

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it's ok i already submitted

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

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 :)
