here is the first hint:
\[\begin{gathered}
\tan \left( {\frac{{5\pi }}{6}} \right) = \tan \left( {\pi - \frac{\pi }{6}} \right) = \hfill \\
\hfill \\
= \frac{{\tan \pi - \tan \left( {\pi /6} \right)}}{{1 + \tan \pi \cdot \tan \left( {\pi /6} \right)}} = ...? \hfill \\
\end{gathered} \]
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
and the second hint (without calculator):
\[\begin{gathered}
\tan \left( { - \frac{{11\pi }}{6}} \right) = \tan \left( {\frac{\pi }{6} - 2\pi } \right) = \hfill \\
\hfill \\
= = \frac{{\tan \left( {\pi /6} \right) - \tan \left( {2\pi } \right)}}{{1 + \tan \left( {2\pi } \right) \cdot \tan \left( {\pi /6} \right)}} = ...? \hfill \\
\end{gathered} \]

With the second one, from the numbers that I put in I got \[\sqrt{3}/3\]

OpenStudy (michele_laino):
ok!
OpenStudy (liv1234):
Is that correct?
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
yes! the second one is correct!
OpenStudy (liv1234):
With the first one, I got \[-\sqrt{3}\]
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
I got a different result

I think my calculations were wrong, let me re-input them.
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
hint:
please, keep in mind this value:
\[\tan \left( {\pi /6} \right) = \frac{1}{{\sqrt 3 }}\]
OpenStudy (liv1234):
Is it \[\sqrt{3}\]
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
I think it isn't correct
OpenStudy (liv1234):
\[-\sqrt{3}/3\]

at \theta=0, we have cos(2 \theta)=2
OpenStudy (liv1234):
When I attempted this question, I think I got graph B as the answer, but I think I'm wrong.
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
more correctly, \[2\cos \left( {2\theta } \right) = 2,\quad if\;\theta = 0\]
OpenStudy (liv1234):
So, not B?

please note that:
\[2\cos \left( {2\theta } \right) = 2,\quad if\;\theta = \pi \]
OpenStudy (liv1234):
C!?
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
that's right!
OpenStudy (liv1234):
Could you help me with another question please?(:
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
I'm sorry, I have to go to dinner

Is the correct answer D? I'm not guessing, I really think its D, but I'm not sure.
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
here, we have to keep in mid that:
\[\begin{gathered}
\tan \left( {\frac{{4\theta }}{3}} \right) = 0,\quad if\;\theta = 0 \hfill \\
\hfill \\
\tan \left( {\frac{{4\theta }}{3}} \right) = + \infty ,\quad if\;\theta = \frac{{3\pi }}{8} \hfill \\
\end{gathered} \]
OpenStudy (liv1234):
B!?
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
yes! I think so

Can you help me with one more question please? Its the last one and it'll be quick I promise please?
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
I'm very sorry, I have to go to dinner :(
OpenStudy (liv1234):
Okay, thank you very much!
