OpenStudy (michele_laino):

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): \[\begin{gathered} \tan \left( { - \frac{{11\pi }}{6}} \right) = \tan \left( {\frac{\pi }{6} - 2\pi } \right) = \hfill \\ \hfill \\ = = \frac{{\tan \left( {\pi /6} \right) - \tan \left( {2\pi } \right)}}{{1 + \tan \left( {2\pi } \right) \cdot \tan \left( {\pi /6} \right)}} = ...? \hfill \\ \end{gathered} \]

OpenStudy (liv1234):

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

OpenStudy (liv1234):

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):

\[-\sqrt{3}/3\]

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

that's right!

OpenStudy (liv1234):

Thank you! Could you help me with another question please?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

ok!

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

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?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

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

OpenStudy (liv1234):

It'll be quick though, please???

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

ok!

OpenStudy (liv1234):

OpenStudy (liv1234):

OpenStudy (liv1234):

OpenStudy (liv1234):

OpenStudy (liv1234):

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

OpenStudy (liv1234):

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!
