if sin(x) = 5/13 for this angle what is cos(x)?
well the denom is 13 because it is the hypotenuse
so that would make the answer B
@Vocaloid
good, B is correct since cos(x) = 12/13 you can plug that into the half angle sin identity
B and C
hm when I solved for tan(x) I end up with tan(x) = 1/sqrt(3) and tan(x) = -sqrt(3), what x angle values correspond to these values?
so x = pi/6 gives us sin(x) = 1/2 and cos(x) = sqrt(3)/2 giving us tan = sin/cos = 1/2 * 2 / sqrt(3) = 1/ sqrt(3) [answer choice C] x = 2pi/3 gives us cos(x) = -1/2 and sin(x) = sqrt(3)/2 giving us sin/cos = sqrt(3)/2 * (-2) = -sqrt(3) making C+D the best options here got to go get lunch

@Vocaloid
disclaimer: not my sol'n, but you would have to use the identity sin(x)sin(y) = (1/2)[(cosx - cosy) - (cosx+cosy)] so you would end up with "cos" in the blank
so 0.36
no your problem is asking what goes into the blank of (1/2)(cospi/12 - ___5pi/12) notice how the solution given is (1/2)(cospi/12 - cos5pi/12) so cos would be the sol'n
oh okay i get it , i skipped the fact that there is a blank
A
well done
False
well done
C
|dw:1525485016864:dw|
it's the first identity so cos(a) should be in the blank
B
This is actually a wild guess
I dont know this one
sin(2 * theta) = 2 sin(theta) cos(theta) so sin(theta)cos(theta) = (1/2)sin(2theta) so we can re-write the problem like: h = v^2/4.9 * (1/2) * sin(2theta) = 150 plug v into the equation, leave sin(2theta) and 150 alone, see what you get
B
Actually tbh the calc i plugged it into is giving me error :/
v0 = 44 so 44^2/4.9 * (1/2) = ?
A =)
good
Cos?
first multiply the expression w/ foil csc^2 - 1 now check, any identities that might be useful here?|dw:1525485657556:dw|
cot?
good, cot(x) is your sol'n idk how they want you to write it but "cot(x)" maybe? or
or maybe just cotx
hm
What do you think would be the best, its 12th grade calc
precalc*
maybe just cotx
I really don't know ;; since the original expression doesn't have parentheses then maybe just cotx
yeah thats what i thought too
T
good
C
I got something a little different 3sin(2x) = 5cos(x) since sin(2x) = 2sin(x)cos(x) we can re-write the original as: 3[2sin(x)cos(x)] = 5cos(x) or 6sin(x)cos(x) - 5cos(x) = 0 factor out cos, what do you get?
you don't need to solve for x 6sin(x)cos(x) - 5cos(x) = 0 factor out cos(x) from both terms, what do you get?
6sin(x)-5
good so the entire expression becomes cos(x) * (6sin(x) - 5) = --> answer choice A
csc
or maybe sin ?
Im looking at the chart you provided
yeah cos is right
okay cos
not csc right
yes
cos?
|dw:1525486730678:dw|
if you let alpha = pi/3 and beta = pi/6 it should be the fourth identity, so sin not cos
F
|dw:1525486892217:dw|
this is the cos half angle identity re-stated so I'm leaning towards true
False
good
F
|dw:1525487174793:dw|
if you take 1 + cot^2(x) = csc^2(x), subtract csc^2(x) from both sides you get 1 + cot^2(x) - csc^2(x) = 0 subtracting 1 from each side gives us cot^2(x) - csc^2(x) = -1 making the original statement true
A and D
hm if we let A = x and B = pi/7 then our expression becomes sin(A)cos(B) - cos(A)sin(B) = sqrt(2)/2 using the sin(A-B) identity we get sin(A-B) = sqrt(2/2) plugging the x and pi/7 back in we get sin(x-pi/7) = sqrt(2/2) take the arcsin of both sides and solve for x
B
good but there's one more value where sin(x) = sqrt(2)/2, check the unit circle again
C
good so B+C can we close this question, it's getting a bit laggy
