cosx + sinx = 0 when sinx = -cosx.

By dividing both sides by cosx you get:

sinx/cosx = -1

tanx = -1

The values where tanx = -1 are 3pi/4, 7pi/4, etc.

Those are equivalent to 135 degrees, 315 degrees, etc.

If x is obtuse and sin x equals b how do you show sin 2x is less than b?

you need to explain it better but with what i got i if sin x equals b obviously sin 2x is double of b hence sin 2x is more than b. {Not obvious at all, actually. And the above is false. Sin(Pi/2) = 1 and Sin(Pi)=0. But clearly 2 is not greater than 0. Contradiction.} Obtuse means Pi/2 < x < Pi So, sin(x) = b means b>0, because sin(y) > 0 if 0<y<Pi sin(2x)=2sin(x)cos(x) cos(x) < 0 because cos(Pi/2)= 0 and the derivative is negative there. Hence, sin(2x) = 2 sin(x) cos(x) = 2*b*(-K), where K is a positive constant Since b>0, -2Kb < b


Sin x cos x equals 0?

For the product to be zero, any of the factors must be zero, so you solve, separately, the two equations: sin x = 0 and: cos x = 0 Like many trigonometric equations, this will have an infinity of solutions, since sine and cosine are periodic functions.


What is limit as x approaches 0 of sin squared x by x?

lim(x->0) of sin(x)^2/x we use L'Hospital's Rule and derive the top and the bottomd/dx(sin(x)^2/x)=2*sin(x)*cos(x)/1lim(x->0) of 2*sin(x)*cos(x)=2*0*1=0


Show that sin x equals cos x for some angle t between 0 and 90?

sin(x) = cos(x)sin(x)/cos(x) = tan(x) = 1x = arctan(1) = 45 degreessin(45)=cos(45) = Sqrt(2)/2 Answer: By observation. Since Sine = Opposite over hypotenuse and Cosine = Adjacent over hypotenuse. Any right angle triangle where the opposite and adjacent sides are the same length will have Sine equal to Cosine. This only happens with an isosceles triangle (two sides are equal in length). When one angle is 90o the other two are 45o.


What is the limit of x- sin x cos x over tan x -x as x tends to zero?

It is minus 1 I did this: sinx/cos x = tan x sinx x = cosx tanx you have (x - sinxcosx) / (tanx -x) (x- cos^2 x tan x)/(tanx -x) let x =0 -cos^2 x (tanx) /tanx = -cos^x -cos^2 (0) = -1

Cos 0 sin 0 plus 1 equals 0?

No. sin(0) = 0 So cos(0)*sin(0) = 0 so the left hand side = 1


What is the solution to sec plus tan equals cos over 1 plus sin?

sec + tan = cos /(1 + sin) sec and tan are defined so cos is non-zero. 1/cos + sin/cos = cos/(1 + sin) (1 + sin)/cos = cos/(1 + sin) cross-multiplying, (1 + sin)2 = cos2 (1 + sin)2 = 1 - sin2 1 + 2sin + sin2 = 1 - sin2 2sin2 + 2sin = 0 sin2 + sin = 0 sin(sin + 1) = 0 so sin = 0 or sin = -1 But sin = -1 implies that cos = 0 and cos is non-zero. Therefore sin = 0 or the solutions are k*pi radians where k is an integer.


What is the lim of h if it equals 0 Sinxcosh plus cosxsinh minus sinx divided by h?

lim(h→0) (sin x cos h + cos x sin h - sin x)/h As h tends to 0, both the numerator and the denominator have limit zero. Thus, the quotient is indeterminate at 0 and of the form 0/0. Therefore, we apply l'Hopital's Rule and the limit equals: lim(h→0) (sin x cos h + cos x sin h - sin x)/h = lim(h→0) (sin x cos h + cos x sin h - sin x)'/h' = lim(h→0) [[(cos x)(cos h) + (sin x)(-sin h)] + [(-sin x)(sin h) + (cos x)(cos h)] - cos x]]/0 = cosx/0 = ∞

Determine the measure of angle A if 0 degrees is smaller than or equal to A which is smaller than or equal to 90 degrees and cos125 degrees equals negative cos A?

cos(125) = cos(180 - 55) = cos(180)*cos(55) + sin(180)*sin(55) = -cos(55) since cos(180) = -1, and sin(180) = 0 So A = 55 degrees.

Can sine theta equals tan theta equals theta be true for small angles?

If sin θ = tan θ, that means cos θ is 1 (since tan θ = (sin θ)/(cos θ)) (Usually in and equation a/b=a, b doesn't have to be 1 when a is 0, but cos θ = 1 if and only if sin θ = 0) The angles that satisfy cos θ = 1 is 2n(pi) (or 360n in degrees) When n is an integer. But if sin θ = tan θ = θ, the only answer is θ = 0. Because sin 0 is 0 and cos 0 is 1 and tan 0 is 0 The only answer would be when θ = 0.
