What is the exact value of cos(arcsin(35))\cos\left(\arcsin\left(\frac{3}{5}\right)\right) expressed as a decimal?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 0.8

Cevap

The exact value of the expression is 0.8.
Evaluating cos(arcsin(35))\cos\left(\arcsin\left(\frac{3}{5}\right)\right) requires finding the cosine of an angle θ\theta whose sine is 35\frac{3}{5}. In a right triangle with an opposite side of 3 and a hypotenuse of 5, the adjacent side is 5232=4\sqrt{5^2 - 3^2} = 4. The cosine of θ\theta is the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse, which gives 45=0.8\frac{4}{5} = 0.8.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Interpret the inverse sine function as an angle.
Let θ=arcsin(35)\theta = \arcsin\left(\frac{3}{5}\right), meaning sin(θ)=35\sin(\theta) = \frac{3}{5} for 0<θ<π20 < \theta < \frac{\pi}{2}.
The inverse sine function returns an angle whose sine is the given value within the principal interval [π2,π2]\left[-\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right].
2
Find the adjacent side of the right triangle associated with angle θ\theta.
adjacent=5232=16=4\text{adjacent} = \sqrt{5^2 - 3^2} = \sqrt{16} = 4.
By the Pythagorean theorem, a2+b2=c2a^2 + b^2 = c^2, so the adjacent side length is c2b2\sqrt{c^2 - b^2}.
3
Calculate the cosine of angle θ\theta.
cos(θ)=adjacenthypotenuse=45=0.8\cos(\theta) = \frac{\text{adjacent}}{\text{hypotenuse}} = \frac{4}{5} = 0.8.
Cosine is defined as the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse in a right triangle.

Cevap: 34\frac{3}{4}

Cevap

34\frac{3}{4}
Since θ=arcsin(35)\theta = \arcsin\left(\frac{3}{5}\right), sin(θ)=35\sin(\theta) = \frac{3}{5}. In a right-angled triangle with acute angle θ\theta, the opposite side is 3 and the hypotenuse is 5. By the Pythagorean theorem, the adjacent side is 5232=4\sqrt{5^2 - 3^2} = 4. The tangent of θ\theta is defined as the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side, which gives 34\frac{3}{4}.

1
Interpret the inverse trigonometric equation
sin(θ)=35\sin(\theta) = \frac{3}{5}
By definition of inverse sine, θ=arcsin(35)\theta = \arcsin\left(\frac{3}{5}\right) means sin(θ)=35\sin(\theta) = \frac{3}{5} for 0θπ20 \leq \theta \leq \frac{\pi}{2}.
2
Determine the side lengths of the reference right triangle
\text{opposite} = 3, \quad \text{hypotenuse} = 5, \quad \text{adjacent} = \sqrt{5^2 - 3^2} = 4

Cevap: -0.8

Cevap

The exact decimal value of cos(2arctan(3))\cos\left(2\arctan(-3)\right) is 0.8-0.8.
Letting θ=arctan(3)\theta = \arctan(-3) gives tan(θ)=3\tan(\theta) = -3. Utilizing the double-angle formula cos(2θ)=1tan2(θ)1+tan2(θ)\cos(2\theta) = \frac{1 - \tan^2(\theta)}{1 + \tan^2(\theta)}, we substitute tan(θ)=3\tan(\theta) = -3 to obtain 191+9=810=0.8\frac{1 - 9}{1 + 9} = \frac{-8}{10} = -0.8.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Define an angle variable for the inverse trigonometric expression.
Let θ=arctan(3)\theta = \arctan(-3), which means tan(θ)=3\tan(\theta) = -3 in Quadrant IV where π2<θ<0-\frac{\pi}{2} < \theta < 0.
Applying the standard definition and principal range of the arctangent function.
2
Apply the double-angle identity for cosine expressed in terms of tangent.
cos(2θ)=1tan2(θ)1+tan2(θ)\cos(2\theta) = \frac{1 - \tan^2(\theta)}{1 + \tan^2(\theta)}
This identity directly connects cos(2θ)\cos(2\theta) to the known value of tan(θ)\tan(\theta) without needing radicals.
3
Substitute tan(θ)=3\tan(\theta) = -3 into the identity and evaluate.
cos(2θ)=191+9=810=0.8\cos(2\theta) = \frac{1 - 9}{1 + 9} = \frac{-8}{10} = -0.8
Simplifying the numerical expression produces the exact decimal value.

Cevap: 177\frac{17}{7}

Cevap

The exact value of tan(απ4)\tan\left(\alpha - \frac{\pi}{4}\right) is 177\frac{17}{7}.
Evaluating α=arccos(513)\alpha = \arccos\left(-\frac{5}{13}\right) places α\alpha in Quadrant II (π2<α<π\frac{\pi}{2} < \alpha < \pi). In this quadrant, cosine is negative (513-\frac{5}{13}) and sine is positive (1213\frac{12}{13}), giving tanα=125\tan\alpha = -\frac{12}{5}.

9x23\frac{\sqrt{9 - x^2}}{3}
By letting θ=arccos(x3)\theta = \arccos\left(\frac{x}{3}\right), we construct a right triangle with an adjacent side of length xx and a hypotenuse of length 33. Applying the Pythagorean theorem yields an opposite side length of 32x2=9x2\sqrt{3^2 - x^2} = \sqrt{9 - x^2}. The sine of θ\theta is the ratio of the opposite side to the hypotenuse, which evaluates to 9x23\frac{\sqrt{9 - x^2}}{3}.

Cevap: 180

Cevap

The value of the expression is 180 degrees.
To evaluate arcsin(32)+arccos(12)\arcsin\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) + \arccos\left(-\frac{1}{2}\right), find the principal value for each term. The principal range for arcsin\arcsin is [90,90][-90^\circ, 90^\circ], so arcsin(32)=60\arcsin\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) = 60^\circ. The principal range for arccos\arccos is [0,180][0^\circ, 180^\circ], so for a negative argument, the result lies in Quadrant II, giving arccos(12)=120\arccos\left(-\frac{1}{2}\right) = 120^\circ. Adding these values together gives 60+120=18060^\circ + 120^\circ = 180^\circ.

257-\frac{25}{7}
Let θ=arctan(724)\theta = \arctan\left(-\frac{7}{24}\right). By definition of the inverse tangent function's principal range (π2,π2)\left(-\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right), a negative input produces an angle in Quadrant IV. In Quadrant IV, the opposite side is 7-7, the adjacent side is 2424, and the hypotenuse is 242+(7)2=25\sqrt{24^2 + (-7)^2} = 25. Cosecant is the ratio of hypotenuse to opposite, giving 257=257\frac{25}{-7} = -\frac{25}{7}.

Cevap: 2425-\frac{24}{25}

Cevap

The exact value of sin(2θ)\sin(2\theta) is 2425-\frac{24}{25}.
The angle θ=arctan(43)\theta = \arctan\left(-\frac{4}{3}\right) lies in Quadrant IV (π2<θ<0-\frac{\pi}{2} < \theta < 0) because the range of arctan(x)\arctan(x) is (π2,π2)\left(-\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right). Using a right triangle in Quadrant IV with opposite side 4-4 and adjacent side 33, the hypotenuse is 55. Hence, sin(θ)=45\sin(\theta) = -\frac{4}{5} and cos(θ)=35\cos(\theta) = \frac{3}{5}. Using the double-angle identity sin(2θ)=2sin(θ)cos(θ)\sin(2\theta) = 2\sin(\theta)\cos(\theta), we get 2(45)(35)=24252\left(-\frac{4}{5}\right)\left(\frac{3}{5}\right) = -\frac{24}{25}.

1
Determine the quadrant and trigonometric ratios for θ\theta
Since θ=arctan(43)\theta = \arctan\left(-\frac{4}{3}\right), the angle θ\theta is in Quadrant IV where π2<θ<0-\frac{\pi}{2} < \theta < 0. In this quadrant, the opposite side is 4-4, the adjacent side is 33, and the hypotenuse is 32+(4)2=5\sqrt{3^2 + (-4)^2} = 5. Therefore, sin(θ)=45\sin(\theta) = -\frac{4}{5} and cos(θ)=35\cos(\theta) = \frac{3}{5}.
The range of the principal arctangent function is (π2,π2)\left(-\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right), so a negative input places the angle in Quadrant IV.

Cevap: 2.4

Cevap

The exact decimal value of tan(arcsin(1213))\tan\left(\arcsin\left(\frac{12}{13}\right)\right) is 2.42.4.
Letting θ=arcsin(1213)\theta = \arcsin\left(\frac{12}{13}\right), we establish a right triangle in Quadrant I with opposite side length 1212 and hypotenuse length 1313. The adjacent side length is calculated via the Pythagorean theorem as 132122=5\sqrt{13^2 - 12^2} = 5. The tangent of this angle is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side, 125\frac{12}{5}, which equals 2.42.4.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Define the angle using the inverse trigonometric expression
Let θ=arcsin(1213)\theta = \arcsin\left(\frac{12}{13}\right), which implies sin(θ)=1213\sin(\theta) = \frac{12}{13} in Quadrant I.
The inverse sine function returns an angle whose sine is the given ratio, restricted to the principal interval [π2,π2]\left[-\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right].
2
Determine cos(θ)\cos(\theta) using the fundamental trigonometric identity
\cos(\theta) = \sqrt{1 - \sin^2(\theta)} = \sqrt{1 - \left(\frac{12}{13}\right)^2} = \frac{5}{13}
Since θ\theta is in Quadrant I, cos(θ)\cos(\theta) is positive.
3
Evaluate tan(θ)\tan(\theta) as the ratio of sine to cosine
\tan(\theta) = \frac{\sin(\theta)}{\cos(\theta)} = \frac{12/13}{5/13} = \frac{12}{5} = 2.4
Dividing opposite by adjacent (or sine by cosine) yields the exact decimal value 2.42.4.
