UNIT ASSIGNMENT TRIGONOMETRY Question 1 zadc a). Find all solutions for sin (x )=√23 b). If sin (x )=1 3 and sec ( y)=54 , where 0≤ x ≤ π 2 and 0≤ y ≤ π 2 , evaluate the expression sin ⁡(x-y) . Answers a). x=π 3 +2πn , 23π +2πn , where n∈Z b). We know that sin θ=opp hyp , and since we know that sin (x )=1 3 , we can draw a triangle using that information, and we can find the unknown side using the Pythagorean theorem. Let the unknown side be x . x 2 +12=32 x 2 =9-1 x 2 =8 x=√8 x=2√2 Now that we know the length of the adjacent side, we can get the value of cos(x) , since cosθ= adj hyp , we know that cos ( x )= 23√2 . Since sec ( y )= 5 4 , and since cosθ= sec 1 θ , we know that cos ( y )= 4 5 . Using the same steps as before, we can find the value of sin( y) , by finding the length of the opposite side. Let the opposite side be x . Using the Pythagorean theorem, we get: x 2 +42=52 x 2 =25-16 x 2 =9 x=3 Now that we know the length of the opposite side, we can derive the value of sin ⁡( y) , which is 3 5 . Now let’s evaluate sin(x- y) . Using the angle difference formula, we get: sin (x-y )=sin (x )cos ( y )-cos (x )sin ( y ) Substituting all the known values into the equation, we get: sin (x-y )=(1 3 × 4 5)-(23√2 × 3 5) ¿ 4 15 - 2√2 5 ¿ 4-6√2 15 Question 2 Solve for all values of x in the given intervals. a). 2cos(x )+sin (2 x )=0 for 0≤ x ≤2 π b). 2sin2(x)=1 for x∈R c). tan2(x )-3=0 for x∈R Answers a). Combining all the solutions, we get x=π 2 , 32π . b). x= π4 +πn , 3π 4 +πn where n∈Z . x= π3 +πn , 2π 3 +πn where n∈Z . Question 3 Prove the following identities: a). cos(x+ π 2)=-sin (x) b).
