Answer:
Explanation:
so this involves a big long formula.. I suspect that if you look at the video it will tell you the formula you need. or you can look up laws of addition for sin. it's very common but also complex. So I can see why you've posted this as a question. look at the video, then put a comment in the comments below if you don't get it okay so in the video they probably give you these formulas which you'll need..
Sin(a+b)=sin(a)cos(b)+cos(a)sin(b)
Cos(a+b)=cos(a)cos(b) - sin(a)sin(b)
now we need to figure out what cos(Ф) is and what cos(∅) is ( we're given sin of both ) and we're told they are in the 2nd quadrant.. which means that the fractions have a negative sign on them both
Ф=theta
∅= phi
to find Cos(Ф) use 1=
(Ф) +
(Ф)
use your algebra skills to solve for Cos(Ф)
√(1-
(Ф) ) = Cos(Ф)
√( 1 - (
)^2 ) = Cos(Ф)
√( 1 - 400/841) = Cos(Ф)
√( 441/841 ) =Cos(Ф)
√441 / √841 = Cos(Ф)
21/29 = Cos(Ф)
now the same long process for Cos(∅)
√(1-
(∅) ) = Cos(∅)
√( 1 - (
)^2 ) = Cos(∅)
√( 1 - 64/289) = Cos(∅)
√( 225/289) = Cos(∅)
√225 / √289 = Cos(∅)
15 / 17 = Cos(∅)
now we can finally plug in the known values of
sin(Ф) = - 20/29 (b/c this is in the 2nd quad it's negative)
sin(∅) = - 8/17 ( same as above)
cos(Ф) = - 21/29 ( same as above)
cos(∅) = - 15/17 ( same as above)
into those addition formulas above, here they are again
Sin(Ф+∅)=sin(Ф)cos(∅)+cos(Ф)sin(∅)
Sin(Ф+∅)= (-20/29)(-15/17) + (-21/29)(-8/17)
Sin(Ф+∅)= 300/493 + 168/493
Sin(Ф+∅)= 468/493
that's the 1st answer... I told you this is long :/ now we need this formula
Cos(Ф+∅)=cos(Ф)cos(∅) - sin(Ф)sin(∅)
Cos(Ф+∅= (-21/29)(--15/17) - (20/29)(-8/17)
Cos(Ф+∅)=315/493 - 160/493
Cos(Ф+∅)= 155/493
there is the 2nd answer... ask if you need more explanations :?
