QUESTION 1


cos\ \theta = (12)/(13)\\\theta = cos^(-1)(12)/(13) = 22.62\textdegree = 0.3948\ (\text{radians})

QUESTION 2


(3\pi)/(2) < \theta < 2\pi\ \text{then find}\ sin(2\theta)

First, the fact that we have
sin(2\theta) means we have to adjust our range


(3\pi)/(2) < \theta < 2\pi\ \ \text{becomes}\ \ 3\pi < 2\theta < 4\pi\


sin\ 2\theta = (3\pi)/(2)\\2\theta = sin^(-1) (3\pi)/(2)\\2\theta = \text{error}

There are no solutions to inverse sin of
(3\pi)/(2)\\
