Q. Select the answer which is equivalent to the given expression using your calculator. cosA=6552 and A is in Quadrant I.Find cos2A.42252366422540564225202842251183
Apply Double Angle Formula: Use the double angle formula for cosine: cos(2A)=2cos2(A)−1. Given cosA=6552, we can substitute this into the formula. cos(2A)=2(6552)2−1.
Calculate (52/65)2: Calculate (52/65)2 to simplify the expression.(52/65)2=(522)/(652)=2704/4225.
Substitute Value: Substitute the value back into the double angle formula. cos(2A)=2(42252704)−1.
Multiply and Subtract: Multiply 2 by 2704/4225. 2×2704/4225=5408/4225.
Perform Final Subtraction: Subtract 1 from 5408/4225. Since 1 is equivalent to 4225/4225, we will perform the subtraction as follows:5408/4225−4225/4225=(5408−4225)/4225.
Perform Final Subtraction: Subtract 1 from 5408/4225. Since 1 is equivalent to 4225/4225, we will perform the subtraction as follows:5408/4225−4225/4225=(5408−4225)/4225.Perform the subtraction to find the value of cos(2A).(5408−4225)/4225=1183/4225.
