Consider the following points on the graphs of y=cosx and y=cosx2 with the added vertical dashed lines:
Find C and D
I tried finding the cosine of points a and b but not sure how I continue here
I think there are a couple of different ways to take lthis question.
Looking at the graph I can see that b=a+2pi
From a to b is a whole wavelength of cos a and a half a wavelength of cos (a/2)
This means that
1-d = c - - 1
1-d= c+1
c=-d
cosa=18cos(a2+a2)=18cos2(a2)−sin2(a2)=18cos2(a2)−(1−cos2(a2))=182cos2(a2)−1=182cos2(a2)=98cos2(a2)=916cos(a2)=±34discount the positive answerc=cos(a2)=−34
d=34
huh. I never thought that you could prove c in terms of d
Thanks Melody!
