Let t be a real number with cos(t)=3/7, 3pi/2 Find the exact value for each of the following:
Note:: If cos(t) = 3/7, sin(t) = sqrt[7^2-3^2]/7 = 2sqrt(10)/7
--------------------------
a. sin(t+3pi/2) -sin(t) = -3/7
Use the formula for sin(a+b) = sin(a)cos(b)+cos(a)sin(b)
= (2sqrt(10)/7)(0)+(3/7)(-1) = -3/7
-------------------------
b. sec(-t) = 1/cos(-t) = 1/cos(t) = 7/3
--------------------------
c. cos(2pi) = cos(0) = 1
----------------------------
d.cos(4pi/3 - t) = cos(4pi/3)*cos(t)+sin(4pi/3)*sin(t)
= (-cos(pi/3)*(3/7)+(-sin(pi/3)(2sqrt(10)/7)
= (-1/2)(3/7)+(-sqrt(3)/2)(2sqrt(10)/7)
= (-3/14)-2sqrt(30)/14
= -(3+2sqrt(30))/14
