Q3)Given that the equation


[sin(theta) - cos(theta)]/[sin(theta)+cos(theta)] =6sin(theta)/cos(theta),

find the exact values of tan(theta).Hence find (theta) for 0<=(theta)<=360
some one solve this ques plz...

yaa...that's that

By the way if you don't want to confuse urself bt taking tan2theta and then substituting

assume tan theta=x and then solve. Get value for x then sub tan theta in it

and yeah use periodic property to get the answer within the given range

Q5)The straight line y=x-1 meets the curve y=x2-5x-8 at the points A and B. The curve y=p+qx-2x2 also passes through the points A and B. Find the values of p and q.

first find where they intersect

x-1 = x2 - 5x -8

simplifies to

-x2 + 6x + 7 =0

x = -1                 x = 7
y = -2                 y= 6

------------------------------

y = -2x2 + qx + p

substitute the values

x = -1 ; u get p=q

substitute x=7 and 'q' for 'p' (because they are equal) ; u get q = 13

so the curve is

-2x2 + 13q + 13

@Z.J - equation of a circle?..or  area

ok..check this

http://www.analyzemath.com/CircleEq/CircleEq.html

so the answer wud be

y = sqrt(16 - x^2)


By the way--did u understand the other question?

she means equation addiii...

yeah It's

r=8cm....let centre be (h,k)
let point P be a point on the circumference of a circle with coordinates (x,y)

then

(x-h)2 + (y-k)2=r2

(x-h)2+(y-k)2=16(42)

I assume centre is (0,0) since it is not given

assuming....h and k become 0

x2+y2=16
equation is  x2+y2-16=0

equation of the circle has the general form

x2+y2+2gx+2fy+c=0

where centre is (-g,-f) and radius is root of (g2+f2-c)

@adi...how do u use the square root sign??

its latex

click that "pi" symbol next to "sub" "sup" and others..

for square root type ... sqrt(type here) in the latex form.. i.e after clicking "pi"

like this

sqrt(I am an orangutan)

wait....hows p=q?
im stuck..

wen u substitute x=-1 ad y=-2 in the equation

y = -2x2 + qx + p

u get

-2 = -2 -q + p

-2 + 2 = p - q

p-q =0

p=q

The equation of a curcle with centre and radius r is (a,b) is (x-1)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2
r=4 if the diameter is 8
