i need help as i dont get what method or topic is this but i am meant to be able to do this question please explain the answers or tell me the topics names
This is trigonometry.
4(a)
As sinx=cos(π2−x),sin(π3)=cos(π2−π3)=cos(π(12−13))=cos(π(16))=cos(π6)sin(π3)=cos(πk)cos(π6)=cos(πk)Comparing the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation,k=6
4(b)
cos(2x−5π6)=sin(π3)cos(2x−5π6)=cos(π6)As the cosine function is periodic with period 2π, cos(2x−5π6)=cos(π6+2nπ)As cosx=cos(−x), cos(2x−5π6)=cos(−π6+2nπ)Comparing the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation, 2x−5π6=π6+2nπ or 2x−5π6=−π6+2nπ2x=π+2nπ or 2x=2π3+2nπx=π2+nπ or x=π3+nπ
