tan^2(210)+sqrt(3)cos(330)

Solution

tan^{2} (21 0^{\circ}) + 3 cos (33 0^{\circ})

Solution

\frac{11}{6}

Decimal

1.83333 \dots

Solution steps

tan^{2} (21 0^{\circ}) + 3 cos (33 0^{\circ})

Rewrite using trig identities:

tan (21 0^{\circ}) = \frac{3}{3}

tan (21 0^{\circ})

tan (21 0^{\circ}) = tan (3 0^{\circ})

tan (21 0^{\circ})

Rewrite

21 0^{\circ}

18 0^{\circ} + 3 0^{\circ}

= tan (18 0^{\circ} + 3 0^{\circ})

Apply the periodicity of

tan

tan (x + 18 0^{\circ}) = tan (x)

tan (18 0^{\circ} + 3 0^{\circ}) = tan (3 0^{\circ})

= tan (3 0^{\circ})

= tan (3 0^{\circ})

Use the following trivial identity:

tan (3 0^{\circ}) = \frac{3}{3}

tan (3 0^{\circ})

= \frac{3}{3}

= \frac{3}{3}

Rewrite using trig identities:

cos (33 0^{\circ}) = \frac{3}{2}

cos (33 0^{\circ})

Rewrite using trig identities:

cos (18 0^{\circ}) cos (15 0^{\circ}) - sin (18 0^{\circ}) sin (15 0^{\circ})

cos (33 0^{\circ})

Write

cos (33 0^{\circ})

cos (18 0^{\circ} + 15 0^{\circ})

= cos (18 0^{\circ} + 15 0^{\circ})

Use the Angle Sum identity:

cos (s + t) = cos (s) cos (t) - sin (s) sin (t)

= cos (18 0^{\circ}) cos (15 0^{\circ}) - sin (18 0^{\circ}) sin (15 0^{\circ})

= cos (18 0^{\circ}) cos (15 0^{\circ}) - sin (18 0^{\circ}) sin (15 0^{\circ})

Adjust Fractions based on the LCM

Multiply each numerator by the same amount needed to multiply its

corresponding denominator to turn it into the LCM

For

\frac{1}{3} :

multiply the denominator and numerator by

2

\frac{1}{3} = \frac{1 \cdot 2}{3 \cdot 2} = \frac{2}{6}

For

\frac{3}{2} :

multiply the denominator and numerator by

3

\frac{3}{2} = \frac{3 \cdot 3}{2 \cdot 3} = \frac{9}{6}

= \frac{2}{6} + \frac{9}{6}

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

\frac{a}{c} \pm \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \pm b}{c}

= \frac{2 + 9}{6}

Add the numbers:

2 + 9 = 11

= \frac{11}{6}
