LetA and B be obtuse angles such thatsinA=(4)/(5)andcosB=-(12)/(13).

Answer»

`-(63)/(65)`
`-(33)/(65)`
`(33)/(65)`
`(63)/(35)`

Solution :`sinA=(4)/(5)andcosB=-(12)/(13)`
It is given that A and B are obtuse angle
`rArrcosA=+-sqrt(1-sin^(2))A=+-sqrt(1-(16)/(25))=-(3)/(5)`
Negative sign is taken for cos A SINCE A being obtuse lies in second quadrant.
`sinB=+-sqrt(1-cos^(2)B)=+-sqrt(1-((-12)/(13))^(2))`
`=sqrt((169-144)/(169))=(5)/(13)`
Positive sign is taken since , sin B is positive in second quadrant .
`rArrcosA=(-3)/(5)andsinB=(3)/(13)`
`thereforesin(A+B)=sinAcosB+cosAsinB`
`=(4)/(5)XX((-12)/(13))+(-3)/(5)xx((5)/(13))=-(48)/(65)-(15)/(65)`
`=(-48-15)/(65)=(-63)/(65)`

Show that the opeation * on Q -{1} defined gby a*b=a+b-ab for all a, b in Q- {1} Satifies (i) the closure property (ii) the associative law (iii) the commutative alw (iv) what is theidentity element ? (v)for each a in Q-{1} find the inverse of a

Answer»

Solution :(i) closure porperty
Let a `in` Q-{1} and b in Q-{1}
We know that Q is closed for addition substraction and MULTIPLICATION
`therefore`a+b-ab in Q
but a*b =1 `rarr` a+b-ab=1
`rarr` a(1-b)=(1-b)`rarra`=1
which is a contradication since 1 `in` Q-{1}
therefore a*b `ne` 1
Thus a `in` Q-{1} ,b `in` Q-{1} `rarr` a*b in Q-{1}
`therefore` * is a binary operation on Q-{1}
(II) Associative law
Let a,b,c =(a+b-ab)*c
=(a+b-ab)+c-(a+b-ab)c
=(a+b+c)-(ab+BC+ac)+bc
And a*(b*c)=a*(b+c-bc)
=a(b+c-bc)-a(b+c-bc)
=(a+b+c)-(ab+bc+ac)+abc
`therefore` (a*b)*c=a*(b*c)
Hence * is associative
(iii) commutative Law
Let a,b `in`Q-{1} Then
a*b=a+b-ab ltrbgt =b+a-ab
=b*a
(iv)Existence of identity element
Let e be the identity element
Then for all a in Q-{1} we have
a* e =a `rarr` a + e - ae =a
`rarr` e(1-a)=x `rarre=0 in` Q-{1}
Nowa*0=a+0-ax0=a
And 0*a=0+a-0xa=a ltrbgt Thus o is the identity element in Q-{1}
Existence of inverse
Let a in Q-{1} and `le t a^(-1)=b`then
a*b=0 `rarra`+b-ab=0
`rarr` a=ab-b=(a-1)b
`RARRB=(a)/(a-1)in Q-{1}`
`therefore a^(-1)=(a)/(a-1)in Q-{1}`
Thus each a in Q-{1} has its iverse in Q-{1}
