Math Problem Statement
Evaluate. Express your answer in radians and in terms of .
cos−1 2=
a) sin−1 3= b) 2 2
c) tan−1(1)=
d) sin−1− 3= e) cos−1−1= f) tan−1− 3=
2 2 3
Solution
Let's evaluate the inverse trigonometric functions given in the question and express the answers in radians and in terms of .
a)
- The sine function only outputs values in the range . Since is greater than 1, this expression is undefined.
b)
- .
- The cosine of 0 radians (or 0 degrees) is 1. Therefore:
So,
c)
- The tangent of radians (or 45 degrees) is 1. Therefore:
So,
d)
- The sine of radians (or degrees) is . Therefore:
So,
e)
- The cosine of radians (or 180 degrees) is . Therefore:
So,
f)
- The tangent of radians (or degrees) is . Therefore:
So,
