Prove the following identities and give the values of \(x\) for which they are true. $$\sin \left(2 \sin ^{-1} x\right)=2 x \sqrt{1-x^{2}}$$
Once Kate's kite reaches a height of \(50 \mathrm{ft}\) (above her hands), it rises no higher but drifts due east in a wind blowing \(5 \mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{s} .\) How fast is the string running through Kate's hands at the moment that she has released \(120 \mathrm{ft}\) of string?
Visualizing tangent and normal lines a. Determine an equation of the tangent line and normal line at the given point \(\left(x_{0}, y_{0}\right)\) on the following curves. (See instructions for Exercises \(63-68 .)\) b. Graph the tangent and normal lines on the given graph. \(\left(x^{2}+y^{2}\right)^{2}=\frac{25}{3}\left(x^{2}-y^{2}\right);\) \(\left(x_{0}, y_{0}\right)=(2,-1)\) (lemniscate of Bernoulli)
Find \(f^{\prime}(x), f^{\prime \prime}(x),\) and \(f^{\prime \prime \prime}(x)\) \(f(x)=\frac{x^{2}-7 x}{x+1}\)
A lighthouse stands 500 m off of a straight shore, the focused beam of its light revolving four times each minute. As shown in the figure, \(P\) is the point on shore closest to the lighthouse and \(Q\) is a point on the shore 200 m from \(P\). What is the speed of the beam along the shore when it strikes the point \(Q ?\) Describe how the speed of the beam along the shore varies with the distance between \(P\) and \(Q\). Neglect the height of the lighthouse.
