Find the exact value of each expression. (a) \(\sin \left(\frac{3 \pi}{4}+\frac{5 \pi}{6}\right)\) (b) \(\sin \frac{3 \pi}{4}+\sin \frac{5 \pi}{6}\)
Use inverse functions where needed to find all solutions of the equation in the interval \([0,2 \pi)\). $$\csc ^{2} x-5 \csc x=0$$
Use a graphing utility to approximate the solutions (to three decimal places) of the equation in the interval \([0,2 \pi)\). $$\sec ^{2} x+0.5 \tan x-1=0$$
Find the \(x\) -intercepts of the graph. $$y=\sec ^{4}\left(\frac{\pi x}{8}\right)-4$$
(a) use a graphing utility to graph the function and approximate the maximum and minimum points on the graph in the interval \([0,2 \pi),\) and (b) solve the trigonometric equation and demonstrate that its solutions are the \(x\) -coordinates of the maximum and minimum points of \(f .\) (Calculus is required to find the trigonometric equation.) Function $$f(x)=\sin x+\cos x$$ Trigonometric Equation $$\cos x-\sin x=0$$
