Write the function in terms of the sine function by using the identity $$A \cos \omega t+B \sin \omega t=\sqrt{A^{2}+B^{2}} \sin \left(\omega t+\arctan \frac{A}{B}\right).$$ Use a graphing utility to graph both forms of the function. What does the graph imply? $$f(t)=4 \cos \pi t+3 \sin \pi t$$
Prove each identity. (a) \(\arcsin (-x)=-\arcsin x\) (b) \(\arctan (-x)=-\arctan x\) (c) \(\arctan x+\arctan \frac{1}{x}=\frac{\pi}{2}, \quad x>0\) (d) \(\arcsin x+\arccos x=\frac{\pi}{2}\) (e) \(\arcsin x=\arctan \frac{x}{\sqrt{1-x^{2}}}\)
Data Analysis The table shows the average sales \(S\) (in millions of dollars) of an outerwear manufacturer for each month \(t,\) where \(t=1\) represents January. $$\begin{array}{|l|c|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline \text { Time, } t & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 \\ \hline \text { Sales, } S & 13.46 & 11.15 & 8.00 & 4.85 & 2.54 & 1.70 \\\ \hline \end{array}$$ $$\begin{array}{|l|c|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline \text { Time, } t & 7 & 8 & 9 & 10 & 11 & 12 \\ \hline \text { Sales, } S & 2.54 & 4.85 & 8.00 & 11.15 & 13.46 & 14.30 \\ \hline \end{array}$$ (a) Create a scatter plot of the data. (b) Find a trigonometric model that fits the data. Graph the model with your scatter plot. How well does the model fit the data? (c) What is the period of the model? Do you think it is reasonable given the context? Explain your reasoning. (d) Interpret the meaning of the model's amplitude in the context of the problem.
Complete the equation. $$\arccos \frac{3}{\sqrt{x^{2}-2 x+10}}=\arcsin (\text{_____})$$
Use a graphing utility to graph the function. $$f(x)=\pi \arcsin (4 x)$$
