Refer to the figure, in which a unit circle is drawn. The line segment DB is tangent to the circle and θ is acute.

(a) Express the area of ∆OBCin terms of sinθ and cosθ.
(b) Express the area of ∆OBDin terms of sinθ and cosθ.

(c) The area of the sector OBCÁåœof the circle is 12θ, where θis measured in radians. Use the results of parts (a) and (b) and the fact that

Area of ∆OBC<Area of OBCÁåœ<Area of ∆OBDto show that,

1<θsinθ<1cosθ

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The area of ∆OBCis sinθ2

(b) The area of ∆OBDis sinθ2cosθ

(c) The area of the sectorOBCÁåœ is 12θ

Step by step solution

01

Part (a) Step 1. Given Information

The line segment DB is tangent to the circle

θ is acute.

02

Part (a) Step 2. Consider the figure

Consider the figure:

Radius, OB=OC=1

∠COB=θ

The line segment DB is tangent to B

∠OBD=90°

03

Part (a) Step 3. Consider ∆OBC

Area of ∆OBC

∆OBC=12(OB)(OC)sin(∠COB)=12(1)(1)sinθ=sinθ2

04

Part (b) Step 1. Find the area ∆OBD

Area of tanθ=DBOBDB=tanθ(sinceOB=1)

Area of ∆OBD=12bh

=12×DB×OB=12×tanθ×1=sinθ2cosθ

05

Part (c) Step 1. Find area of OBC⏜

Areaof∆OBC<AreaofOBCÁåœ<Areaof∆OBD

sinθ2<θ2<sinθ2cosθsinθ<θ<sinθcosθ1<θsinθ<1cosθ

Hence the required result.

When a mass hanging from a spring is pulled down and then released, the motion is called __________ . if there is no frictional force to retard the motion, and the motion is called ______ if there is friction.

Venus The distance from the Sun to Earth is approximately 149,600,000 km. The distance from the Sun to Venus is approximately 108,200,000 km. The elongation angleα is the angle formed between the line of sight from Earth to the Sun and the line of sight from Earth to Venus. Suppose that the elongation angle for Venus is 10°. Use this information

to find the possible distances between Earth and Venus.

Determining the Height of an Aircraft Two sensors are spaced 700 feet apart along the approach to a small airport. When an aircraft is nearing the airport, the angle of elevation from the first sensor to the aircraft is 20°, and from the second sensor to the aircraft it is 15°. Determine how high the aircraft is at this time.
