Find the exact value of each expression. Do not use a calculator. $$\sin \left(\cos ^{-1} \frac{1}{2}+\sin ^{-1} \frac{3}{5}\right)$$
Will help you prepare for the material covered in the next section. $$\text { Solve: } u^{2}-u-1=0$$
Describe a natural periodic phenomenon. Give an example of a question that can be answered by a trigonometric equation in the study of this phenomenon.
Use this information to solve. When throwing an object, the distance achieved depends on its initial velocity, \(v_{0}\) and the angle above the horizontal at which the object is thrown, \(\theta\) The distance, \(d\), in feet, that describes the range covered is given by $$d=\frac{v_{0}^{2}}{16} \sin \theta \cos \theta$$ where \(v_{0}\) is measured in feet per second. You and your friend are throwing a baseball back and forth. If you throw the ball with an initial velocity of \(v_{0}=90\) feet per second, at what angle of elevation, \(\theta,\) to the nearest degree, should you direct your throw so that it can be easily caught by your friend located 170 feet away?
Determine whether each statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning. In order to simplify \(\frac{\cos x}{1-\sin x}-\frac{\sin x}{\cos x},\) I need to know how to subtract rational expressions with unlike denominators.
