tan((11pi)/6)+cos((5pi)/3)

Solution

tan (\frac{11 π}{6}) + cos (\frac{5 π}{3})

Solution

\frac{1}{2} - \frac{3}{3}

Decimal Notation

- 0.07735 \dots

Solution steps

tan (\frac{11 π}{6}) + cos (\frac{5 π}{3})

tan (\frac{11 π}{6}) = tan (\frac{5 π}{6})

tan (\frac{11 π}{6})

Rewrite

\frac{11 π}{6}

π + \frac{5 π}{6}

= tan (π + \frac{5 π}{6})

Apply the periodicity of

tan

tan (x + π) = tan (x)

tan (π + \frac{5 π}{6}) = tan (\frac{5 π}{6})

= tan (\frac{5 π}{6})

= tan (\frac{5 π}{6}) + cos (\frac{5 π}{3})

Rewrite using trig identities:

cos (\frac{5 π}{3}) = 1 - 2 sin^{2} (\frac{5 π}{6})

cos (\frac{5 π}{3})

Write

cos (\frac{5 π}{3})

cos (2 \cdot \frac{5 π}{6})

= cos (2 \cdot \frac{5 π}{6})

Use the Double Angle identity:

cos (2 x) = 1 - 2 sin^{2} (x)

= 1 - 2 sin^{2} (\frac{5 π}{6})

= tan (\frac{5 π}{6}) + 1 - 2 sin^{2} (\frac{5 π}{6})

Rewrite using trig identities:

tan (\frac{5 π}{6}) = - \frac{3}{3}

tan (\frac{5 π}{6})

Rewrite using trig identities:

\frac{sin ( \frac{5 π}{6} )}{cos ( \frac{5 π}{6} )}

tan (\frac{5 π}{6})

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

tan (x) = \frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )}

= \frac{sin ( \frac{5 π}{6} )}{cos ( \frac{5 π}{6} )}

= \frac{sin ( \frac{5 π}{6} )}{cos ( \frac{5 π}{6} )}

Use the following trivial identity:

sin (\frac{5 π}{6}) = \frac{1}{2}

sin (\frac{5 π}{6})

= - \frac{3}{2}

= \frac{\frac{1}{2}}{- \frac{3}{2}}

Simplify

\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{- \frac{3}{2}} : - \frac{3}{3}

\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{- \frac{3}{2}}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{a}{- b} = - \frac{a}{b}

= - \frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{2}}

Divide fractions:

\frac{\frac{a}{b}}{\frac{c}{d}} = \frac{a \cdot d}{b \cdot c}

= - \frac{1 \cdot 2}{2 3}

Refine

= - \frac{2}{2 3}

Cancel the common factor:

2

= - \frac{1}{3}

Rationalize

- \frac{1}{3} : - \frac{3}{3}

- \frac{1}{3}

Multiply by the conjugate

\frac{3}{3}

= - \frac{1 \cdot 3}{3 3}

1 \cdot 3 = 3

33 = 3

Apply radical rule:

a a = a

33 = 3

= \frac{1}{2}

= - \frac{3}{3} + 1 - 2 (\frac{1}{2})^{2}

Simplify

- \frac{3}{3} + 1 - 2 (\frac{1}{2})^{2} : \frac{1}{2} - \frac{3}{3}

- \frac{3}{3} + 1 - 2 (\frac{1}{2})^{2}

2 (\frac{1}{2})^{2} = \frac{1}{2}

2 (\frac{1}{2})^{2}

(\frac{1}{2})^{2} = \frac{1}{2 ^{2}}

(\frac{1}{2})^{2}

Apply exponent rule:

(\frac{a}{b})^{c} = \frac{a ^{c}}{b ^{c}}

= \frac{1 ^{2}}{2 ^{2}}

Apply rule

1^{a} = 1

1^{2} = 1

= \frac{1}{2 ^{2}}

= 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2 ^{2}}

Multiply fractions:

a \cdot \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \cdot b}{c}

= \frac{1 \cdot 2}{2 ^{2}}

Multiply the numbers:

1 \cdot 2 = 2

= \frac{2}{2 ^{2}}

Cancel the common factor:

= \frac{1}{2}

= - \frac{3}{3} + 1 - \frac{1}{2}

Group like terms

Combine the fractions

1 - \frac{1}{2} : \frac{1}{2}

1 - \frac{1}{2}

Convert element to fraction:

1 = \frac{1 \cdot 2}{2}

= \frac{1 \cdot 2}{2} - \frac{1}{2}

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

\frac{a}{c} \pm \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \pm b}{c}

= \frac{1 \cdot 2 - 1}{2}

1 \cdot 2 - 1 = 1

1 \cdot 2 - 1

Multiply the numbers:

1 \cdot 2 = 2

= 2 - 1

Subtract the numbers:

2 - 1 = 1

= 1

= \frac{1}{2}

= \frac{1}{2} - \frac{3}{3}

= \frac{1}{2} - \frac{3}{3}
