Trigonometry

Score 8 or more out of 11 to pass.

In answers write fractions as A/B rather than decimals. E.g. for 0.25 write 1/4.

Section A: State cos of the following numbers.



Question 2. ~7\pi/6~

Question 3. ~7\pi/4~


Section B: Work out the values before looking at choices, plugging in each choice and seeing if it works tests nothing!


Question 5. Find all values of x in the range 0\le~x\le~\pi/2 for which \sin~~(4x-\pi/3)=1/2~

Question 6. Find all values of x in the range 0\le~x\le~2\pi for which 2{\cos}^2~x=\cos~x~+1~

Question 7. Find all values of x in the range 0\le~x\le~2\pi for which \cos^4~x-\sin^4~x=1

Section C:


Question 8. Express [latex]2\sin x + 2\cos x[/latex] in the form [latex]R\cos(x-\alpha)[/latex], where R>0 and [latex]0\le \alpha\le \pi/2[/latex]
8a R is equal to:

8b \alpha=

Question 9. Using question 8, or otherwise, find the maximum
value of 2\sin~x+2\cos~x
