Conjecture
what conjecture could be made and proven from the following? sin(3x)/sin(x) - cos(3x)/cos(x) I put it on my calculator and based on the graph I say that as it crosses the y axis the values get larger.

Difficult Trig Word Problem
sorry y(t) =4e(then the exponent -3t) all times sin(2pi*t)

Difficult Trig Word Problem
The displacement of a spring vibrating in damped harmonic motion is given by y(t) = 4e^-3t sin(2pi*t) where y = displacement and t = time with t greater than/equal to zero. Find the time(s) when the spring is at its equilibrium position (y=0). The number "e" is Euler...

Precalculus 2
Similiarly to a question I asked previously I took the same approach. the problem is: what value(s) of theta solve the following equation? cos(theta)sin(theta) - 2 cos(theta) = 0? I let Cos theta = X and sin theta = X unfortunately I end up with something completely odd. Can a...

Triangles
solve any triangles satisfying alpha = 20 degrees b = 10 c = 16 b and c are 2 side values and if I use the pythagorean theorem and I get 18.18? Did I do this right?

Trigonometry
What value(s) of theta solve the following equation? cos^2(theta)-cos(theta)-6=0? I try plugging in different numbers but I am not sure exactly what I am looking for in order to solve?

Precalculus
Sorry but I meant to say LS = cos^2x-sin^2y

Precalculus
Prove or disprove cos(x+y)cos(x-y)=cos squared (x) - Sin squared (x) I dstributed the cosines and attempted to cancel out terms but I can't get the signs right. Any help on what I am missing?

Physics
A certain light truck can go around a flat curve having a radius of 150 m with a maximum speed of 29.0 m/s. With what maximum speed can it go around a curve having a radius of 88.0 m?

Physics
An air puck of mass 0.23 kg is tied to a string and allowed to revolve in a circle of radius 1.0 m on a frictionless horizontal table. The other end of the string passes through a hole in the center of the table, and a mass of 0.9 kg is tied to it. The suspended mass remains i...
