2 (cos (3 0^{\circ}))^{2} + 3 (sin (3 0^{\circ}))^{2}

Solution

\frac{9}{4}

Decimal Notation

2.25

Solution steps

2 (cos (3 0^{\circ}))^{2} + 3 (sin (3 0^{\circ}))^{2}

= 2 cos^{2} (3 0^{\circ}) + 3 sin^{2} (3 0^{\circ})

Use the following trivial identity:

cos (3 0^{\circ}) = \frac{3}{2}

cos (3 0^{\circ})

= \frac{3}{2}

Use the following trivial identity:

sin (3 0^{\circ}) = \frac{1}{2}

x 0 3 0^{\circ} 4 5^{\circ} 6 0^{\circ} 9 0^{\circ} 12 0^{\circ} 13 5^{\circ} 15 0^{\circ} sin (x) 0 \frac{1}{2} \frac{2}{2} \frac{3}{2} 1 \frac{3}{2} \frac{2}{2} \frac{1}{2} x 18 0^{\circ} 21 0^{\circ} 22 5^{\circ} 24 0^{\circ} 27 0^{\circ} 30 0^{\circ} 31 5^{\circ} 33 0^{\circ} sin (x) 0 - \frac{1}{2} - \frac{2}{2} - \frac{3}{2} - 1 - \frac{3}{2} - \frac{2}{2} - \frac{1}{2}

= \frac{1}{2}

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

Simplify

2 (\frac{3}{2})^{2} + 3 (\frac{1}{2})^{2} : \frac{9}{4}

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

2 (\frac{3}{2})^{2} = \frac{3}{2}

2 (\frac{3}{2})^{2}

(\frac{3}{2})^{2} = \frac{3}{2 ^{2}}

(\frac{3}{2})^{2}

Apply exponent rule:

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

= \frac{( 3 ) ^{2}}{2 ^{2}}

(3)^{2} : 3

Apply radical rule:

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

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

Apply exponent rule:

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

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

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

\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2

Multiply fractions:

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

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

Cancel the common factor:

2

= 1

= 3

= \frac{3}{2 ^{2}}

= 2 \cdot \frac{3}{2 ^{2}}

Multiply fractions:

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

= \frac{3 \cdot 2}{2 ^{2}}

Multiply the numbers:

3 \cdot 2 = 6

= \frac{6}{2 ^{2}}

Factor

6 : 2 \cdot 3

Factor

6 = 2 \cdot 3

= \frac{2 \cdot 3}{2 ^{2}}

Cancel the common factor:

2

= \frac{3}{2}

3 (\frac{1}{2})^{2} = \frac{3}{4}

3 (\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}}

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

Multiply fractions:

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

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

Multiply the numbers:

1 \cdot 3 = 3

= \frac{3}{2 ^{2}}

2^{2} = 4

= \frac{3}{4}

= \frac{3}{2} + \frac{3}{4}

Adjust Fractions based on the LCM

Multiply each numerator by the same amount needed to multiply its

corresponding denominator to turn it into the LCM

For

\frac{3}{2} :

multiply the denominator and numerator by

2

\frac{3}{2} = \frac{3 \cdot 2}{2 \cdot 2} = \frac{6}{4}

= \frac{6}{4} + \frac{3}{4}

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

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

= \frac{6 + 3}{4}

Add the numbers:

6 + 3 = 9

= \frac{9}{4}

= \frac{9}{4}
