cos(arctan(4/3)+arccos(12/13))

Solution

cos (arctan (\frac{4}{3}) + arccos (\frac{12}{13}))

Solution

\frac{16}{65}

Decimal Notation

0.24615 \dots

Solution steps

cos (arctan (\frac{4}{3}) + arccos (\frac{12}{13}))

Rewrite using trig identities:

cos (arctan (\frac{4}{3})) cos (arccos (\frac{12}{13})) - sin (arctan (\frac{4}{3})) sin (arccos (\frac{12}{13}))

cos (arctan (\frac{4}{3}) + arccos (\frac{12}{13}))

Use the Angle Sum identity:

cos (s + t) = cos (s) cos (t) - sin (s) sin (t)

= cos (arctan (\frac{4}{3})) cos (arccos (\frac{12}{13})) - sin (arctan (\frac{4}{3})) sin (arccos (\frac{12}{13}))

= cos (arctan (\frac{4}{3})) cos (arccos (\frac{12}{13})) - sin (arctan (\frac{4}{3})) sin (arccos (\frac{12}{13}))

Rewrite using trig identities:

cos (arctan (\frac{4}{3})) = \frac{3}{5}

cos (arctan (\frac{4}{3}))

Rewrite using trig identities:

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

Use the following identity:

cos (arctan (x)) = \frac{1 + x ^{2}}{1 + x ^{2}}

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

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

Simplify

= \frac{3}{5}

Rewrite using trig identities:

cos (arccos (\frac{12}{13})) = \frac{12}{13}

Use the following identity:

cos (arccos (x)) = x

= \frac{12}{13}

Rewrite using trig identities:

sin (arctan (\frac{4}{3})) = \frac{4}{5}

sin (arctan (\frac{4}{3}))

Rewrite using trig identities:

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

Use the following identity:

sin (arctan (x)) = \frac{x 1 + x ^{2}}{1 + x ^{2}}

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

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

Simplify

= \frac{4}{5}

Rewrite using trig identities:

sin (arccos (\frac{12}{13})) = \frac{5}{13}

sin (arccos (\frac{12}{13}))

Rewrite using trig identities:

sin (arccos (\frac{12}{13})) = 1 - (\frac{12}{13})^{2}

Use the following identity:

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

= 1 - (\frac{12}{13})^{2}

= 1 - (\frac{12}{13})^{2}

Simplify

= \frac{5}{13}

= \frac{3}{5} \cdot \frac{12}{13} - \frac{4}{5} \cdot \frac{5}{13}

Simplify

\frac{3}{5} \cdot \frac{12}{13} - \frac{4}{5} \cdot \frac{5}{13} : \frac{16}{65}

\frac{3}{5} \cdot \frac{12}{13} - \frac{4}{5} \cdot \frac{5}{13}

\frac{3}{5} \cdot \frac{12}{13} = \frac{36}{65}

\frac{3}{5} \cdot \frac{12}{13}

Multiply fractions:

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

= \frac{3 \cdot 12}{5 \cdot 13}

Multiply the numbers:

3 \cdot 12 = 36

= \frac{36}{5 \cdot 13}

Multiply the numbers:

5 \cdot 13 = 65

= \frac{36}{65}

\frac{4}{5} \cdot \frac{5}{13} = \frac{4}{13}

\frac{4}{5} \cdot \frac{5}{13}

Cross-cancel:

5

= \frac{4}{13}

= \frac{36}{65} - \frac{4}{13}

Least Common Multiplier (LCM)

Prime factorization of

65 : 5 \cdot 13

65

65

divides by

565 = 13 \cdot 5

= 5 \cdot 13

5, 13

are all prime numbers, therefore no further factorization is possible

= 5 \cdot 13

Prime factorization of

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{4}{13} :

multiply the denominator and numerator by

5

\frac{4}{13} = \frac{4 \cdot 5}{13 \cdot 5} = \frac{20}{65}

= \frac{36}{65} - \frac{20}{65}

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

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

= \frac{36 - 20}{65}

Subtract the numbers:

36 - 20 = 16

= \frac{16}{65}

= \frac{16}{65}
