Question
Find the approximate value of cos (89°, 30'). [Given is: 1° = 0.0175°C]
Advertisements
Solution
Let f(x) = cos x
f '(x) = - sin x
`x=89^@ 30'=(89(1/2))^@=pi/2-1^@/2=a+h`
`here a=pi/2 `
`and h=-1^@/2=-0.0175/2=-0.00875`
`f(a)=f(pi/2)=cos(pi/2)=0`
`f'(a)=f'(pi/2)=-sin(pi/2)=-1`
`f(a+h)~~f(a)+hf'(a)`
`cos(89^@30')~~0+(– 0.00875) (–1)`
`~~0.00875`

Complete the following activity to divide 84 into two parts such that the product of one part and square of the other is maximum.
Solution: Let one part be x. Then the other part is 84 - x
Letf (x) = x2 (84 - x) = 84x2 - x3
∴ f'(x) = `square`
and f''(x) = `square`
For extreme values, f'(x) = 0
∴ x = `square "or" square`
f(x) attains maximum at x = `square`
Hence, the two parts of 84 are 56 and 28.
