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`

A metal wire of  36 cm length is bent to form a rectangle. Find its dimensions when its area is maximum.


A metal wire of 36 cm long is bent to form a rectangle. By completing the following activity, find it’s dimensions when it’s area is maximum.

Solution: Let the dimensions of the rectangle be x cm and y cm.

∴ 2x + 2y = 36

Let f(x) be the area of rectangle in terms of x, then

f(x) = `square`

∴ f'(x) = `square`

∴ f''(x) = `square`

For extreme value, f'(x) = 0, we get

x = `square`

∴ f''`(square)` = – 2 < 0

∴ Area is maximum when x = `square`, y = `square`

∴ Dimensions of rectangle are `square`


By completing the following activity, examine the function f(x) = x3 – 9x2 + 24x for maxima and minima

Solution: f(x) = x3 – 9x2 + 24x

∴ f'(x) = `square`

∴ f''(x) = `square`

For extreme values, f'(x) = 0, we get

x = `square` or `square`

∴ f''`(square)` = – 6 < 0

∴ f(x) is maximum at x = 2.

∴ Maximum value = `square`

∴ f''`(square)` = 6 > 0

∴ f(x) is maximum at x = 4.

∴ Minimum value = `square`
