Evaluate exactly and simplify the following. Write your answer as a reduced improper fraction if needed. Use squareroot () for Squareroot () if needed. sin(2tan^-1(13/10)).
Solution
sin(2tan-1(13/10))
Let tan-1(13/10)=x therefore tan x=13/10
here opposite=13 and adjacent=10
Hence hypotenuse=sqrt(132+102) = sqrt269
sinx=opposite/hypotenuse= 13/sqrt269
cos x= adjacent/hypotenuse=10/sqrt269
sin(2x)=2sinx cos x=2(13/sqrt269)(10/sqrt269)=260/269
