Compute $\begin{pmatrix} -4 \\ -1 \end{pmatrix} \cdot \begin{pmatrix} 6 \\ 8 \end{pmatrix}$.

We see that
\[\begin{pmatrix} -4 \\ -1 \end{pmatrix} \cdot \begin{pmatrix} 6 \\ 8 \end{pmatrix} = (-4) \cdot 6 + (-1) \cdot 8 = \boxed{-32}.\]

Let $\mathbf{a} = \begin{pmatrix} 2 \\ 1 \\ 5 \end{pmatrix}.$ Find the vector $\mathbf{b}$ such that $\mathbf{a} \cdot \mathbf{b} = 11$ and
\[\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{b} = \begin{pmatrix} -13 \\ -9 \\ 7 \end{pmatrix}.\]
|
gpt
|
Let $\mathbf{b} = \begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \\ z \end{pmatrix}.$ Then the equation $\mathbf{a} \cdot \mathbf{b} = 11$ gives us $2x + y + 5z = 11.$ Also,
\[\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{b} = \begin{pmatrix} 2 \\ 1 \\ 5 \end{pmatrix} \times \begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \\ z \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} -5y + z \\ 5x - 2z \\ -x + 2y \end{pmatrix}.\]Comparing entries, we obtain
\begin{align*}
-5y + z &= -13, \\
5x - 2z &= -9, \\
-x + 2y &= 7.
\end{align*}Solving this system, along with the equation $2x + y + z = 5z = 11,$ we find $x = -1,$ $y = 3,$ and $z = 2.$ Hence, $\mathbf{b} = \boxed{\begin{pmatrix} -1 \\ 3 \\ 2 \end{pmatrix}}.$

Joel selected an acute angle $x$ (strictly between 0 and 90 degrees) and wrote the values of $\sin x$, $\cos x$, and $\tan x$ on three different cards. Then he gave those cards to three students, Malvina, Paulina, and Georgina, one card to each, and asked them to figure out which trigonometric function (sin, cos, or tan) produced their cards. Even after sharing the values on their cards with each other, only Malvina was able to surely identify which function produced the value on her card. Compute the sum of all possible values that Joel wrote on Malvina's card.
|
gpt
|
The functions $\sin x,$ $\cos x,$ $\tan x$ are one-to-one on the interval $(0^\circ,90^\circ).$ Since Malvina could deduce her function, the value of $x$ can also be deduced. In particular, $\sin x,$ $\cos x,$ and $\tan x$ are all known. Since they cannot deduce Paulina's function and Georgina's function, their values must be equal.
If $\sin x = \cos x,$ then $\tan x = 1,$ so $x = 45^\circ.$ Then Malvina's value is 1.
If $\sin x = \tan x = \frac{\sin x}{\cos x},$ then $\cos x = 1.$ But $\cos x$ cannot achieve 1 on the interval $(0^\circ,90^\circ).$
If $\cos x = \tan x = \frac{\sin x}{\cos x},$ then $\sin x = \cos^2 x = 1 - \sin^2 x.$ Then
\[\sin^2 x + \sin x - 1 = 0.\]By the quadratic formula,
\[\sin x = \frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{5}}{2}.\]Since $-1 \le \sin x \le 1,$
\[\sin x = \frac{-1 + \sqrt{5}}{2}.\]This is the case where $\cos x = \tan x,$ so Malvina's value is $\sin x = \frac{-1 + \sqrt{5}}{2}.$
Therefore, the sum of the possible numbers on Malvina's card is
\[1 + \frac{-1 + \sqrt{5}}{2} = \boxed{\frac{1 + \sqrt{5}}{2}}.\]

The set of points $(x,y,z)$ that are equidistant to $(1,2,-5)$ and point $P$ satisfy an equation of the form
\[10x - 4y + 24z = 55.\]Find the point $P.$
|
gpt
|
Let $P = (a,b,c).$ If the point $(x,y,z)$ is equidistant to $(1,2,-5)$ and $(a,b,c),$ then
\[(x - 1)^2 + (y - 2)^2 + (z + 5)^2 = (x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 + (z - c)^2.\]Expanding, we get
\[x^2 - 2x + 1 + y^2 - 4y + 4 + z^2 + 10z + 25 = x^2 - 2ax + a^2 + y^2 - 2by + b^2 + z^2 - 2cz + c^2,\]which simplifies to
\[(2a - 2) x + (2b - 4) y + (2c + 10) z = a^2 + b^2 + c^2 - 30.\]We want this to coincide with the equation
\[10x - 4y + 24z = 55.\]If we set $2a - 2 = 10,$ $2b - 4 = -4,$ and $2c + 10 = 24,$ then $a = 6,$ $b = 0,$ and $c = 7.$ Note that $a^2 + b^2 + c^2 - 30 = 55,$ so these values work. Thus, $(a,b,c) = \boxed{(6,0,7)}.$

Convert the point $(0, -3 \sqrt{3}, 3)$ in rectangular coordinates to spherical coordinates. Enter your answer in the form $(\rho,\theta,\phi),$ where $\rho > 0,$ $0 \le \theta < 2 \pi,$ and $0 \le \phi \le \pi.$
|
gpt
|
We have that $\rho = \sqrt{0^2 + (-3 \sqrt{3})^2 + 3^2} = 6.$ We want $\phi$ to satisfy
\[3 = 6 \cos \phi,\]so $\phi = \frac{\pi}{3}.$
We want $\theta$ to satisfy
\begin{align*}
0 &= 6 \sin \frac{\pi}{3} \cos \theta, \\
-3 \sqrt{3} &= 6 \sin \frac{\pi}{3} \sin \theta.
\end{align*}Thus, $\theta = \frac{3 \pi}{2},$ so the spherical coordinates are $\boxed{\left( 6, \frac{3 \pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{3} \right)}.$

The line $y = 2x + 7$ is to be parameterized using vectors. Which of the following options are valid parameterizations?
(A) $\begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 0 \\ 7 \end{pmatrix} + t \begin{pmatrix} 2 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix}$
(B) $\begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} -7/2 \\ 0 \end{pmatrix} + t \begin{pmatrix} -1 \\ -2 \end{pmatrix}$

(D) $\begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 2 \\ -1 \end{pmatrix} + t \begin{pmatrix} 1/2 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix}$
(E) $\begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} -7 \\ -7 \end{pmatrix} + t \begin{pmatrix} 1/10 \\ 1/5 \end{pmatrix}$
Enter the letters of the correct options, separated by commas.
|
gpt
|
Note that $\begin{pmatrix} 0 \\ 7 \end{pmatrix}$ and $\begin{pmatrix} 1 \\ 9 \end{pmatrix}$ are two points on this line, so a possible direction vector is
\[\begin{pmatrix} 1 \\ 9 \end{pmatrix} - \begin{pmatrix} 0 \\ 7 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 1 \\ 2 \end{pmatrix}.\]Then any nonzero scalar multiple of $\begin{pmatrix} 1 \\ 2 \end{pmatrix}$ can also be a direction vector.
The form
\[\begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \end{pmatrix} = \mathbf{v} + t \mathbf{d}\]parameterizes a line if and only if $\mathbf{v}$ lies on the line, and $\mathbf{d}$ is a possible direction vector for the line. Checking, we find that the possible parameterizations are $\boxed{\text{B,E}}.$

Find the range of
\[f(A)=\frac{\sin A(3\cos^{2}A+\cos^{4}A+3\sin^{2}A+\sin^{2}A\cos^{2}A)}{\tan A (\sec A-\sin A\tan A)}\]if $A\neq \dfrac{n\pi}{2}$ for any integer $n.$ Enter your answer using interval notation.
|
gpt
|
We can factor the numerator, and write the denominator in terms of $\sin A$ and $\cos A,$ to get
\begin{align*}
f(A) &= \frac{\sin A (3 \cos^2 A + \cos^4 A + 3 \sin^2 A + \sin^2 A \cos^2 A)}{\tan A (\sec A - \sin A \tan A)} \\
&= \frac{\sin A (\sin^2 A + \cos^2 A)(\cos^2 A + 3)}{\frac{\sin A}{\cos A} (\frac{1}{\cos A} - \frac{\sin^2 A}{\cos A})} \\
&= \frac{\sin A (\cos^2 A + 3)}{\frac{\sin A}{\cos A} \cdot \frac{1 - \sin^2 A}{\cos A}} \\
&= \frac{\sin A (\cos^2 A + 3)}{\frac{\sin A}{\cos A} \cdot \frac{\cos^2 A}{\cos A}} \\
&= \cos^2 A + 3.
\end{align*}The range of $\cos^2 A$ is $(0,1).$ (Note that 0 and 1 are not included, since $A$ cannot be an integer multiple of $\frac{\pi}{2}.$) Hence, the range of $f(A) = \cos^2 A + 3$ is $\boxed{(3,4)}.$

Three of the vertices of parallelogram $ABCD$ are $A = (3,-1,2),$ $B = (1,2,-4),$ and $C = (-1,1,2).$ Find the coordinates of $D.$

If $\tan x+\tan y=25$ and $\cot x + \cot y=30$, what is $\tan(x+y)$?
|
gpt
|
The second equation is equivalent to $\frac1{\tan x} + \frac1{\tan y} = 30,$ or $\frac{\tan x + \tan y}{\tan x \tan y} = 30.$ Thus, $\frac{25}{\tan x \tan y} = 30,$ so $\tan x \tan y = \frac{25}{30} = \frac{5}{6}.$ Then from the angle addition formula,
\[\tan(x+y) = \frac{\tan x+ \tan y}{1 - \tan x \tan y} = \frac{25}{1 - \frac{5}{6}} = \boxed{150}.\]

Solve $\arcsin x + \arcsin (1 - x) = \arccos x.$
|
gpt
|
Taking the sine of both sides, we get
\[\sin (\arcsin x + \arcsin (1 - x)) = \sin (\arccos x).\]Then from the angle addition formula,
\[\sin (\arcsin x) \cos (\arcsin (1 - x)) + \cos (\arcsin x) \sin (\arcsin (1 - x)) = \sin (\arccos x),\]or
\[x \sqrt{1 - (1 - x)^2} + \sqrt{1 - x^2} (1 - x) = \sqrt{1 - x^2}.\]Then
\[x \sqrt{1 - (1 - x)^2} = x \sqrt{1 - x^2}.\]Squaring both sides, we get
\[x^2 (1 - (1 - x)^2) = x^2 (1 - x^2).\]This simplifies to $2x^3 - x^2 = x^2 (2x - 1) = 0.$ Thus, $x = 0$ or $x = \frac{1}{2}.$
Checking, we find both solutions work, so the solutions are $\boxed{0, \frac{1}{2}}.$

&= \sin^2 \alpha + 2 + \frac{1}{\sin^2 \alpha} + \cos^2 \alpha + 2 + \frac{1}{\cos^2 \alpha} - \frac{\sin^2 \alpha}{\cos^2 \alpha} - \frac{\cos^2 \alpha}{\sin^2 \alpha} \\
&= 5 + \frac{1 - \sin^2 \alpha}{\cos^2 \alpha} + \frac{1 - \cos^2 \alpha}{\sin^2 \alpha} \\
&= 5 + \frac{\cos^2 \alpha}{\cos^2 \alpha} + \frac{\sin^2 \alpha}{\sin^2 \alpha} \\

Find the matrix $\mathbf{M}$ such that
\[\mathbf{M} \mathbf{v} = -5 \mathbf{v}\]for all vectors $\mathbf{v}.$
|
gpt

In general, $\mathbf{M} \begin{pmatrix} 1 \\ 0 \end{pmatrix}$ is the first column of $\mathbf{M}$, and $\mathbf{M} \begin{pmatrix} 0 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix}$ is the second column of $\mathbf{M}.$
Taking $\mathbf{v} = \begin{pmatrix} 1 \\ 0 \end{pmatrix},$ we get
\[-5 \begin{pmatrix} 1 \\ 0 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} -5 \\ 0 \end{pmatrix}.\]Taking $\mathbf{v} = \begin{pmatrix} 0 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix},$ we get
\[-5 \begin{pmatrix} 0 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 0 \\ -5 \end{pmatrix}.\]Therefore,
\[\mathbf{M} = \boxed{\begin{pmatrix} -5 & 0 \\ 0 & -5 \end{pmatrix}}.\]

For real numbers $a,$ $b,$ and $c,$ the matrix
\[\begin{pmatrix} a & b & c \\ b & c & a \\ c & a & b \end{pmatrix}\]is not invertible. List all possible values of
\[\frac{a}{b + c} + \frac{b}{a + c} + \frac{c}{a + b}.\]
|
gpt
|
Since the matrix is not invertible, its determinant is 0, i.e.
\[\begin{vmatrix} a & b & c \\ b & c & a \\ c & a & b \end{vmatrix} = 0.\]The determinant expands as
\begin{align*}
\begin{vmatrix} a & b & c \\ b & c & a \\ c & a & b \end{vmatrix} &= a \begin{vmatrix} c & a \\ a & b \end{vmatrix} - b \begin{vmatrix} b & a \\ c & b \end{vmatrix} + c \begin{vmatrix} b & c \\ c & a \end{vmatrix} \\
&= a(bc - a^2) - b(b^2 - ac) + c(ab - c^2) \\
&= 3abc - a^3 - b^3 - c^3.
\end{align*}This factors as
\[3abc - a^3 - b^3 - c^3 = -(a + b + c)(a^2 + b^2 + c^2 - ab - ac - bc),\]so either $a + b + c = 0$ or $a^2 + b^2 + c^2 - ab - ac - bc = 0.$
If $a + b + c = 0,$ then
\[\frac{a}{b + c} + \frac{b}{a + c} + \frac{c}{a + b} = \frac{a}{-a} + \frac{b}{-b} + \frac{c}{-c} = -3.\]Now, suppose $a^2 + b^2 + c^2 - ab - ac - bc = 0.$ Then
\begin{align*}
(a - b)^2 + (a - c)^2 + (b - c)^2 &= (a^2 - 2ab + b^2) + (a^2 - 2ac + c^2) + (b^2 - 2bc + c^2) \\
&= 2(a^2 + b^2 + c^2 - ab - ac - bc) \\
&= 0.
\end{align*}This forces $a = b = c,$ so
\[\frac{a}{b + c} + \frac{b}{a + c} + \frac{c}{a + b} = \frac{3}{2}.\]Thus, the possible values of
\[\frac{a}{b + c} + \frac{b}{a + c} + \frac{c}{a + b}\]are $\boxed{\frac{3}{2}}$ and $\boxed{-3}.$

A projectile is fired with an initial velocity of $v$ at an angle of $\theta$ from the ground. Then its trajectory can modeled by the parametric equations
\begin{align*}
x &= vt \cos \theta, \\
y &= vt \sin \theta - \frac{1}{2} gt^2,
\end{align*}where $t$ denotes time and $g$ denotes acceleration due to gravity, forming a parabolic arch.
Suppose $v$ is held constant, but $\theta$ is allowed to vary, over $0^\circ \le \theta \le 180^\circ.$ The highest point of each parabolic arch is plotted. (Several examples are shown below.) As $\theta$ varies, the highest points of the arches trace a closed curve. The area of this closed curve can be expressed in the form
\[c \cdot \frac{v^4}{g^2}.\]Find $c.$

For a given angle of $\theta,$ the projectile lands when $y = 0,$ or
\[vt \sin \theta - \frac{1}{2} gt^2 = 0.\]The solutions are $t = 0$ and $t = \frac{2v \sin \theta}{g}.$ The top of the arch occurs at the half-way point, or
\[t = \frac{v \sin \theta}{g}.\]Then the highest point of the arch is given by
\begin{align*}
x &= tv \cos \theta = \frac{v^2}{g} \sin \theta \cos \theta, \\
y &= vt \sin \theta - \frac{1}{2} gt^2 = \frac{v^2}{2g} \sin^2 \theta.
\end{align*}By the double-angle formulas,
\[x = \frac{v^2}{2g} \sin 2 \theta,\]and
\[y = \frac{v^2}{2g} \cdot \frac{1 - \cos 2 \theta}{2} = \frac{v^2}{4g} - \frac{v^2}{4g} \cos 2 \theta.\]Hence, $x$ and $y$ satisfy
\[\frac{x^2}{(\frac{v^2}{2g})^2} + \frac{(y - \frac{v^2}{4g})^2}{(\frac{v^2}{4g})^2} = 1.\]Thus, the highest point of the arch traces an ellipse, with semi-axes $\frac{v^2}{2g}$ and $\frac{v^2}{4g}.$

Let $a$ and $b$ be real numbers. If $a \ge b,$ then

\[|a + b| + |a - b| = (a + b) + (b - a) = 2b.\]In either case, $|a + b| + |a - b| = 2 \max\{a,b\}.$
Thus, the condition $|x + y + z| + |x + y - z| \le 8$ is equivalent to
\[2 \max \{x + y, z\} \le 8,\]or $\max \{x + y, z\} \le 4.$ This is the intersection of the conditions $x + y \le 4$ and $z \le 4,$ so the region is as below.

To find a unit vector that is orthogonal to both $\begin{pmatrix} 1 \\ 1 \\ 0 \end{pmatrix}$ and $\begin{pmatrix} 1 \\ 0 \\ 2 \end{pmatrix},$ we take their cross product:

\[\operatorname{proj}_{\mathbf{w}} \mathbf{v} = \frac{\mathbf{v} \cdot \mathbf{w}}{\|\mathbf{w}\|^2} \mathbf{w},\]so
\[\|\operatorname{proj}_{\mathbf{w}} \mathbf{v}\| = \left| \frac{\mathbf{v} \cdot \mathbf{w}}{\|\mathbf{w}\|^2} \right| \|\mathbf{w}\| = \frac{|\mathbf{v} \cdot \mathbf{w}|}{\|\mathbf{w}\|} = \boxed{\frac{3}{5}}.\]

How many solutions of the equation $\tan x = \tan (\tan x)$ are on the interval $0 \le x \le \tan^{-1} 942$? (Here $\tan^{-1}$ means the inverse tangent function, sometimes written $\arctan$.)
Note: You can assume the result that $\tan \theta > \theta$ for $0 < \theta < \frac{\pi}{2}.$

Two angles have the same tangent if and only if they differ by a multiple of $\pi.$ This means $\tan x - x$ is a multiple of $\pi.$ Let
\[T(x) = \tan x - x.\]First, we prove that the function $T(x)$ is strictly increasing on the interval $\left[ 0, \frac{\pi}{2} \right).$ Let $0 \le x < y < \frac{\pi}{2}.$ Then
\[y - x < \tan (y - x) = \frac{\tan y - \tan x}{1 + \tan x \tan y} \le \tan y - \tan x.\]Re-arranging, we get $\tan x - x < \tan y - y,$ or $T(x) < T(y).$
Note that as $x$ approaches $\frac{\pi}{2},$ $T(x)$ approaches infinity. This means for every nonnegative integer $n,$ there exists a unique value of $x$ such that $T(x) = n \pi.$
We have the estimate $300 \pi \approx 942.48.$ Hence,
\[T(\tan^{-1} 942) = 942 - \tan^{-1} 942 < 942 < 300 \pi.\]Also,
\[T(\tan^{-1} 924) = 942 - \tan^{-1} 942 > 942 - \frac{\pi}{2} > 299 \pi.\]Since $299 \pi < T(\tan^{-1} 942) < 300 \pi,$ the equation $T(x) = n \pi$ has a solution on the interval $[0, \tan^{-1} 942]$ if and only if $0 \le n < 300,$ so there are $\boxed{300}$ solutions.

A certain point has rectangular coordinates $(10,3)$ and polar coordinates $(r, \theta).$ What are the rectangular coordinates of the point with polar coordinates $(r^2, 2 \theta)$?
|
gpt
|
From the given information, $r \cos \theta = 10$ and $r \sin \theta = 3.$ Then for $(r^2, 2 \theta),$ the $x$-coordinate is
\begin{align*}
r^2 \cos 2 \theta &= r^2 (\cos^2 \theta - \sin^2 \theta) \\
&= r^2 \cos^2 \theta - r^2 \sin^2 \theta \\
&= 10^2 - 3^2 \\
&= 91,
\end{align*}and the $y$-coordinate is
\begin{align*}
r^2 \sin 2 \theta &= r^2 (2 \sin \theta \cos \theta) \\
&= 2(r \cos \theta)(r \sin \theta) \\
&= 2 \cdot 10 \cdot 3 \\
&= 60.
\end{align*}Thus, the rectangular coordinates are $\boxed{(91,60)}.$

The matrix
\[\begin{pmatrix} a & \frac{15}{34} \\ c & \frac{25}{34} \end{pmatrix}\]corresponds to a projection. Enter the ordered pair $(a,c).$

Suppose $\mathbf{P}$ is the matrix for projecting onto the vector $\mathbf{p}.$ Then for any vector $\mathbf{v},$ $\mathbf{P} \mathbf{v}$ is a scalar multiple of $\mathbf{p}.$ So when we apply the projection again to $\mathbf{P} \mathbf{v},$ the result is still $\mathbf{P} \mathbf{v}.$ This means
\[\mathbf{P} (\mathbf{P} \mathbf{v}) = \mathbf{P} \mathbf{v}.\]In other words, $\mathbf{P}^2 \mathbf{v} = \mathbf{P} \mathbf{v}.$ Since this holds for all vectors $\mathbf{v},$
\[\mathbf{P}^2 = \mathbf{P}.\]Here,
\[\mathbf{P}^2 = \begin{pmatrix} a & \frac{15}{34} \\ c & \frac{25}{34} \end{pmatrix} \begin{pmatrix} a & \frac{15}{34} \\ c & \frac{25}{34} \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} a^2 + \frac{15}{34} c & \frac{15}{34} a + \frac{375}{1156} \\ ac + \frac{25}{34} c & \frac{15}{34} c + \frac{625}{1156} \end{pmatrix}.\]Thus, $\frac{15}{34} a + \frac{375}{1156} = \frac{15}{34}$ and $\frac{15}{34} c + \frac{625}{1156} = \frac{25}{34}.$ Solving, we find $(a,c) = \boxed{\left( \frac{9}{34}, \frac{15}{34} \right)}.$

Find the integer $n,$ $-90 \le n \le 90,$ such that $\sin n^\circ = \sin 604^\circ.$
|
gpt
|
Since the sine function has period $360^\circ,$
\[\sin 604^\circ = \sin (604^\circ - 2 \cdot 360^\circ) = \sin (-116^\circ).\]Since sine is an odd function,
\[\sin (-116^\circ) = -\sin 116^\circ.\]Since $\sin x = \sin (180^\circ - x)$ for all angles $x,$
\[-\sin 116^\circ = \sin (180^\circ - 116^\circ) = -\sin 64^\circ.\]Then $-\sin 64^\circ = \sin (-64^\circ),$ so $n = \boxed{-64}.$

We have that
\[\begin{pmatrix} 2 & 0 \\ 1 & -3 \end{pmatrix}^{-1} = \frac{1}{(2)(-3) - (0)(1)} \begin{pmatrix} -3 & 0 \\ -1 & 2 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} \frac{1}{2} & 0 \\ \frac{1}{6} & -\frac{1}{3} \end{pmatrix}.\]Also,
\[a \mathbf{M} + b \mathbf{I} = a \begin{pmatrix} 2 & 0 \\ 1 & -3 \end{pmatrix} + b \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 2a + b & 0 \\ a & -3a + b \end{pmatrix}.\]Thus, $2a + b = \frac{1}{2},$ $a = \frac{1}{6},$ and $-3a + b = -\frac{1}{3}.$ Solving, we find $(a,b) = \boxed{\left( \frac{1}{6}, \frac{1}{6} \right)}.$

Let $z_0 = 5,$ and let $z_n$ be the position of the point after $n$ steps. Then
\[z_n = \omega z_{n - 1} + 10,\]where $\omega = \operatorname{cis} \frac{\pi}{4}.$ Then
\begin{align*}
z_1 &= 5 \omega + 10, \\
z_2 &= \omega (5 \omega + 10) = 5 \omega^2 + 10 \omega + 10, \\
z_3 &= \omega (5 \omega^2 + 10 \omega + 10) + 10 = 5 \omega^3 + 10 \omega^2 + 10 \omega + 10,
\end{align*}and so on. In general, we can prove by induction that
\[z_n = 5 \omega^n + 10 (\omega^{n - 1} + \omega^{n - 2} + \dots + 1).\]In particular,
\[z_{150} = 5 \omega^{150} + 10 (\omega^{149} + \omega^{148} + \dots + 1).\]Note that $\omega^4 = \operatorname{cis} \pi = -1$ and $\omega^8 = 1.$ Then by the formula for a geometric series,
\begin{align*}
z_{150} &= 5 \omega^{150} + 10 (\omega^{149} + \omega^{148} + \dots + 1) \\
&= 5 \omega^{150} + 10 \cdot \frac{1 - \omega^{150}}{1 - \omega} \\
&= 5 (\omega^8)^{18} \cdot \omega^6 + 10 \cdot \frac{1 - (\omega^8)^{18} \cdot \omega^6}{1 - \omega} \\
&= 5 \omega^6 + 10 \cdot \frac{1 - \omega^6}{1 - \omega} \\
&= 5 \omega^6 + 10 (\omega^5 + \omega^4 + \omega^3 + \omega^2 + \omega + 1) \\
&= -5 \omega^2 + 10 (-\omega - 1 + \omega^3 + \omega^2 + \omega + 1) \\
&= 10 \omega^3 + 5 \omega^2 \\
&= 10 \operatorname{cis} \frac{3 \pi}{4} + 5i \\
&= 10 \cos \frac{3 \pi}{4} + 10i \sin \frac{3 \pi}{4} + 5i \\
&= -5 \sqrt{2} + (5 + 5 \sqrt{2}) i.
\end{align*}Thus, the final point is $\boxed{(-5 \sqrt{2}, 5 + 5 \sqrt{2})}.$

Let $\mathbf{a}$ denote $\overrightarrow{A},$ etc. Then from the given information,
\begin{align*}
\mathbf{d} &= \frac{2}{3} \mathbf{b} + \frac{1}{3} \mathbf{c}, \\
\mathbf{e} &= \frac{1}{3} \mathbf{a} + \frac{2}{3} \mathbf{c}, \\
\mathbf{f} &= \frac{2}{3} \mathbf{a} + \frac{1}{3} \mathbf{b}.
\end{align*}From the first and third equations,
\[\mathbf{b} = \frac{3 \mathbf{d} - \mathbf{c}}{2} = 3 \mathbf{f} - 2 \mathbf{a}.\]Then $3 \mathbf{d} - \mathbf{c} = 6 \mathbf{f} - 4 \mathbf{a},$ or $3 \mathbf{d} + 4 \mathbf{a} = 6 \mathbf{f} + \mathbf{c},$ or
\[\frac{3}{7} \mathbf{d} + \frac{4}{7} \mathbf{a} = \frac{6}{7} \mathbf{f} + \frac{1}{7} \mathbf{c}.\]Since the coefficients on both sides of the equation add up to 1, the vector on the left side lies on line $AD,$ and the vector on the right side lies on line $CF.$ Therefore, this common vector is $\mathbf{p}.$ Furthermore, $\frac{AP}{PD} = \frac{3}{4}$ and $\frac{FP}{PC} = \frac{1}{6}.$
Similarly, we can show that
\[\frac{BQ}{QE} = \frac{CR}{RF} = \frac{3}{4} \quad \text{and} \quad \frac{DQ}{QA} = \frac{ER}{RB} = \frac{1}{6}.\]In other words, $AP:PQ:QD = BQ:QR:RE = CR:RP:PF = 3:3:1.$
Remember that for triangles that share the same height, the ratio of their areas is equal to the ratio of their bases. Hence,
\[\frac{[ACD]}{[ABC]} = \frac{CD}{BC} = \frac{2}{3}.\]Then
\[\frac{[PCD]}{[ACD]} = \frac{PD}{AD} = \frac{4}{7}.\]Finally,
\begin{align*}
\frac{[PQR]}{[PCD]} &= \frac{\frac{1}{2} PQ \cdot PR \cdot \sin \angle RPQ}{\frac{1}{2} PD \cdot PC \cdot \sin \angle CPD} \\
&= \frac{PQ}{PD} \cdot \frac{PR}{PC} \\
&= \frac{3}{4} \cdot \frac{1}{2} = \frac{3}{8}.
\end{align*}Multiplying all these equations, we get
\[\frac{[ACD]}{[ABC]} \cdot \frac{[PCD]}{[ACD]} \cdot \frac{[PQR]}{[PCD]} = \frac{2}{3} \cdot \frac{4}{7} \cdot \frac{3}{8},\]which gives us
\[\frac{[PQR]}{[ABC]} = \boxed{\frac{1}{7}}.\]

\[\cos (\arctan x) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{x^2 + 1}},\]so
\[\frac{1}{\sqrt{x^2 + 1}} = x.\]Squaring both sides, we get
\[\frac{1}{x^2 + 1} = x^2,\]so $x^4 + x^2 - 1 = 0.$ By the quadratic formula,
\[x^2 = \frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{5}}{2}.\]Since $x^2$ is positive,
\[x^2 = \boxed{\frac{-1 + \sqrt{5}}{2}}.\]

As usual, we start by graphing these lines. An easy way to go about it is to plot some points. Let's plug in $t =0$ and $t = 1$ for line $l$, getting the points $(1, 4)$ and $(5, 7)$. Here's our line:
[asy]

Recall that when we project $\mathbf{v}$ onto $\mathbf{u}$, we place the tail of $\mathbf{v}$ onto a line with direction $\mathbf{u}$, then we drop a perpendicular and draw the vector from the tail of $\mathbf{v}$ to the foot of the perpendicular.
This picture actually doesn't look like our usual projection picture! The vector we're projecting and the projection aren't tail to tail, which makes things harder to visualize. Let's shift the vector over and see if it helps, choosing $Q$ such that
\[\overrightarrow{BQ} = \overrightarrow{PA}.\]Here's the picture:

That looks better! Our shifted vector $\overrightarrow{BQ}$ is tail to tail with the vector being projected. In fact, since this vector is perpendicular to lines $l$ and $m$, we know that it lies along a line with direction
\[\mathbf{u} = \begin{pmatrix} 3 \\-4 \end{pmatrix}.\]Here's the picture with the line added in:

If you want to make sure you're visualizing this correctly, imagine the picture above with lines $l$ and $m$ removed: it should become clear that
\[\overrightarrow{BQ} = \text{The projection of $\overrightarrow{BA}$ onto } \begin{pmatrix} 3 \\-4 \end{pmatrix}.\]Of course, since $\overrightarrow{PA}$ is equal to $\overrightarrow{BQ}$, we see that
\[\overrightarrow{PA} = \text{The projection of $\overrightarrow{BA}$ onto } \begin{pmatrix} 3 \\-4 \end{pmatrix}.\]Now, we need to be projecting onto a vector whose components add to $2$. We know that we're in fact projecting onto any non-zero scalar multiple of our vector, so we use
\[-2\mathbf{u} = \begin{pmatrix} -6 \\ 8 \end{pmatrix}\]instead. Therefore, $\overrightarrow{PA}$ is the projection of $\overrightarrow{BA}$ onto $\boxed{\begin{pmatrix}-6 \\ 8 \end{pmatrix}}.$

Define a coordinate system with $D$ at the origin and $C,$ $A,$ and $H$ on the $x$-, $y$-, and $z$-axes respectively. Then $D=(0,0,0),$ $M=\left(\frac{1}{2},1,0\right),$ and $N=\left(1,0,\frac{1}{2}\right).$ The plane going through $D,$ $M,$ and $N$ has equation
\[2x-y-4z=0.\]This plane intersects $\overline{BF}$ at $Q = \left(1,1,\frac{1}{4}\right).$ Let $P = (1,2,0).$ Since $2(1) - 1(2) - 4(0) = 0,$ $P$ is on the plane. Also, $P$ lies on the extensions of segments $\overline{DM},$ $\overline{NQ},$ and $\overline{CB}$.

We can then decompose pyramid $PCDN$ into pyramid $PBMQ$ and frustum $BMQCDN$. Pyramid $PCDN$ has base 1 and height $\frac{1}{2},$ so its volume is $[PCDN] = \frac{1}{6}.$ Note that pyramid $PBMQ$ is similar to pyramid $PCDN,$ with similarity $\frac{1}{2},$ so
\[[PBMQ] = \left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^3 \cdot \frac{1}{6} = \frac{1}{48}.\]Then
\[[BMQCDN] = \frac{1}{6} - \frac{1}{48} = \frac{7}{48},\]so the volume of the larger solid, cut by plane $DMQN,$ is $1 - \frac{7}{48} = \boxed{\frac{41}{48}}.$

The line $y = \frac{3x - 5}{4}$ is parameterized in the form
\[\begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \end{pmatrix} = \mathbf{v} + t \mathbf{d},\]so that for $x \ge 3,$ the distance between $\begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \end{pmatrix}$ and $\begin{pmatrix} 3 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix}$ is $t.$ Find $\mathbf{d}.$
|
gpt

Setting $t = 0,$ we get
\[\begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \end{pmatrix} = \mathbf{v}.\]But the distance between $\begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \end{pmatrix}$ and $\begin{pmatrix} 3 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix}$ is $t = 0,$ so $\mathbf{v} = \begin{pmatrix} 3 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix}.$ Thus,
\[\begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 3 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} + t \mathbf{d}.\]Then for $x \ge 3,$
\[\left\| \begin{pmatrix} x - 3 \\ y - 1 \end{pmatrix} \right\| = \left\| \begin{pmatrix} x - 3 \\ \frac{3x - 9}{4} \end{pmatrix} \right\| = \left\| \begin{pmatrix} 1 \\ \frac{3}{4} \end{pmatrix} \right\| (x - 3) = \frac{5}{4} (x - 3).\]We want this to be $t,$ so $t = \frac{5}{4} (x - 3).$ Then $x = \frac{4}{5} t + 3,$ and $y = \frac{3x - 5}{4} = \frac{3}{5} t + 1,$ so
\[\begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} \frac{4}{5} t + 3 \\ \frac{3}{5} t + 1 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 3 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} + t \begin{pmatrix} 4/5 \\ 3/5 \end{pmatrix}.\]Thus, $\mathbf{d} = \boxed{\begin{pmatrix} 4/5 \\ 3/5 \end{pmatrix}}.$

In polar coordinates, the point $\left( -2, \frac{3 \pi}{8} \right)$ is equivalent to what other point, in the standard polar coordinate representation? Enter your answer in the form $(r,\theta),$ where $r > 0$ and $0 \le \theta < 2 \pi.$

To obtain the point $\left( -2, \frac{3 \pi}{8} \right),$ we move counter-clockwise from the positive $x$-axis by an angle of $\frac{3 \pi}{8},$ then take the point with $r = -2$ at this angle. Since $-2$ is negative, we end up reflecting through the origin. Thus, we arrive at the point $\boxed{\left( 2, \frac{11 \pi}{8} \right)}.$

One angle of a triangle is twice another, and the sides opposite these angles have lengths 15 and 9. Compute the length of the third side of the triangle.
|
gpt
|
Without loss of generality, let the triangle be $ABC,$ where $AB = 9,$ $AC = 15,$ and $\angle B = 2 \angle C.$ Let $a = BC.$ Then by the Law of Cosines,
\[\cos C = \frac{a^2 + 15^2 - 9^2}{2 \cdot a \cdot 15} = \frac{a^2 + 144}{30a}.\]By the Law of Sines,
\[\frac{9}{\sin C} = \frac{15}{\sin B} = \frac{15}{\sin 2C} = \frac{15}{2 \sin C \cos C},\]so $\cos C = \frac{5}{6}.$ Hence,
\[\frac{a^2 + 144}{30a} = \frac{5}{6}.\]This gives us $a^2 + 144 = 25a,$ or $a^2 - 25a + 144 = 0.$ This factors as $(a - 9)(a - 16) = 0.$
If $a = 9,$ then $\angle A = \angle C,$ which implies $A + B + C = 4C = 180^\circ.$ Then $B = 2C = 90^\circ,$ contradiction, because a triangle with sides 9, 9, and 15 is not a right triangle. Therefore, $a = \boxed{16}.$

\[\cos ^2 x + \cos^2 (x + y) - 2 \cos x \cos y \cos (x + y).\]

First, we can write
\begin{align*}
&\cos^2 x + \cos^2 (x + y) - 2 \cos x \cos y \cos (x + y) \\
&= \cos^2 x + \cos (x + y) (\cos (x + y) - 2 \cos x \cos y).
\end{align*}From the angle addition formula, $\cos (x + y) = \cos x \cos y - \sin x \sin y,$ so
\begin{align*}
&\cos^2 x + \cos (x + y) (\cos (x + y) - 2 \cos x \cos y) \\
&= \cos^2 x + \cos (x + y) (-\cos x \cos y - \sin x \sin y).
\end{align*}From the angle subtraction formula, $\cos (x - y) = \cos x \cos y + \sin x \sin y,$ so
\begin{align*}
&\cos^2 x + \cos (x + y) (-\cos x \cos y - \sin x \sin y) \\
&= \cos^2 x - \cos (x + y) \cos (x - y).
\end{align*}From the product-to-sum formula,
\begin{align*}
\cos^2 x - \cos (x + y) \cos (x - y) &= \cos^2 x - \frac{1}{2} (\cos 2x + \cos 2y) \\
&= \cos^2 x - \frac{1}{2} \cos 2x - \frac{1}{2} \cos 2y.
\end{align*}Finally, from the double-angle formula,
\begin{align*}
\cos^2 x - \frac{1}{2} \cos 2x - \frac{1}{2} \cos 2y &= \cos^2 x - \frac{1}{2} \cdot (2 \cos^2 x - 1) - \frac{1}{2} (2 \cos^2 y - 1) \\
&= 1 - \cos^2 y = \boxed{\sin^2 y}.

We can try solving for the matrix $\mathbf{M}.$ Alternatively, we can try to express $\begin{pmatrix} 5 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix}$ as a linear combination of $\begin{pmatrix} 2 \\ -1 \end{pmatrix}$ and $\begin{pmatrix} -3 \\ 5 \end{pmatrix}.$ Let
\[\begin{pmatrix} 5 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} = a \begin{pmatrix} 2 \\ -1 \end{pmatrix} + b \begin{pmatrix} -3 \\ 5 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 2a - 3b \\ -a + 5b \end{pmatrix}.\]Thus, $5 = 2a - 3b$ and $1 = -a + 5b.$ Solving, we find $a = 4$ and $b = 1,$ so
\[\begin{pmatrix} 5 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} = 4 \begin{pmatrix} 2 \\ -1 \end{pmatrix} + \begin{pmatrix} -3 \\ 5 \end{pmatrix}.\]Therefore,
\[\mathbf{M} \begin{pmatrix} 5 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} = 4 \mathbf{M} \begin{pmatrix} 2 \\ -1 \end{pmatrix} + \mathbf{M} \begin{pmatrix} -3 \\ 5 \end{pmatrix} = 4 \begin{pmatrix} 3 \\ 0 \end{pmatrix} + \begin{pmatrix} -1 \\ -1 \end{pmatrix} = \boxed{\begin{pmatrix} 11 \\ -1 \end{pmatrix}}.\]

Since $\angle AEB = 90^\circ,$ $\angle ABE = 90^\circ - A.$ But $\angle BFH = 90^\circ,$ so $\angle BHF = A.$ Since $\overline{PR}$ is parallel to $\overline{CF}$ and $\overline{QR}$ is parallel to $\overline{BE},$ $\angle PRQ = A.$
Similarly, we can show that $\angle AHF = B.$ Since $\overline{PQ}$ is parallel to $\overline{AD},$ and $\overline{PR}$ is parallel to $\overline{CF},$ $\angle QPR = B.$ Hence, triangles $ABC$ and $RPQ$ are similar. This means
\[\frac{PQ}{BC} = \frac{QR}{AC} = \frac{PR}{AB}.\]Then
\[\frac{9AD}{BC} = \frac{4BE}{AC} = \frac{7CF}{AB}.\]But $AD = \frac{2K}{BC},$ $BE = \frac{2K}{AC},$ and $CF = \frac{2K}{AB},$ where $K$ is the area of triangle $ABC,$ so
\[\frac{18K}{BC^2} = \frac{8K}{AC^2} = \frac{14K}{AB^2}.\]Hence,
\[\frac{BC^2}{9} = \frac{AC^2}{4} = \frac{AB^2}{7},\]so $BC:AC:AB = 3:2:\sqrt{7}.$
Finally, by the Law of Cosines,
\[\cos C = \frac{3^2 + 2^2 - 7}{2 \cdot 3 \cdot 2} = \frac{6}{12} = \frac{1}{2},\]so $C = \boxed{60^\circ}.$

\alpha &= \omega + \omega^3 + \omega^4 + \omega^9 + \omega^{10} + \omega^{12}, \\
\beta &= \omega^2 + \omega^5 + \omega^6 + \omega^7 + \omega^8 + \omega^{11}.
\end{align*}Then $\alpha + \beta = \omega + \omega^2 + \omega^3 + \dots + \omega^{12} = -1.$
Also, using the fact that $\omega^{13} = 1,$ the product $\alpha \beta$ simplifies to
\[\alpha \beta = 3 \omega + 3 \omega^2 + \dots + 3 \omega^{12} = -3.\]Hence, $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are the roots of $z^2 + z - 3 = 0.$ By the quadratic formula,
\[z = \frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{13}}{2}.\]Thus, $x = \frac{-1 + \sqrt{13}}{4}$ or $x = \frac{-1 - \sqrt{13}}{4}.$
Note that
\[\cos \frac{8 \pi}{13} = -\cos \left( \pi - \frac{8 \pi}{13} \right) = -\cos \frac{5 \pi}{13},\]so
\[x = \cos \frac{2 \pi}{13} + \cos \frac{6 \pi}{13} + \cos \frac{8 \pi}{13} = \left( \cos \frac{2 \pi}{13} - \cos \frac{5 \pi}{13} \right) + \cos \frac{6 \pi}{13} > 0.\]Therefore,
\[x = \boxed{\frac{\sqrt{13} - 1}{4}}.\]

Let $a = \sin^{-1} \frac{3}{5}$ and $b = \tan^{-1} 2.$ Then $\sin a = \frac{3}{5}$ and $\tan b = 2.$ With the usual technique of constructing right triangles, we can find that $\cos a = \frac{4}{5},$ $\cos b = \frac{1}{\sqrt{5}},$ and $\sin b = \frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}.$ Therefore, from the angle addition formula,
\begin{align*}
\sin (a + b) &= \sin a \cos b + \cos a \sin b \\
&= \frac{3}{5} \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{5}} + \frac{4}{5} \cdot \frac{2}{\sqrt{5}} \\
&= \frac{11}{5 \sqrt{5}} \\
&= \boxed{\frac{11 \sqrt{5}}{25}}.
\end{align*}

The transformation that rotates about the origin by an angle of $120^\circ$ counter-clockwise takes $\begin{pmatrix} 1 \\ 0 \end{pmatrix}$ to $\begin{pmatrix} -1/2 \\ \sqrt{3}/2 \end{pmatrix},$ and $\begin{pmatrix} 0 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix}$ to $\begin{pmatrix} -\sqrt{3}/2 \\ -1/2 \end{pmatrix},$ so the matrix is
\[\boxed{\begin{pmatrix} -1/2 & -\sqrt{3}/2 \\ \sqrt{3}/2 & -1/2 \end{pmatrix}}.\]
