Mathematics Theory (a) Make m the subject of the relations (h = frac{mt}{d(m + p)}). (b)   In…

(a) Make m the subject of the relations (h = frac{mt}{d(m + p)}).

(b)  

In the diagram, WY and WZ are straight lines, O is the centre of circle WXM and < XWM = 48°. Calculate the value of < WYZ.

(c) An operation (star) is defind on the set X = {1, 3, 5, 6} by (m star n = m + n + 2 (mod 7)) where (m, n in X).

(i) Draw a table for the operation.

(ii) Using the table, find the truth set of : (I) (3 star n = 3) ; (II) (n star n = 3).

Explanation

(a) (h = frac{mt}{d(m + p)})

(dh(m + p) = mt)

(dhm + dhp = mt implies dhp = mt – dhm)

(dhp = m(t – dh) implies m = frac{dhp}{t – dh})

(b) 

In the diagram above, < WXM = 90° (angle in a semicircle)

< WMX = 180° – (90° + 48°)

= 42°

< XMZ = 180° – 42° (angles on a straight line)

= 138°

< WYZ = 180° – 138° (opp. angles of a cyclic quadrilateral)

= 42°

(c)  

(star) 1 3 5 6
1 4 6 1 2
3 6 1 3 4
5 1 3 5 6
6 2 4 6 0

(ii) From the table, the truth set of :

(I) (3 star n = 3; n = {5})

(II) (n star n = 3; n = { })
