If cos A= 1/8 With A in QIV, find sec A/2
Show work

Recall the half-angle identity,

cos²(x/2) = (1 + cos(x))/2

The angle A terminates in the fourth quadrant, so 270° < A < 360°. Then the corresponding half-angle terminates in the second quadrant, since 135° < A/2 < 180°, so cos(A/2) < 0. This means

cos(A/2) = - √((1 + cos(A))/2) = -3/4

so that

sec(A/2) = 1/cos(A/2) = -4/3.

step-by-step explanation:

well, you see here, jamal was born to 2 parents, his mother who he lives with and his father who left at a young age and who happens to be younger than him. he stole cookies because he has to steal food due to the fact that he spends his government poverty checks on pot and women.
