10. a) Solve the equation cos2x = 4 cos x -2 sin x for 0x 180 .
0 0 0 0
hence solve the equation sin (x+20 )= 2 sin (x - 20 ) for 0 x 180 .
3x – y + Z = 2 and x + 5y + 2 Z = 6.
Find the Cartesian equation of the line.
b) Given that line B is perpendicular to the plane 3x – y + Z = 2 and passes through the point C (1,1,0), find the:
