a, Áp dụng PTG: \(BC=\sqrt{AB^2+AC^2}=25\)
Áp dụng HTL: \(BH=\dfrac{AB^2}{BC}=9\)
b, \(\sin\alpha+\cos\alpha=1,4\Leftrightarrow\left(\sin\alpha+\cos\alpha\right)^2=1,96\)
\(\Leftrightarrow\sin^2\alpha+\cos^2\alpha+2\sin\alpha\cdot\cos\alpha=1,96\\ \Leftrightarrow\sin\alpha\cdot\cos\alpha=\dfrac{1,96-1}{2}=\dfrac{0,96}{2}=0,48\)
\(\sin^4\alpha+\cos^4\alpha=\left(\sin^2\alpha+\cos^2\alpha\right)^2-2\sin^2\alpha\cdot\cos^2\alpha\\ =1^2+2\left(\sin\alpha\cdot\cos\alpha\right)^2=1+2\cdot\left(0,48\right)^2=1,4608\)
