7a) Show that √2 cos y + √3 sin y can be written in the form r cos ( y - x ), where r > 0 and x is acute. Find the values of r and x. ( ans : r=√5 ; x = 50.8 )
b) Hence, find the maximum value of √2 cos y + √3 sin y and the smallest positive value of y at which a maximum occurs.
c) Find the minimum value of 1/(√2 cos y + √3 sin y) and the smallest positive value of y at which a minimum occurs.
**Do b + c only
