SOLUTION: 37. SUNGLASSES Many sunglasses are made with polarized lenses, which reduce the intensity of light. The intensity of light emerging from a system of two polarizing lenses I can be calculated by I = I0 –
, where I0 is the
intensity of light entering the system of lenses and θ is the angle of the axis of the second lens in relation to that of
the first lens.
a. Simplify the formula for the intensity of light emerging from a system of two polarized lenses.
b. If a pair of sunglasses contains a system of two polarizing lenses with axes at 30º to one another, what proportion
of the intensity of light entering the sunglasses emerges?
SOLUTION: a.

Determine whether each parent trigonometric function shown is odd or even. Explain your reasoning.
48. SOLUTION: Odd; the graph shown is f (x) = cot x. f (–x) = cot (–x) = –cot x = –f (x). Since f (–x) = –f (x), f (x) = cot x is an odd
function.
49. SOLUTION: Even; the graph shown is f (x) = sec x. f (–x) = sec (–x) = sec x = f (x). Since f (–x) = f (x), f (x) = sec x is an even
function.
50. SOCCER When a soccer ball is kicked from the ground, its height y and horizontal displacement x are related by
the equation y =
+ , where v0 is the initial velocity of the ball,
kicked, and g is the acceleration due to gravity. Rewrite this equation so that tan
