To find \(\sin \frac{x}{2}\), \(\cos \frac{x}{2}\), and \(\tan \frac{x}{2}\) given that \(\tan x = -\frac{4}{3}\) and \(x\) is in the second quadrant, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine \(\sin x\) and \(\cos x\) Since \(\tan x = \frac{\sin x}{\cos x}\), we can express \(\sin x\) and \(\cos x\) in terms of a right triangle. In the second quadrant, \(\sin x\) is positive and \(\cos x\) is negative. Let: - Opposite side = 4 (since \(\tan x = -\frac{4}{3}\), we take the opposite side as 4) ...
