9. $$\mathrm { f } ( \theta ) = 4 \cos \theta + 5 \sin \theta \quad \theta \in R$$ a. Express \(\mathrm { f } ( \theta )\) in the form \(R \cos ( \theta - \alpha )\) where \(R\) and \(\alpha\) are constants, \(R > 0\) and \(0 < \alpha < \frac { \pi } { 2 }\). Give the exact value of \(R\) and give the value of \(\alpha\), in radians, to 3 decimal places. Given that $$\mathrm { g } ( \theta ) = \frac { 135 } { 4 + \mathrm { f } ( \theta ) ^ { 2 } } \quad \theta \in R$$ b.find the range of \(g\).
