Please help me to prove Sin^2 -Cos^2 =1 .....
Sin^2(x)-Cos^2(x) does not equal one.
\[ \sin ^{2} - \cos ^{2} =1 \] Please Prove this....
\[\sin ^2(x)-\cos^2(x)\neq1\]
But I ve got this from a web site.... Here's the address.... Please go there and see whats wrong with it... .... http://www.cramster.com/practice-problems-p25-0-0-0-0-0-39167-0-cpi0-0.aspx
Which number?
In the Practice-3 Question set.... number 4
\[\sin ^2(x)+\cos^2(x)=1\]\[\sin ^2(x)-\cos^2(x)=-\cos(2x)\]
Oh.... Friutless can you please explain this farther......
Which one?
Your reply for the Question I 've asked.....
ok well this can be proved for sin(x)^2 + cos(x)^2 = 1 because this identity is true. you want to prove this? THE IDENTITY sin(x)^2 - cos(x)^2 = 1 IS NOT TRUE. DON'T THINK ABOUT WHAT THE WEBSITE SAYS. IT IS NOT TRUE. PERIOD. what would you like help proving?
It is asking which one from the choices is correct. It is obviously not D.
(i) is the correct answer.
Ok prove this one then... \[\sin ^{8}A-\cos ^{8}A = (\sin ^{2}A-\cos ^{2}A) (1- 2 \sin ^{2}A \cos ^{2}A)\]
apply the FOIL method to the right side (expand it) \[-\cos^2(A)+\sin^2(A)+2 \cos^4(A) \sin^2(A)-2 Cos^2(A) Sin^4(A)\]
Replace the first two functions with an identity, and factor the rest.
Hmmmm.... friutless in which grade you're studying... ?
high school
In which country...?
usa
Really.... then I think you have done something similar to the syllbus of London A/L isn't you?
I am asking this from you because I am a student who has just started doing A/L s in Sri Lanka (somewhat similar to London A/L ). so I don't know the FOIL method..... So I can't understand you're reply.....
Given (x-a)(y-b), applying FOIL yeilds xy-xb-ay+ab
Do the same on the trigonometric expressions
wow... I've got the right teacher here... thank you....
did you get the left side from this method?
\[Sin ^{8}A-\cos ^{8}A=( \sin ^{2}A-\cos ^{2}A)(\sin ^{6}A+\cos ^{6}A)+\sin ^{2}Acos ^{6}A-\cos ^{2}Asin ^{6}A\] Here's what I've done....... but I've stucked in it please try this also....
Please help me......
