I think you have to use the sum to product formula.

OpenStudy (zepp):

\[\large \sin\alpha+\sin\beta=2\sin(\frac{\alpha +\beta}{2})\cos(\frac{\alpha -\beta}{2})\]

OpenStudy (zepp):

For the numerator, you have: \(\sin\theta+\sin(2\theta)\) By applying the trig identity above you'll get: \[\large \sin\theta+\sin(3\theta)=2\sin(\frac{\theta +3\theta}{2})\cos(\frac{\theta -3\theta}{2})\]

OpenStudy (zepp):

Simplify it\[ \large \sin\theta+\sin(3\theta)=2\sin(\frac{4\theta}{2})\cos(\frac{-2\theta}{2})=2\sin(2\theta)\cos(-\theta)\\\large=2\sin(2\theta)\cos(\theta)\]

OpenStudy (zepp):

Put everything back.. \[\large \frac{\sin\theta+\sin(3\theta)}{2\sin(2\theta)}=\frac{2\sin(2\theta)\cos(\theta)}{2\sin(2\theta)}=\cos\theta\]
