Complete the identity. I will post it.

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

oops - it won't let me in..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

ok so you want to simplify this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it says to complete it not sure... A. cot α + cot β B. tan α + tan β C. tan β + tan α D. -tan α + cot β

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

sin ( a + b) = sinacosb + cosasinb --------- ----------------- cosacosb cosacosb maybe this will help...

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

if we divide = sina + sinb ---- ---- cosa cosb = tan a + tan b

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

thats b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh thnx!

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

no probs

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh never mind!

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

same one!

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

lol - ok

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

do you follow the method ok?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this was it!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A. 1 + cot α cot β B. tan α tan β + cot β C. 1 + tan α tan β D. 1 + cot α tan β

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

i think we can do this in similar way cos (a - b) = cosacosb + sinasinb --------- ------------------ coscosb cosacosb and if you do the division this = 1 + tan a tanb which is option C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh okay thnx!

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

last step is cosacosb -------- = 1 cosacosb and sina * sinb --- ---- = tana * tanb cosa cosb

OpenStudy (cwrw238):
