Answer 1

A trigonometric expression world be:

sin(x)^2+cos(x)^2

Answer 2

Raising sin(x) to the exponent 2 is the same as multiplying sin(x) by itself 2 times.

Answer 3

@love_jessika15 okay, i see.

Answer 4

Multiply sin(x) by sin(x)

Multiply sin(x) and sin(x)

Multiply the sin(x) and sin(x) by adding the exponents the sin's

sin(x) × sin(x) = sin^2(x)

sin(x)^2 evaluates to: sin^2(x)

Answer 5

@love_jessika15 okay i see so it would all simplify down to cos^2(x) ?

Answer 6

Raising cos(x) to the exponent 2 is the same as multiplying cos(x) by itself 2 times.

Multiply cos(x) by cos(x)

Multiply the cos(x) and cos(x) by adding the exponents the cos's

cos(x) × cos(x) = cos^2(x)

sin(x)^2+cos(x)^2 evaluates to sin^2(x)+cos^2(x)

Answer 7

sin^2(x)+cos^2(x) is the final answer.

Answer 8

@love_jessika15 okay, thank you I see how you simplify now :) thanks a bunch!

Answer 9

You're welcom (:
