Question

How would you solve this?
(cos a- cosb)^2 +(sina-sinb)^2 = (cos(a-b)-1)^2+ (sin(a-b)-0)^2

Answer 1

By expanding everything.

You might need these identities.

in(A+B)=sin A cos B + cos A sin B
sin(A-B)=sin A cos B - cos A sin B
cos(A+B)=cos A cos B - sin A sin B
cos(A-B)=cos A cos B + sin A sin B

Answer 2

\[Cos^2x+Sin^2x=1\]\[(a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2\]

Answer 3

Theese 6 is all what you need to know I think. You should be able to do this, (sorry)

Answer 4

thankyou

Answer 5

I didn't help you much, this is too much work...
