Simplify square root parenthesis 1 minus cosine theta parenthesis times parenthesis 1 plus cosine theta parenthesis. |sin Θ| ±cos Θ ±tan Θ square root cosine theta
\[\sqrt{1 - \cos \theta}* \sqrt{1+\cos \theta}\]
Is that right? When multiplying square root, you can but both factors under the square root, and expand it. \[\sqrt{(1+\cos \theta)(1 - \cos \theta)}\]
yes that is the right question but I think the awnser is plus or minus cos theta but im not sure
Just expand out what's under the square root. You'll see.
wouldn't the awnser be the squareroot of cos and the squareroot of -cos
Nooo. What did you get when you expanded out the factors. ;-;
Nope. Try again. ;3 Look again at your last step in the FOIL method
1-cosTheta+cosTheta-costhetasquared
Yesh. Now simplify what's under the square root. c: You'll get. \[\sqrt{1 - \cos^2 \theta}\] Now, you'll have to use this trig identity: \[\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta = 1\] \[\sin^2 \theta = 1 - \cos^2 \theta\]
so is the awnser A
Let's not get ahead of ourselves now. ;-; Do the final steps.
\[\sqrt{\sin ^{2}}\]
.-. And...yeah lol. \[\sqrt{x^2} = |x|\] Therefore, \[\sqrt{\sin^2 \theta} = |\sin \theta|\]
ok thanks
