Prove that
\[\cos ( 9) + \sin (9) = \sqrt{2} \sin 54\]
@arabpride
trig.?? calc.?? im no g00d at either :/ sorry .-. wish i cud help *^.^*
@Kainui
I won't ever help you unless I see you try to figure it out first.
How to find cos 9 @Kainui
I don't know how to do this
That's fine, that's what learning is about. You don't know something. So now it's your job to look at what you do know and see if you can try to use that to solve your problem. I suggest you look at a table of trigonometric identities to help you out. If you don't already have one, here's a random one I found on the internet. If you search, I'm sure you can find one that you like. http://www.purplemath.com/modules/idents.htm
But How to find cos 9 ?
you may use : 45+9 = 54
Both angles are between 0 and 90, so that means both sides are positive.
in other words \(\cos(9)+\sin(9)=\sqrt{[\cos(9)+\sin(9)]^2} = \sqrt{2\sin(9)\cos(9)} \) Just throwing it out there, it may or may not help a bit.
@goformit100 The only reason I'm doing this is because I've noticed your past 3 questions have been of a similar nature and I think you need to show more effort in solving these. To simply say you don't know how to find something isn't good enough. It's ok to be wrong, but you can't learn without doing, otherwise when someone tells you an answer it will work but mean nothing to you.
Ok I am Logging off
ganeshie8's hint is a good one, you should definitely use it, it can lead you to the right answer. Good luck.
