Can anyone help me with this proof using trig identities?

OpenStudy (dannyo19):

Perhaps

OpenStudy (dannyo19):

How can I help?

"cis" is quite unusual in trig. What does "cis" mean to you? We'll have to agree on terms.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cis means cos theta+ i sin theta

OpenStudy (mathmale):

thank you.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do u need a proof like LHS=RHS

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think so @ayeshaafzal221

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Oh that's interesting, \[cis = \cos \theta + i \sin \theta\] I did not know that. This is Euler's identity, \[e^{i \theta} = \cos \theta + i \sin \theta \] you may need to apply this.

OpenStudy (zarkon):

\(\text{cis}(\theta) = \cos (\theta) + i \sin (\theta)\) is a common notation. I'm surprised that it seems new to people
