Prove the following identities: @ganeshie8

MARC (marc_d):

\[\frac{ \sin~2A+\cos~2A-1 }{ \sin~2A+\cos~2A+1 }=\frac{ \tan~A }{ \tan(45+A) }\]

MARC (marc_d):

we must get rid of the 1,right?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Not really sure you want to replace 1 by sin^2A + cos^2A ?

MARC (marc_d):

no,i want to replace with the DA formulae.. so,can we use the DA formulae to replace 1?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Oh that's a nice idea

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

replace cos(2A) in top by 1 - 2sin^2A replace cos(2A) in bottom by 2cos^2A - 1 ?

MARC (marc_d):

yep..,that's what i'm thinking..but once i did it i got stuck somewhere.. xD

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[\begin{align} \dfrac{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{\cos~2A}-1 }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{\cos~2A}+1 } &= \dfrac{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{1-2\sin^2A}-1 }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{2\cos^2A-1}+1 }\\~\\ \end{align}\]

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[\begin{align} \dfrac{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{\cos~2A}-1 }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{\cos~2A}+1 } &= \dfrac{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{1-2\sin^2A}-1 }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{2\cos^2A-1}+1 }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ \sin~2A\color{red}{-2\sin^2A} }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{2\cos^2A} }\\~\\ \end{align}\]

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Perhaps replace sin2A by 2sinAcosA and try factoring

MARC (marc_d):

okay

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[\begin{align} \dfrac{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{\cos~2A}-1 }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{\cos~2A}+1 } &= \dfrac{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{1-2\sin^2A}-1 }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{2\cos^2A-1}+1 }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ \sin~2A\color{red}{-2\sin^2A} }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{2\cos^2A} }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ 2\sin A\cos A\color{red}{-2\sin^2A} }{ 2\sin A\cos A+\color{red}{2\cos^2A} }\\~\\ \end{align}\]

MARC (marc_d):

we can factorise the 2

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

2 cancels out

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

pull out sinA from top pull out cosA from bottom

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

that gives you tanA

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[\begin{align} \dfrac{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{\cos~2A}-1 }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{\cos~2A}+1 } &= \dfrac{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{1-2\sin^2A}-1 }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{2\cos^2A-1}+1 }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ \sin~2A\color{red}{-2\sin^2A} }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{2\cos^2A} }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ 2\sin A\cos A\color{red}{-2\sin^2A} }{ 2\sin A\cos A+\color{red}{2\cos^2A} }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ \sin A(\cos A\color{red}{-\sin A)} }{ \cos A(\sin A+\color{red}{\cos A)} }\\~\\ \end{align}\]

MARC (marc_d):

Yep,i got stuck here..

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[\begin{align} \dfrac{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{\cos~2A}-1 }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{\cos~2A}+1 } &= \dfrac{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{1-2\sin^2A}-1 }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{2\cos^2A-1}+1 }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ \sin~2A\color{red}{-2\sin^2A} }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{2\cos^2A} }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ 2\sin A\cos A\color{red}{-2\sin^2A} }{ 2\sin A\cos A+\color{red}{2\cos^2A} }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ \sin A(\cos A\color{red}{-\sin A)} }{ \cos A(\sin A+\color{red}{\cos A)} }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ \tan A(\cos A\color{red}{-\sin A)} }{ \sin A+\color{red}{\cos A} }\\~\\ \end{align}\]

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

maybe divide cosA top and bottom

MARC (marc_d):

alrite

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[\begin{align} \dfrac{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{\cos~2A}-1 }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{\cos~2A}+1 } &= \dfrac{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{1-2\sin^2A}-1 }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{2\cos^2A-1}+1 }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ \sin~2A\color{red}{-2\sin^2A} }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{2\cos^2A} }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ 2\sin A\cos A\color{red}{-2\sin^2A} }{ 2\sin A\cos A+\color{red}{2\cos^2A} }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ \sin A(\cos A\color{red}{-\sin A)} }{ \cos A(\sin A+\color{red}{\cos A)} }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ \tan A(\cos A\color{red}{-\sin A)} }{ \sin A+\color{red}{\cos A} }\\~\\ &= \tan A *\dfrac{(\cos A\color{red}{-\sin A)}/\color{blue}{\cos A} }{ (\sin A+\color{red}{\cos A})/\color{blue}{\cos A} }\\~\\ \end{align}\]

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[\begin{align} \dfrac{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{\cos~2A}-1 }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{\cos~2A}+1 } &= \dfrac{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{1-2\sin^2A}-1 }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{2\cos^2A-1}+1 }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ \sin~2A\color{red}{-2\sin^2A} }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{2\cos^2A} }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ 2\sin A\cos A\color{red}{-2\sin^2A} }{ 2\sin A\cos A+\color{red}{2\cos^2A} }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ \sin A(\cos A\color{red}{-\sin A)} }{ \cos A(\sin A+\color{red}{\cos A)} }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ \tan A(\cos A\color{red}{-\sin A)} }{ \sin A+\color{red}{\cos A} }\\~\\ &= \tan A *\dfrac{(\cos A\color{red}{-\sin A)}/\color{blue}{\cos A} }{ (\sin A+\color{red}{\cos A})/\color{blue}{\cos A} }\\~\\ &=\tan A * \dfrac{1-\tan A}{\tan A + 1} \end{align}\]

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

next replace 1 by tan(45)

MARC (marc_d):

nice :)

MARC (marc_d):

ook

MARC (marc_d):

\[tanA~\times~\frac{ \tan45-tanA }{tanA-\tan45 }\]

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[tanA~\times~\frac{ \tan45-tanA }{tanA\color{red}{+}\tan45 }\]

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

lookup tan(A+B) formula

MARC (marc_d):

tan(A+B)=(tanA+tanB)/(1-tanAtanB)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Oh one sec

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[\begin{align} \dfrac{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{\cos~2A}-1 }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{\cos~2A}+1 } &= \dfrac{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{1-2\sin^2A}-1 }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{2\cos^2A-1}+1 }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ \sin~2A\color{red}{-2\sin^2A} }{ \sin~2A+\color{red}{2\cos^2A} }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ 2\sin A\cos A\color{red}{-2\sin^2A} }{ 2\sin A\cos A+\color{red}{2\cos^2A} }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ \sin A(\cos A\color{red}{-\sin A)} }{ \cos A(\sin A+\color{red}{\cos A)} }\\~\\ &= \dfrac{ \tan A(\cos A\color{red}{-\sin A)} }{ \sin A+\color{red}{\cos A} }\\~\\ &= \tan A *\dfrac{(\cos A\color{red}{-\sin A)}/\color{blue}{\cos A} }{ (\sin A+\color{red}{\cos A})/\color{blue}{\cos A} }\\~\\ &=\tan A * \dfrac{1-\tan A}{\tan A + 1}\\~\\ &=\tan A * \dfrac{1-\color{purple}{\tan(45)}\tan A}{\tan A + \color{purple}{\tan(45)}} \end{align}\]

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

that should work, see

MARC (marc_d):

Ok

MARC (marc_d):

\[=\tan~\div \frac{ tanA+\tan~45 }{ 1-\tan45(tanA) }\]

MARC (marc_d):

=tan A/ (tan(45+A)

MARC (marc_d):
