check my work????/?

The right side of all lines above is just 1.
You made an error with a sign early on. See what I wrote in red above.
You are subtracting the sin of a difference which is a subtraction, so it needs to be in parentheses. Then the second sign becomes positive.
thsnk you so much
You're welcome.
