sin(70°) = A) sin(50°)cos(20°) − cos(50°)sin(20°) B) sin(50°)cos(20°) + cos(50°)sin(20°) C) cos(50°)cos(20°) − sin(50°)sin(20°) D) cos(50°)cos(20°) + sin(50°)sin(20°) E) cos(20°)sin(20°) − sin(50°)cos(50°)

bill533:

@dude

bill533:

sin(α + β) = sin(α) cos(β) + cos(α) sin(β)

JSVSL7:

Apply the formula. You can let alpha=50 and beta=20. Now you need to plug the values into the formula above.

bill533:

is it D

bill533:

if i'm not mistaken

dude:

Careful You're multiplying sin by cosine, not cosine by cosine

bill533:

eliminate D, B, and E It's A

dude:

The equation they gave you was adding D: \(sin(α + β) = sin(α) cos(β) \bf{\color{red}{+}}\) \( cos(α) sin(β)\) Only adding equations are B and D D is wrong, low and behold

bill533:

ok it has to be B

dude:

Ya
