In the previous sections, we used: a) The Fundamental Identities a)Sin²x + Cos²x = 1 b) Sum & Difference Formulas a)Cos (u – v) = Cos u Cos v + Sin u Sin v Now we will use double angle and half angle formulas
Double-angle formulas are the formulas used most often:
Use the following triangle to find the following: 2 5 Sin 2 θ Cos 2 θ Tan 2 θ θ
Use the following triangle to find the following: 2 5 Sin 2 θ = 2Sin θ Cos θ θ
2 5 Cos 2 θ = 2Cos² θ - 1 θ
2 5 Tan 2 θ θ
Use the following triangle to find the following: 1 4 Csc 2 θ Sec 2 θ Cot 2 θ θ
General guidelines to follow when the double-angle formulas to solve equations: 1) Apply the appropriate double-angle formula 2) Look to factor 3) Solve the equation using the different strategies involved in solving equations
Solve the following equation in the interval [0, 2π) Sin 2x – Cos x = 0 1. Apply the double-angle formula 2 Sin x Cos x – Cos x = 0 2. Look to factor Cos x (2 Sin x – 1) = 0
3. Solve the equation Cos x = 02 Sin x - 1= 0 Sin x = ½ x x
Solve the following equation in the interval [0, 2π) 2 Cos x + Sin 2x = 0 2 Cos x + 2 Sin x Cos x = 0 2 Cos x (1+ Sin x) = 0 2 Cos x = 01 + Sin x = 0
2 Cos x = 01 + Sin x = 0 Cos x = 0 Sin x = -1 x x
Solve the following equations for x in the interval [0, 2π) a) Sin 2x Sin x = Cos x b) Cos 2x + Sin x = 0 x x
Sin 2x Sin x = Cos x 2 Sin x Cos x Sin x = Cos x 2 Sin²x Cos x – Cos x = 0 Cos x (2 Sin²x – 1) = 0 Cos x = 02 Sin²x – 1 = 0 Sin²x = ½ Sin x = ± ½ x = x
Cos 2x + Sin x = 0 1 – 2Sin² x + Sin x = 0 2Sin² x - Sin x - 1= 0 (2 Sin x + 1) (Sin x – 1) = 0 2 Sin x + 1 = 0Sin x – 1 = 0 Sin x = ½Sin x = 1 x x =
