Q: Determine cos2x if sin^4 x = 25/36, the solution is in the first quadrant.
Tutorial:
sin^4 x = 25/36
Get the square root of both sides
sin^2 x = 5/6
[We disregard the negative root since the solution is in the first quadrant]
Use the double angle identity cos2x = 1 - 2sin^2 x
cos2x = 1 - 2(5/6) =
