write the expression as sine, cosine or tangent of a single angle.
cos(pi )/(6)cos(pi )/(7)-sin(pi )/(6)sin(pi )/(7)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`

Apply the formula of sum for cosine:

cos(a)*cos(b) - sin(a)*sin(b) = cos(a+b).



    See the lesson   Addition and subtraction formulas  in this site.



You will get 

 =  =  = .

Solved.
