verify that each equation is an identity.
1.1+sin2x=(sinx+cosx)^2
1 + sin2x = sin^2x + 2sinxcosx + cos^2
1 + sin2x = sin^2x + cos^2x + 2sinxcosx
1 + 2sinxcosx = 1 + 2sinxcosx
====================================
2.(cosxsinx)=(sin2x)/2
Multiply both sides by 2 to get:
2sinxcosx = sin(2x)
2sinxcosx = 2sinxcosx
========================
Cheers,
