B. cosθ
2
1

C. sinθ

1

D. None of the above

Answer by Edwin McCravy(20056)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
cosθ + sinθ = 2cosθ
Add -cosθ to both sides of the equation

 cosθ + sinθ = 2cosθ
-cosθ          -cosθ
--------------------
        sinθ =  cosθ

Add -sinθ to both sides of the equation:

        sinθ =  cosθ
       -sinθ = -sinθ
       -------------
           0 =  cosθ - sinθ 

The answer is 0.  None of the above.
