Question 181996: sin(A+B) = sin A cos B + cos A sin B
cos(A+B) = cos A cos B - sin A sin B
a) obtain an expression for cos 2x in terms of sin^2 x.
b) obtain an expression for sin 2x in terms of sin x and cos x.
c) show that cos 4x = 1 - 8sin^2 x + 8sin^4 x.
d) solve, for 0≤x≤π/2, the equation sin^2 x - sin^4 x = 0.1, giving your solutions to 2 decimal places.
e) find ∫(sin^4 x – sin^2 x + 2 cosx)dx. upper limit is π/2.
lower limit is 0.

Question 182085: I am working with a non-right triangle with Angle A and Angle B unknown. Angle C measures 36.5 degrees. Side a=13, b=?, c=7.8. The question states that sin(36.5)=0.5948, and cos(36.5)=0.8039. I am having trouble figuring out how to calculate sin A. Can someone out there please help me??? I have tried using the law of cosines but I ran into a dead end quickly on that try. Thank you for any help that you can provide!!

Question 183068: Find all solutions to the equation. Use a lower-case n to denote an arbitrary integer; separate your answers with commas; use the most compact expressions possible.
(cos(x) - 1) sin(x) = 0
Any help is greatly appreciated! I am really struggling just to start these problems. I received 0 + 2Pi as an answer for this but the system said it was wrong.
