Find (2x) given that sin(x)=2/5 and x is in quadrant II. Give exact value for sin(2x)
\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "\"cos%28x%29+=+sqrt%281+-+sin%5E2%28x%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"cos%28x%29+=+sqrt%2821%2F25%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
\n" ); document.write( "sin(2x) = 2sin(x)cos(x)
\n" ); document.write( "= 2*(2/5)*sqrt(21)/5
\n" ); document.write( "= 4sqrt(21)/25
\n" ); document.write( "cos(x) is negative in Q2, so use the - sqrt
\n" ); document.write( "sin(2x) = -4sqrt(21)/25
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
