Using the sum/difference formula find: sin(pi/12)
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "sin(pi/12) = sin[(pi/3)-(pi/4)] = sin(pi/3)cos(pi/4)-cos(pi/3)sin(pi/4)
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "= (sqrt(3)/2)(sqrt(2)/2) - (1/2)(sqrt(2)/2)
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "= [sqrt(6)/4] - sqrt(2)/4)
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "= (sqrt(6)-sqrt(2))/4
