Identity, double angle: \"sine%282%2Atheta%29=2%2Asin%28theta%29cos%28theta%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Use also the identity \"cos%5E2%28theta%29%2Bsin%5E2%28theta%29=1\" which gives you \"cos%28theta%29=sqrt%281-sin%5E2%28theta%29%29\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "sine is \"3%2F8\" for \"theta\", you want as the double angle, \"sin%282%2Atheta%29=2%283%2F8%29%2Acos%28theta%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28sin%282%2Atheta%29=2%283%2F8%29%2Asqrt%281-%283%2F8%29%5E2%29%29\"----only needing computation to finish into final value simplified.\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Decimal approximation, 0.695, but I suggest working through into simplest radical form, FIRST.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Note that for \"sin%28theta%29=3%2F8\", this is an angle of about 22 degrees. \"2%2Atheta\" is still in the first quadrant.
