Algebra.Com's Answer #565968 by stanbon(75887)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Prove cos(810degrees-x)=sinx \n" ); document.write( "------ \n" ); document.write( "You can always throw away multiples of 360 degrees. \n" ); document.write( "---- \n" ); document.write( "Your problem:: \n" ); document.write( "810-2*360 = 90 degrees \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "So, cos(810 - x) = cos(90-x) = sin(x) \n" ); document.write( "because cos and sin are complementary trig functions. \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( "------------- \n" ); document.write( " |
