The problem is:
Prove cos(810degrees-x)=sinx
He was suppose to give us the formula for it, but never did. I think if you can just explain this first one I'll be able to figure out the rest.
Thanks! Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Prove cos(810degrees-x)=sinx
------
You can always throw away multiples of 360 degrees.
----
Your problem::
810-2*360 = 90 degrees
---
So, cos(810 - x) = cos(90-x) = sin(x)
because cos and sin are complementary trig functions.
