3. Verify the following identity by using an angle sum identity: cos (2x) = 1 – 2(sin2 x). Hint (2x = x + x) Found 2 solutions by Boreal, anand429:Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! double angle identity for cos (x+y)
=cosx*cosy - sinx*siny
=cosx^2 - sinx^2 since y=x
But cos^2 x + sin^2 x =1
Therefore, cos (2x)= 1-sin^2 x -sin^2 x substituting in two lines above.
cos (2x)=1-2 sin^2 x
