Best Answer

The question is ambiguous and the two possible answers are:

sin(pi)/3 = 0

and

sin(pi/3) = sqrt(3)/2

It is assumed, of course, that since the angles are given in terms of pi, they are measured in radians and not degrees!

What is the exact value using a sum or difference formula of the expression cos 11pi over 12?

11pi/12 = pi - pi/12 cos(11pi/12) = cos(pi - pi/12) cos(a-b) = cos(a)cos(b)+sin(a)sin(b) cos(pi -pi/12) = cos(pi)cos(pi/12) + sin(pi)sin(pi/12) sin(pi)=0 cos(pi)=-1 Therefore, cos(pi -pi/12) = -cos(pi/12) pi/12=pi/3 -pi/4 cos(pi/12) = cos(pi/3 - pi/4) = cos(pi/3)cos(pi/4)+sin(pi/3) sin(pi/4) cos(pi/3)=1/2 sin(pi/3)=sqrt(3)/2 cos(pi/4)= sqrt(2)/2 sin(pi/4) = sqrt(2)/2 cos(pi/3)cos(pi/4)+sin(pi/3) sin(pi/4) = (1/2)(sqrt(2)/2 ) + (sqrt(3)/2)( sqrt(2)/2) = sqrt(2)/4 + sqrt(6) /4 = [sqrt(2)+sqrt(6)] /4 Therefore, cos(pi/12) = (sqrt(2)+sqrt(6))/4 -cos(pi/12) = -(sqrt(2)+sqrt(6))/4 cos(11pi/12) = -(sqrt(2)+sqrt(6))/4


Is sin3A plus sinA equal to 0?

No, for example if A = Pi/3. Then sin3A = sin pi = 0, but sinA = sin Pi/3 = 1/2. So for A = Pi/3, the sum is 1/2, not zero. It can't be proved because the statement is false. For example if A = Pi/3. Then sin3A = sin pi = 0, but sinA = sin Pi/3 = 1/2. So for A = Pi/3, the sum is 1/2, not zero.


How was it determined that the tangent of pi divided by 4 is 1?

As tan(x)=sin(x)/cos(x) and sin(pi/4) = cos(pi/4) (= sqrt(2)/2) then tan(pi/4) = 1

Why does sin 2pi over 6 radians equal .5?

Sin(2*pi/6) = sin(pi/3) which, by definition, is 0.5 If you wish, you can calculate y/1! - y^3/3! + y^5/5! - y^7/7! + ... where y = pi/3.
