To solve 2 cos2x + sin x - 1 make use of the identity cos2x + sin2x = 1, then:
cos2x = 1 - sin2x
and
2 cos2x + sin x - 1 = 2 (1 - sin2x) + sin x - 1
= 2 - 2 sin2x + sin x - 1
= 1 + sin x - 2 sin2 x
if you let y = sin x, then you can see you have a quadratic:
1 + sin x - 2 sin2 x = 1 + y - 2y2
which can be solved for 1 + y - 2y2 = 0:
1 + y - 2y2 = 0
⇒ 2y2 - y - 1 = 0
⇒ (2y + 1)(y - 1) = 0
⇒ y = -1/2 or 1
but y = sin x, so:
sin x = -1/2 or sin x = 1
and so solve these for x.
The deriviative of sin2 x + cos2 x is 2 cos x - 2 sin x

No, (sinx)^2 + (cosx)^2=1 is though
sin x/(1+cos x) + cos x / sin x Multiply by sin x (1+cos x) =[(sin^2 x + cos x(1+cos x) ] / sin x (1+cos x) = [(sin^2 x + cos x + cos^2 x) ] / sin x (1+cos x) sin^2 x + cos^2 x = 1 = (1+cos x) / sin x (1+cos x) = 1/sin x
Until an "equals" sign shows up somewhere in the expression, there's nothing to prove.
sin cubed + cos cubed (sin + cos)( sin squared - sin.cos + cos squared) (sin + cos)(1 + sin.cos)
You can use the Pythagorean identity to solve this:(sin theta) squared + (cos theta) squared = 1.
The deriviative of sin2 x + cos2 x is 2 cos x - 2 sin x
Well, darling, if we square the first equation and the second equation, add them together, and do some algebraic magic, we can indeed show that a squared plus b squared equals 89. It's like a little math puzzle, but trust me, the answer is as sassy as I am.
Sin squared, cos squared...you removed the x in the equation.
Multiply both sides by sin(1-cos) and you lose the denominators and get (sin squared) minus 1+cos times 1-cos. Then multiply out (i.e. expand) 1+cos times 1-cos, which will of course give the difference of two squares: 1 - (cos squared). (because the cross terms cancel out.) (This is diff of 2 squares because 1 is the square of 1.) And so you get (sin squared) - (1 - (cos squared)) = (sin squared) + (cos squared) - 1. Then from basic trig we know that (sin squared) + (cos squared) = 1, so this is 0.

Sin squared is equal to 1 - cos squared.
(1+cosx)(1-cosx)= 1 +cosx - cosx -cos^2x (where ^2 means squared) = 1-cos^2x = sin^2x (sin squared x)
sin squared
No, (sinx)^2 + (cosx)^2=1 is though
[sin - cos + 1]/[sin + cos - 1] = [sin + 1]/cosiff [sin - cos + 1]*cos = [sin + 1]*[sin + cos - 1]iff sin*cos - cos^2 + cos = sin^2 + sin*cos - sin + sin + cos - 1iff -cos^2 = sin^2 - 11 = sin^2 + cos^2, which is true,
