There are two ways to solve for the double angle formulas in trigonometry. The first is to use the angle addition formulas for sine and cosine.
* sin(a + b) = sin(a)cos(b) + cos(a)sin(b) * cos(a + b) = cos(a)cos(b) - sin(a)sin(b) if a = b, then
* sin(2a) = sin(a)cos(a) + cos(a)sin(a) = 2sin(a)cos(a) * cos(2a) = cos2(a) - sin2(b) The cooler way to solve for the double angle formulas is to use Euler's identity. eix = cos(x) + i*sin(x). Yes, that is "i" as in imaginary number.
we we put 2x in for x, we get
* e2ix = cos(2x) + i*sin(2x) This is the same as
* (eix)2 = cos(2x) + i*sin(2x) We can substitute our original equation back in for eix.
* (cos(x) + i*sin(x))2 = cos(2x) + i*sin(2x) We can distribute the squared term.
* cos2(x) + i*sin(x)cos(x) + i*sin(x)cos(x) + (i*sin(x))2 = cos(2x) + i*sin(2x) And simplify. Because i is SQRT(-1), the i squared term becomes negative.
* cos2(x) + 2i*sin(x)cos(x) - sin2(x) = cos(2x) + i*sin(2x) * cos2(x) - sin2(x) + 2i*sin(x)cos(x) = cos(2x) + i*sin(2x) Now you can plainly see both formulas in the equation arranged quite nicely. I don't yet know how to get rid of the i, but I'm working on it.

How do you solve right triangles in Trigonometry?
you use the the 3 trigonometry functions , sin=opposite divided by hypotenuse cos=adjacent divided by hypotenuse tan=opposite divided by adjacent these are used to work out angles and side lengths in right angle triangles only!!! sine,cosine,tangent :)
How do you solve sin2a - sin4a equals cos2a - cos4a?
Probably you should start by looking up the double-angle formulas, reducing the "4a" to some combination of "2a".
How do you solve absolute value inequalities?
The absolute value of something is also the square root of the square of that something. This can be used to solve equations involving absolute values.
What does trigonometry involve?
You need to be able to solve logarithms and be very good at algebra. In college, you have to be able to do college level algebra before you can take trig.
At a certain distance the angle of elevation to the top of a building is 60 From 40ft further back the angle of elevation is 45 Find the height of the building?
Angle of elevation: tangent angle = opposite/adjacent and by rearranging the given formula will help to solve the problem
How do you solve identities on trigonometry?
Unlike equations (or inequalities), identities are always true. It is, therefore, not possible to solve them to obtain values of the variable(s).
How do you solve the hypotenuse of triangle APC if angle P is a right angle?
By using trigonometry or using Pythagoras' theorem for a right angle triangle.
How do you solve for x in a angle in a double angle?
lol hahaha
When given all three side lengths of a triangle but none of the angle measures you can solve for all angle measures using .?
With trigonometry by using the cosine rule

What are the identities in trigonometry?
In trigonometry, identities are mathematical expressions that are true for all values of the variables involved. Some common trigonometric identities include the Pythagorean identities, the reciprocal identities, the quotient identities, and the double angle identities. These identities are used to simplify trigonometric expressions and solve trigonometric equations.
