What does negative sine squared plus cosine squared equal?
To determine what negative sine squared plus cosine squared is equal to, start with the primary trigonometric identity, which is based on the pythagorean theorem...sin2(theta) + cos2(theta) = 1... and then solve for the question...cos2(theta) = 1 - sin2(theta)2 cos2(theta) = 1 - sin2(theta) + cos2(theta)2 cos2(theta) - 1 = - sin2(theta) + cos2(theta)
How does 1-sin squared x times 1 plus tan suared x equals 1?
Use these identities: sin2(x) + cos2(x) = 1, and tan(x) = sin(x)/cos(x) For clarity, the functions are written here without their arguments (the "of x" part). (1 - sin2) = cos2 (1 + tan2) = (1 + sin2/cos2) = (cos2+sin2) / cos2 = 1/cos2 Multiply them: (cos2) times (1/cos2) = 1'QED'

Show that cos3t equals 4cos cubed t - 3cos t?
cos(3t) = cos(2t + t) = cos(2t)*cos(t) - sin(2t)*sin(t) = [cos2(t) - sin2(t)]*cos(t) - 2*cos(t)*sin(t)*sin(t) = [cos2(t) - sin2(t)]*cos(t) - 2*cos(t)*sin2(t) then, since sin2(t) = 1 - cos2(t) = [2*cos2(t) - 1]*cos(t) - 2*cos(t)*[1 - cos2(t)] = 2*cos3(t) - cos(t) - 2*cos(t) + 2*cos3(t) = 4*cos3(t) - 3*cos(t)
How do you figure out the Trigonometry theorem?
If, by trigonometry theorem you mean the "fundamental theorem of trigonometry," sin2(x) + cos2(x) = 1, it is actually the Pythagorean Theorem. if you have a right triangle with a hypotenuse of one, sin(x) is one leg, and cos(x) is the other. The Pythagorean Theorem states that a2 + b2 = c2 and therefore sin2(x) + cos2(x) = 1.
