prove sin(180-θ)=sin(θ)

prove

sin (18 0^{\circ} - θ) = sin (θ)

True

Solution steps

sin (18 0^{\circ} - θ) = sin (θ)

Manipulating left side

sin (18 0^{\circ} - θ)

Rewrite using trig identities

sin (18 0^{\circ} - θ)

Use the Angle Difference identity:

sin (s - t) = sin (s) cos (t) - cos (s) sin (t)

= sin (18 0^{\circ}) cos (θ) - cos (18 0^{\circ}) sin (θ)

Simplify

sin (18 0^{\circ}) cos (θ) - cos (18 0^{\circ}) sin (θ) : sin (θ)

sin (18 0^{\circ}) cos (θ) - cos (18 0^{\circ}) sin (θ)

sin (18 0^{\circ}) cos (θ) = 0

sin (18 0^{\circ}) cos (θ)

Simplify

sin (18 0^{\circ}) : 0

sin (18 0^{\circ})

Use the following trivial identity:

sin (18 0^{\circ}) = 0

sin (x)

= 0

= 0 \cdot cos (θ)

Apply rule

0 \cdot a = 0

= 0

cos (18 0^{\circ}) sin (θ) = - sin (θ)

cos (18 0^{\circ}) sin (θ)

Simplify

cos (18 0^{\circ}) : - 1

cos (18 0^{\circ})

Use the following trivial identity:

cos (18 0^{\circ}) = (- 1)

cos (x)

periodicity table with

36 0^{\circ} n

cycle:

x 0 3 0^{\circ} 4 5^{\circ} 6 0^{\circ} 9 0^{\circ} 12 0^{\circ} 13 5^{\circ} 15 0^{\circ} cos (x) 1 \frac{3}{2} \frac{2}{2} \frac{1}{2} 0 - \frac{1}{2} - \frac{2}{2} - \frac{3}{2} x 18 0^{\circ} 21 0^{\circ} 22 5^{\circ} 24 0^{\circ} 27 0^{\circ} 30 0^{\circ} 31 5^{\circ} 33 0^{\circ} cos (x) - 1 - \frac{3}{2} - \frac{2}{2} - \frac{1}{2} 0 \frac{1}{2} \frac{2}{2} \frac{3}{2}

= - 1

= - 1 \cdot sin (θ)

Multiply:

1 \cdot sin (θ) = sin (θ)

= - sin (θ)

= 0 - (- sin (θ))

Refine

= sin (θ)

= sin (θ)

= sin (θ)

We showed that the two sides could take the same form

\Rightarrow True

2 cot^{2} (x) sin^{2} (x) = 1 + 2 cos (x)

\frac{sin ( a )}{1 + cos ( a )} + cot (a) = csc (a)

(cos (x) + sin (x)) 2 = 1 + 2 sin (x) cos (x)

cos (x) = cos^{2} (\frac{x}{2}) - sin^{2} (\frac{x}{2})

sin (y) tan (y) = cos (y)
