Find the value of the product.
2 sin 37.5° sin 82.5°
THANKS
there is a formula:
sinAsinB = ½(cos(A-B) - cos(A+B))
Which means 2sinAsinB = cos(A-B) - cos(A+B)
So we can use the formula with A = 82.5° and B = 37.5° as follows:
2 sin 82.5° sin 37.5° = cos(82.5°-37.5°) - cos(82.5°+37.5°)
= cos 45° - cos 120°
= √2/2 - -½
= √2/2 + ½
