lawrences blog

im doing this blog on chapter 10 section 1. this chapter took me a little while to get but now i know how to do it and it is easy. it is really simple. you have to know the formulas and you have to know the trig chart. everything from chapter 7 and on you better know or you will be beat down by b-rob with her tests.

formulas:

cos(alpha +/- beta) cos alpha cos beta -/+ sin alpha sin beta

sin(alpha +/- beta) sin alpha cos beta +/- cos alspha sin beta

aplha and beta come from the trig chart and add or subtract to get the angle you are looking for

examples:

1)
cos(75)

alpha 45
cos 30

sin(45+30)= sin45 cos30- cos45 sin30

=square root of2/2 (square root of 2/2)- square root of 2/2(1/2)

square root of6/4- square root of 2/4

= square root of 6-2 all over 4 (final answer)

this is what i learned from chapter 10 section 1. hope this helps some people
