Let’s look at how to use trigonometric identities to calculate missing sides. \({sin~θ} = \frac {opposite} {hypotenuse}\) \({cos~θ} = \frac {adjacent} {hypotenuse ...

If in doubt, \(k\cos (x - \alpha )\) usually works. These worked examples show the processes you'll need to go through to rewrite an expression in this form. Write \(2\sin x^\circ + 5\cos x^\circ ...
