Use power-reducing formulas to rewrite and evaluate trigonometric functions. Use half-angle formulas to rewrite and evaluate trigonometric functions. Use product-to-sum and sum-to-product formulas to rewrite and evaluate trigonometric functions. Use trigonometric formulas to rewrite real-life models. Why you should learn it You can use a variety of trigonometric formulas to rewrite trigonometric functions in more convenient forms. For instance, in Exercise 119 on page 417, you can use a double-angle formula to determine at what angle an athlete must throw a javelin. Mark Dadswell/Getty Images Consider having your students prove the double-angle formulas. Doubleangle formulas are often used in calculus. Multiple-Angle Formulas In this section, you will study four other categories of trigonometric identities. 1. The first category involves functions of multiple angles such as sin ku and cos ku.. The second category involves squares of trigonometric functions such as sin u. 3. The third category involves functions of half-angles such as sinu. 4. The fourth category involves products of trigonometric functions such as sin u cos v. You should learn the double-angle formulas because they are used often in trigonometry and calculus. For proofs of the formulas, see Proofs in Mathematics on page 45. Double-Angle Formulas sin u sin u cos u tan u Example 1 Solving a Multiple-Angle Equation Solve cos x sin x 0. Begin by rewriting the equation so that it involves functions of x rather than x. Then factor and solve as usual. cos x 0 and 1 sin x 0 x, 3 So, the general solution is tan u 1 tan u cos x sin x cos x 0 cos x sin x 0 cos x1 sin x 0 x 3 cos u cos u sin u cos u 1 1 sin u Write original equation. Double-angle formula Factor. Set factors equal to zero. s in 0, x n and x 3 n where n is an integer. Try verifying these solutions graphically. Now try Exercise 9.

2 3330_0505.qxd 1/5/05 9:06 AM Page Chapter 5 Analytic Trigonometry Example Using Double-Angle Formulas to Analyze Graphs Use a double-angle formula to rewrite the equation y 4 cos x. Then sketch the graph of the equation over the interval 0,. y y = 4 cos x Using the double-angle formula for cos u, you can rewrite the original equation as y 4 cos x cos x 1 cos x. Write original equation. Factor. Use double-angle formula. 1 π π x Using the techniques discussed in Section 4.5, you can recognize that the graph of this function has an amplitude of and a period of. The key points in the interval 0, are as follows. 1 FIGURE 5.9 Maximum Intercept Minimum Intercept Maximum 0, 3, 4, 0, 4, 0 Two cycles of the graph are shown in Figure 5.9. Now try Exercise 1. Example 3 Evaluating Functions Involving Double Angles 4 y (5, 1) x Use the following to find sin, cos, and tan. cos 5 13, < < From Figure 5.10, you can see that sin yr 113. Consequently, using each of the double-angle formulas, you can write sin cos tan 3 sin cos cos sin 10 cos 119. FIGURE 5.10 Now try Exercise 3. The double-angle formulas are not restricted to angles and. Other double combinations, such as and or and 3, are also valid. Here are two examples. 4 6 sin 4 sin cos and cos 6 cos 3 sin 3 By using double-angle formulas together with the sum formulas given in the preceding section, you can form other multiple-angle formulas.

Power-Reducing Formulas The double-angle formulas can be used to obtain the following power-reducing formulas. Example 5 shows a typical power reduction that is used in calculus. Power-reducing formulas are often used in calculus. Power-Reducing Formulas sin u 1 cos u cos u 1 cos u tan u 1 cos u 1 cos u For a proof of the power-reducing formulas, see Proofs in Mathematics on page 45. Example 5 Reducing a Power Rewrite sin 4 x as a sum of first powers of the cosines of multiple angles. Note the repeated use of power-reducing formulas. sin 4 x sin x 1 cos x Property of exponents Power-reducing formula cos x cos x 1 1 cos 4x 1 cos x 4 Expand. Power-reducing formula cos x cos 4x 8 Distributive Property cos x cos 4x 8 Factor out common factor. Now try Exercise 9.

4 3330_0505.qxd 1/5/05 9:06 AM Page Chapter 5 Analytic Trigonometry Half-Angle Formulas You can derive some useful alternative forms of the power-reducing formulas by replacing u with u. The results are called half-angle formulas. Half-Angle Formulas sin u ± 1 cos u cos u ± 1 cos u tan u 1 cos u sin u sin u 1 cos u u The signs of sin u and cos u depend on the quadrant in which lies. Example 6 Using a Half-Angle Formula To find the exact value of a trigonometric function with an angle measure in form using a half-angle formula, first convert the angle measure to decimal degree form. Then multiply the resulting angle measure by. DMS Find the exact value of sin 105. Begin by noting that 105 is half of 10. Then, using the half-angle formula for sinu and the fact that 105 lies in Quadrant II, you have sin cos 10 1 cos The positive square root is chosen because sin is positive in Quadrant II. Now try Exercise 41. Use your calculator to verify the result obtained in Example 6. That is, evaluate sin 105 and 3. sin You can see that both values are approximately

Graphical Use a graphing utility set in radian mode to graph y sin x cos x, as shown in Figure Use the zero or root feature or the zoom and trace features to approximate the x-intercepts in the interval 0, to be x 0, x and x ,. These values are the approximate solutions of sin x cos x 0 in the interval 0,. 1 FIGURE y = sin x cos x ( ) Product-to-Sum Formulas A common error is to write cos x as cos x, rather than to use the correct identity cos x 1 cos x. Each of the following product-to-sum formulas is easily verified using the sum and difference formulas discussed in the preceding section. Product-to-Sum Formulas sin u sin v 1 cosu v cosu v cos u cos v 1 cosu v cosu v sin u cos v 1 sinu v sinu v cos u sin v 1 sinu v sinu v Product-to-sum formulas are used in calculus to evaluate integrals involving the products of sines and cosines of two different angles.

Using the appropriate product-to-sum formula, you obtain cos 5x sin 4x 1 sin5x 4x sin5x 4x 1 sin 9x 1 sin x. Now try Exercise 67. Occasionally, it is useful to reverse the procedure and write a sum of trigonometric functions as a product. This can be accomplished with the following sum-to-product formulas. Activities 1.

Write original equation. Sum-to-product formula Simplify. By setting the factor sin 4x equal to zero, you can find that the solutions in the interval 0, are x 0, 4,, 3 4,, 5 4, 3, 7 4. The equation cos x 0 yields no additional solutions, and you can conclude that the solutions are of the form x n 4 sin 5x sin 3x 0 5x 3x sin cos 5x 3x 0 sin 4x cos x 0 where n is an integer. You can confirm this graphically by sketching the graph of y sin 5x sin 3x, as shown in Figure 5.1. From the graph you can see that the x-intercepts occur at multiples of 4. Now try Exercise 87.

At what angle must the player kick the football so that the football travels 00 feet? c. For what angle is the horizontal distance the football travels a maximum? a. You can use a double-angle formula to rewrite the projectile motion model as r 1 3 v 0 sin cos 1 3 v 0 sin. Rewrite original projectile motion model. Rewrite model using a double-angle formula. b. r 1 Write projectile motion model. 3 v 0 sin v sin Substitute 00 for r and 80 for v sin Simplify. 1 sin Divide each side by 00., 4. You know that so dividing this result by produces Because 4 45, you can conclude that the player must kick the football at an angle of 45 so that the football will travel 00 feet. c. From the model r 00 sin you can see that the amplitude is 00. So the maximum range is r 00 feet. From part (b), you know that this corresponds to an angle of 45. Therefore, kicking the football at an angle of 45 will produce a maximum horizontal distance of 00 feet. Now try Exercise 119.
