Find: sin(arccos(3/5))

Find the exact value of csc105 degrees

Simplify: sin (x+y) - sin(x-y)

Prove that: sin2x/cotx = 1-cos2x

Find the exact value of sin(x+ pi/3)

I know thats a lot but any help would be amazing!!! I'm awful at this!!

Hello,

$\sin(\arccos(3/5))=\pm \sqrt{1-(3/5)^2}$ (see where arccos 3/5 lies and conclude about the sign of the sine)

Dunno.. have to find out what csc is...

Simplify: sin (x+y) - sin(x-y)

$\sin(x+y)=\sin(x)\cos(y)+\cos(x)\sin(y)$

$\sin(x-y)=\sin(x)\cos(-y)+\cos(x)\sin(-y)$

Prove that: sin2x/cotx = 1-cos2x

$\cot x=\frac{\cos x}{\sin x}$

$\sin 2x=2 \cos x \sin x$

$\Longrightarrow \frac{\sin 2x}{cot x}=2 \sin^2(x)=\dots$

Find the exact value of sin(x+ pi/3)

Use the formula $\sin(x+y)=\sin(x)\cos(y)+\cos(x)\sin(y)$

btw how do you make the pi symbol on here??j

I can try to explain, as far as my knowledge allows me
