Question

If A = 60 and B=60, verify that:

(i) sin (A - B) = sin A cos B - cos A sin B

(ii) cos (A - B) = cos A cos B + sin A sin B

(iii) tan (A - B) = tan Atan B1+tam A tan B

Solution

Given A=60° and B=60°

taking LHS
SIN(60-60) = sin 0°=0

solving RHS
sin A cos B - cos A sin B
=sin 60°cos60° - cos 60°sin60°

taking sin60° common

sin60°(cos 60°-cos 60°) = 0 = LHS
hence verified

(ii)taking LHS
cos (A - B) = cos(60-60) = cos 0 = 1
cos A cos B + sin A sin B

= Cos 60°cos 60° + sin 60°sin 60°

equals cos squared 60 space plus sin squared 60 equals 1 space left parenthesis f r o m space t r i g o n o m e t r i c space i d e n t i t y right parenthesis

RHS = LHS

hence verified


(iii)TAKING LHS

tan (A - B) =tan (60-60)

= tan 0° = 0

SOLVING RHS
fraction numerator tan space 60 space minus tan space 60 over denominator 1 plus tan 60 space tan space 60 end fraction fraction numerator 0 over denominator 1 plus tan space 60 space tan 60 end fraction equals 0 equals L H S h e n c e space v e r i f i e d
