Simplify without using the calculator or the sin tables.

1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

sin²(π/8) − cos⁴(3π/8)

Use power reduction formulas:

1/2 (1 − cos(2×π/8)) − 1/8 (3 + 4 cos(2×3π/8) + cos(4×3π/8))

Simplify:

1/2 (1 − cos(π/4)) − 1/8 (3 + 4 cos(3π/4) + cos(3π/2))

1/2 (1 − √2/2) − 1/8 (3 + 4 (-√2/2) + 0)

1/2 − √2/4 − 1/8 (3 − 2√2)

1/2 − √2/4 − 3/8 +√2/4

1/2 − 3/8

1/8

the equation cos(35) =a/25 can be used to find the length of bc what is the length of bc? round to the nearest tenth

this is a good question! i'll do some research and come back when i have the answer!
