By applying <em>trigonometric</em> expression and <em>direct</em> comparison, we conclude that a = 2 such cos 255° - cos 195° = √a / 2
<h3>How to analyze a trigonometric expression</h3>
In this question we need to simplify a <em>trigonometric</em> expression in order to find the value of a. In this case, we need to use the following formula:
Then,
cos 255° - cos 195° = - 2 · sin 225° · sin 30°
cos 255° - cos 195° = - 2 · sin (- 135°) · sin 30°
cos 255° - cos 195° = 2 · sin 135° · sin 30°
cos 255° - cos 195° = 2 · (√2 / 2) · (1/2)
cos 255° - cos 195° = √2 / 2
Then, by <em>direct</em> comparison we find that a = 2.
