Answer:

\frac{\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2}  }{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the difference formula for cosine and the exact values

cos45° = sin45° = \frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}, cos30° = \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}, sin30° = \frac{1}{2}

cos(a - b) = cosacosb + sinasinb

Note 15° = 45° - 30°, thus

cos15°

= cos(45 - 30)°

= cos45°cos30° + sin45°sin30°

= (\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} × \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} ) + (\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} × \frac{1}{2} )

= \frac{\sqrt{6} }{4} + \frac{\sqrt{2} }{4}

= \frac{\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2}  }{4}

5q - p + p + 1, please help!
Mamont248 [21]
So basically you just add the like terms to simplify the equation. You have 5q-p+p+1 you can cancel out the both p’s because one is negative and one is positive. That leaves you with 5q + 1 they are not like terms so you cannot simplify them so your simplified equation is 5q +1
