Step 1: (7X-2X) + (24-10)
Step 2: 5X + 14</span>
Applying the trig formula: sin a = cos (90 - a)
cos (2x + 8) = sin (x + 37) = cos (90 - x - 37) = cos (53 - x)

Check by calculator.
x = 15 --> sin (x + 37) = sin 52 = 0.788
cos (2x + 8) = cos (38) = 0.788. Proved
x = - 61 --> sin (x + 37) = sin (- 24) = - sin 24 = - 0.407
cos (2x + 8) = cos (-122 + 8) = cos (- 114) = - 0.407. Proved
Your equation is a little messed up comment me the equation you need help with
