Simplify using trigonometric identities<br> 2sinθ - sin2θ cosθ

Anit [1.1K]

Double angle identity for sine:

$\sin(2x) = 2 \sin(x) \cos(x)$

$\implies 2 \sin(\theta) - \sin(2\theta) \cos(\theta) = 2 \sin(\theta) - 2 \sin(\theta) \cos^2(\theta)$

Factorize the left side.

$2 \sin(\theta) - 2 \sin(\theta) \cos^2(\theta) = 2 \sin(\theta) \left(1 - \cos^2(\theta)\right)$

Pythagorean identity:

$\cos^2(x) + \sin^2(x) = 1$

$\implies 2 \sin(\theta) \left(1 - \cos^2(\theta)\right) = 2 \sin^3(\theta)$

so that

$\boxed{2 \sin(\theta) - \sin(2\theta) \cos(\theta) = 2 \sin^3(\theta)}$

The distributive property can be applied to which expression to factor 12x3 – 9x2 + 4x – 3?

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

(4x - 3)(3x² + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

12x³ - 9x² + 4x - 3 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

= 3x²(4x - 3) + 1(4x - 3) ← factor out (4x - 3) from each term

= (4x - 3)(3x² + 1) ← in factored form
