sin(150)+cos(240)-tan(315)

Solution

sin (15 0^{\circ}) + cos (24 0^{\circ}) - tan (31 5^{\circ})

Solution

1

Solution steps

sin (15 0^{\circ}) + cos (24 0^{\circ}) - tan (31 5^{\circ})

tan (31 5^{\circ}) = tan (13 5^{\circ})

tan (31 5^{\circ})

Rewrite

31 5^{\circ}

18 0^{\circ} + 13 5^{\circ}

= tan (18 0^{\circ} + 13 5^{\circ})

Apply the periodicity of

tan

tan (x + 18 0^{\circ}) = tan (x)

tan (18 0^{\circ} + 13 5^{\circ}) = tan (13 5^{\circ})

= tan (13 5^{\circ})

= sin (15 0^{\circ}) + cos (24 0^{\circ}) - tan (13 5^{\circ})

Rewrite using trig identities:

cos (24 0^{\circ}) = 1 - 2 sin^{2} (12 0^{\circ})

cos (24 0^{\circ})

Write

cos (24 0^{\circ})

cos (2 \cdot 12 0^{\circ})

= cos (2 \cdot 12 0^{\circ})

Use the Double Angle identity:

cos (2 x) = 1 - 2 sin^{2} (x)

= 1 - 2 sin^{2} (12 0^{\circ})

= sin (15 0^{\circ}) + 1 - 2 sin^{2} (12 0^{\circ}) - tan (13 5^{\circ})

Use the following trivial identity:

sin (15 0^{\circ}) = \frac{1}{2}
