EXAMPLE 1 Evaluate trigonometric expressions

Find the exact value of (a) cos 165° and (b) tan .π12

a. cos 165° 12

= cos (330°)

= – 1 + cos 330°2

= –1 +

EXAMPLE 2 Evaluate trigonometric expressions

Given cos a = with < a < 2π, find (a) sin 2a and

(b) sin .

a2

SOLUTION

a. Using a Pythagorean identity gives sin a 1213

= – .

sin 2a = 2 sin a cos a 1213

513

= 2(– )( ) 120169

= –

b. Because is in Quadrant II,a2

a2

sin is positive.

sin = 1 – cos a2

= 1 –

EXAMPLE 3 Standardized Test Practice

SOLUTION

sin 21 – cos 2

Use double-angle formulas.=2 sin cos

1 – (1 – 2 sin2)

Simplify denominator.=2 sin cos

2 sin2

Divide out common factor 2 sin .=cos

sinUse cotangent identity.= cot

ANSWER The correct answer is B.
