Capitolo 3, Problema 18
Write each expression as the sine, cosine, or tangent of a double angle. Then find the exact value of the expression. cos² 105° - sin² 105°
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Recognize that the expression \( \cos^2 105^\circ - \sin^2 105^\circ \) matches the form of the cosine double-angle identity: \( \cos 2\theta = \cos^2 \theta - \sin^2 \theta \).
Rewrite the given expression using the double-angle identity: \( \cos^2 105^\circ - \sin^2 105^\circ = \cos(2 \times 105^\circ) \).
Calculate the angle inside the cosine function: \( 2 \times 105^\circ = 210^\circ \), so the expression becomes \( \cos 210^\circ \).
Recall the exact value of \( \cos 210^\circ \) by considering its reference angle and quadrant. The reference angle is \( 210^\circ - 180^\circ = 30^\circ \), and since 210° is in the third quadrant where cosine is negative, \( \cos 210^\circ = -\cos 30^\circ \).
Use the exact value \( \cos 30^\circ = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \) to write \( \cos 210^\circ = -\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \).

Double-Angle Identities
Double-angle identities express trigonometric functions of twice an angle in terms of functions of the original angle. For cosine, the identity cos(2θ) = cos²θ - sin²θ directly relates to the given expression, allowing simplification by recognizing the pattern.

Double Angle Identities
Exact Values of Trigonometric Functions
Exact values refer to precise trigonometric values for special angles, often expressed in terms of square roots and fractions. Knowing or deriving exact values for angles like 105° (which can be expressed as 60° + 45°) is essential for finding the exact value of the expression.
