Question 95

When θ \theta\,θ is small, cos⁡2θsin⁡θ\displaystyle \frac{\cos 2\theta}{\sin \theta}sinθcos2θ​ can be approximated by 1−2θ2θ\displaystyle \frac{1 - 2\theta^2}{\theta}θ1−2θ2​.

Hence, approximate the value of cos⁡π10sin⁡π20\displaystyle \frac{\cos \frac{\pi}{10}}{\sin \frac{\pi}{20}}sin20π​cos10π​​
