Question 4
a.

By writing sin⁡3θ \sin 3\theta\,sin3θ as sin⁡(2θ+θ)\sin(2\theta + \theta)sin(2θ+θ), show that sin⁡3θ=3sin⁡θ−4sin⁡3θ\sin 3\theta = 3\sin\theta - 4\sin^3\thetasin3θ=3sinθ−4sin3θ

[2]
b.

Solve, for 0≤θ≤π0 \leq \theta \leq \pi0≤θ≤π, the equation,

3sin⁡θ−4sin⁡3θ=0.5 3\sin\theta - 4\sin^3\theta = 0.5 3sinθ−4sin3θ=0.5

Give your answers in terms of π\piπ.
