Question 1
a.

Use the identity for sin⁡(A+B)\sin(A + B)sin(A+B) to express sin⁡2A \sin 2A\,sin2A in terms of sin⁡A \sin A\,sinA and cos⁡A\cos AcosA.

[2]
b.

Use the identity for cos⁡(A+B)\cos(A + B)cos(A+B) to express cos⁡2A \cos 2A\,cos2A in terms of sin⁡A \sin A\,sinA and cos⁡A\cos AcosA.

[2]
ci.

Hence, express cos⁡2A \cos 2A\,cos2A in terms of cos⁡A\cos AcosA.

[2]
cii.

Hence, express cos⁡2A \cos 2A\,cos2A in terms of sin⁡A\sin AsinA.

[2]
d.
