cos(60-225)

cos (6 0^{\circ} - 22 5^{\circ})

\frac{- 6 - 2}{4}

Solution steps

cos (6 0^{\circ} - 22 5^{\circ})

Simplify

= cos (- 16 5^{\circ})

Use the following property:

cos (- x) = cos (x)

cos (- 16 5^{\circ}) = cos (16 5^{\circ})

= cos (16 5^{\circ})

Rewrite using trig identities:

cos (13 5^{\circ}) cos (3 0^{\circ}) - sin (13 5^{\circ}) sin (3 0^{\circ})

= cos (13 5^{\circ}) cos (3 0^{\circ}) - sin (13 5^{\circ}) sin (3 0^{\circ})

Use the following trivial identity:

cos (13 5^{\circ}) = - \frac{2}{2}

Use the following trivial identity:

cos (3 0^{\circ}) = \frac{3}{2}

Use the following trivial identity:

sin (13 5^{\circ}) = \frac{2}{2}

Use the following trivial identity:

sin (3 0^{\circ}) = \frac{1}{2}

= (- \frac{2}{2}) \frac{3}{2} - \frac{2}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{2}

Simplify

(- \frac{2}{2}) \frac{3}{2} - \frac{2}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{2} : \frac{- 6 - 2}{4}

= \frac{- 6 - 2}{4}

arcsin (0.625)

arctan (40)

80 sin (4 0^{\circ})

sin (arcsin (- \frac{2}{2}))

sin (4 5^{\circ}) - cos (4 5^{\circ})
