Solution

1 - \frac{2 + 3}{2}

Decimal Notation

- 0.86602 \dots

Solution steps

1 - 2 sin^{2} (\frac{7 π}{12})

Rewrite using trig identities:

sin (\frac{7 π}{12}) = \frac{2 ( 3 + 1 )}{4}

sin (\frac{7 π}{12})

Rewrite using trig identities:

sin (\frac{π}{3}) cos (\frac{π}{4}) + cos (\frac{π}{3}) sin (\frac{π}{4})

sin (\frac{7 π}{12})

Write

sin (\frac{7 π}{12})

sin (\frac{π}{3} + \frac{π}{4})

= sin (\frac{π}{3} + \frac{π}{4})

Use the Angle Sum identity:

sin (s + t) = sin (s) cos (t) + cos (s) sin (t)

= sin (\frac{π}{3}) cos (\frac{π}{4}) + cos (\frac{π}{3}) sin (\frac{π}{4})

= sin (\frac{π}{3}) cos (\frac{π}{4}) + cos (\frac{π}{3}) sin (\frac{π}{4})
