Question #02a6f Algebra Systems of Equations and Inequalities Systems Using Substitution 1 Answer Ratnaker Mehta Feb 6, 2017 To be contd............. Explanation: We use, #a^3+b^3=(a+b)(a^2-ab+b^2)# to get, #(costheta)^6+(sintheta)^6=cos^6theta+sin^6theta# #=(cos^2theta+sin^2theta)(cos^4theta-cos^2thetasin^2theta+sin^4theta)# #=(1){(cos^2theta+sin^2theta)^2-2sin^2thetacos^2theta-cos^2thetasin^2theta}# #=1-3cos^2thetasin^2theta# #=1-3/4(2sinthetacostheta)^2# #=1-3/4(sin2theta)^2# #=1-3/4(sin^2(2theta))# Recall that, #1-cos2A=2sin^2A#. Hence, the Exp.#=1-3/8{2sin^2(2theta)}# #=1-3/8(1-cos4theta)# #=1-3/8+3/8cos4theta# #=5/8+3/8cos4theta# Answer link Related questions How do you solve systems of equations using the substitution method?
