I'm kinda stuck on these three identity Questions: Could you explain how to solve these to me. Please and Thankyou.
:D
6. Find the exact value of sin 2 ? given that cos ? = 12/13 and ? is in Quadrant I.
a. -120/169
b. 120/169
c. 60/169
d. -60/169

8. Find the value of the tan of a/2 given that cos a = -4/5 and a is in Quadrant II.
a. 3
b. 1/2
c. -2
d. -1/2

14. Evaluate sin 165 ° + sin 105 ° .

6) sin(2θ) = 2sin(θ)cos(θ)\displaystyle 6) \ sin(2\theta) \ = \ 2sin(\theta)cos(\theta)

8) tan(a2) = 1cos(a)sin(a)\displaystyle 8) \ tan\bigg(\frac{a}{2}\bigg) \ = \ \frac{1-cos(a)}{sin(a)}

14) sin(u)+sin(v) = 2sin(u+v2)cos(uv2)\displaystyle 14) \ sin(u)+sin(v) \ = \ 2sin\bigg(\frac{u+v}{2}\bigg)cos\bigg(\frac{u-v}{2}\bigg)
