Model Problem Use the identity for the cosine of the difference of two angle measures to prove that cos (180º – x) = -cos x. cos (A – B) = cos A cos B + sin A sin B Substitute 180 for A and x for B: cos (180 – x) = cos 180 cos x + sin 180 sin x simplify: cos (180 – x) = -1 cos x + 0 sin x cos (180 – x) = -cos x

4. Aim: Cosine of Two Angles  Course: Alg. 2 & Trig. Model Problem If sin A = 3/5 and  A is in QII, and cos B = 5/13 and  B is in QI, find cos (A – B). cos (A – B) = cos A cos B + sin A sin B to use this you need to know both sine and cosine values for both A and B. HOW? Pythagorean Identity sin 2 A + cos 2 A = 1sin 2 B + cos 2 B = 1 (3/5) 2 + cos 2 A = 1 sin 2 B + (5/13) 2 = 1 9/25 + cos 2 A = 1sin 2 B + 25/169 = 1 cos 2 A = 16/25 cos A = 4/5 sin 2 B = 144/169 sin B = 12/13 QIIcos A = -4/5QI
