Question
Verify that \sin 3\theta =4\sin \theta \cdotp \sin(60\degree -\theta )\cdotp \sin(60+\theta )
Verify that \sin 3\theta =4\sin \theta \cdotp \sin(60\degree -\theta )\cdotp \sin(60+\theta )
Using product to sum identity
\sin \alpha\sin \beta = \dfrac{1}{2} [\cos(\alpha-\beta ) - \cos(\alpha + \beta) ]
4\sin \theta \cdotp \sin(60\degree -\theta )\cdotp \sin(60+\theta )
=2\sin \theta (\cos2\theta -\cos 120\degree )
=2\sin \theta (\cos2\theta+\dfrac{1}{2} )
=2\sin \theta (\dfrac{3}{2}-2\sin^2 \theta )
=3\sin \theta -4\sin^3 \theta
=\sin 3\theta
