asked 08/11/22Verify the identity. (Simplify at each step.)
I am a bit confused because every time I put in this answer for the blank fill-in it keeps saying it is wrong but shouldn't the answer for the it be cos2(𝛼)?
(1 + cos 𝛼)(1 − cos 𝛼) = sin2 𝛼
(1 + cos 𝛼)(1 − cos 𝛼) = 1 − (cos2𝛼) = sin2𝛼 (Fill-in answer is bolded and underlined)
