Double Angle Properties for Trigonometry

Use the rules above to solve the questions listed below. For the following exercises, do not solve for x but find the exact values of

  1. sin(2π‘₯)
  2. cos(2x)
  3. tan(2x)

5. If sin π‘₯ = 1/8, and π‘₯ is in quadrant I.

6. If cos π‘₯ = 2/3, and π‘₯ is in quadrant I.

7. If cos π‘₯ = βˆ’1/2, and π‘₯ is in quadrant III.

8. If tan π‘₯ = βˆ’8, and π‘₯ is in quadrant IV.

For the following exercises, find the values of  sin (2πœƒ), cos (2πœƒ), tan (2πœƒ), cot (2πœƒ), sec (2πœƒ), csc (2πœƒ) if the conditions provided hold.

9. cos (2πœƒ) = 3/5 and 90Β° ≀ πœƒ ≀ 180Β°

10. cos (2πœƒ) = 1/2 and 180Β° ≀ πœƒ ≀ 270Β°
