Simplify sin(arcsin(x)+arccos(x))
Problem
Solution
Identify the trigonometric identity for the sum of two angles, which states
sin(α+β)=sin(α)*cos(β)+cos(α)*sin(β) Assign the variables
α=arcsin(x) andβ=arccos(x) Apply the definitions of inverse trigonometric functions, noting that
sin(arcsin(x))=x andcos(arccos(x))=x forx in the domain[−1,1] Determine the remaining terms using the Pythagorean identity
cos(arcsin(x))=√(,1−x2) andsin(arccos(x))=√(,1−x2) Substitute these values into the sum identity:
Simplify the resulting expression:
