Question 11 Mark
$\sin 36^{\circ}=\frac{\sqrt{10-2 \sqrt{5}}}{4}$
Answer
We know that, $\sin ^2 \theta=1-\cos ^2 \theta$
$\begin{aligned}
& \sin ^2 36^{\circ}=1-\cos ^2 36^{\circ} \\
& =1-\left(\frac{\sqrt{5}+1}{4}\right)^2 \\
& =\frac{16-(5+1+2 \sqrt{5})}{16} \\
& =\frac{10-2 \sqrt{5}}{16} \\
& \therefore \sin 36^{\circ}=\frac{\sqrt{10-2 \sqrt{5}}}{4} \ldots \ldots\left[\because \sin 36^{\circ} \text { is positive }\right]
\end{aligned}$

Question 151 Mark
Express the following as a sum or difference of two trigonometric functions : $2 \cos 35^{\circ} \cos 75^{\circ}$
Answer
$2 \cos 35^{\circ} \cos 75^{\circ}$
$\begin{aligned}
& =\cos \left(35^{\circ}+75^{\circ}\right)+\cos \left(35^{\circ}-75^{\circ}\right) \\
& =\cos 110^{\circ}+\cos (-40)^{\circ} \\
& =\cos 110^{\circ}+\cos 40^{\circ} \ldots[\because \cos (-\theta)=\cos \theta]
