	Solve for theta		2014-04-25
		From ALASTAIR: Hi, The question asks Solve for 'theta' cos2theta=sintheta x costheta. Substituting for cos2th either 1-2sin^2th or 2cos^2th does not give an equation in either sine or cosine alone how do I solve this please? Answered by Penny Nom.

	cos(3X)		2006-03-29
		From Joshua: I'm having trouble proving that cos(3X)=cos3X -(cosX)(sin2 X) Answered by Penny Nom.
	sin(3A)		2004-10-20
		From A student: Express sin3A in terms of sinA and cosA. Answered by Penny Nom.
	Some trig expressions		2004-05-23
		From A student: Prove: sin A + sin B = 2sin(A+B/2)cos(A-B/2) cos A - cos B = -2sin(A+B/2)sin(A-B/2) cos A + cos B = 2cos(A+B/2)cos(A-B/2) sin A - sin B = 2cos(A+B/2)sin(A+B/2) Answered by Penny Nom.
	A rule with a variable		2003-08-24
		From Crystal: what is a rule with a variable Answered by Penny Nom.
	The area of a circle		2002-06-03
		From Jessica: I am doing a maths assigment for university, which is aimed towrds primary school students(k-6). I was wondering if you could give me some information as to how I could describe to students the rule for finding the area of circle, using a circle cut up into equal sectors (like a pizza). I know it has something to do with the fact that you can make these shapes into a parallelogram, but I am a bit uncertain as to how I can express this idea clearly and articulately to students. Answered by Penny Nom.
	sin 2x = cos 3x		2002-02-25
		From Allan: solve: sin 2x = cos 3x Primary question: how do you handle the cos 3x? Answered by Paul Betts and Chris Fisher.
	Rewriting and evaluating formulas		2001-11-19
		From A conserned mother: Due to the wide range of temperatures experienced in Canada, engineers who construct roads must allow for expansion and contraction of the road surface. The following formula is used to calculate the amount of expansion E to allow for: E= kL(T-t), where k is the constant of expansion for the road surface. L is the length of the section of highway in metres. T is the temperature of the air in degrees Celsius. t is the temperature, in degress Celsius, at which the section of the highway was constructed. Answered by Walter Whiteley.
	Triple angle formula		2000-02-23
		From Sara: Can one derive a triple angle formula for sine and cosine? If so, how? Answered by Chris Fisher.
	A Trigonometry Question		1999-08-28
		From Diane Simms: My question is can the following be factored. I am a teacher who needs the factors to this right away. 2 Sin2X + 2 SinX CosX - 1= 0 Answered by Harley Weston.
	Equivalent Expressions		1997-02-26
		From Karyn Jones: Josie says that s=n/(n+1) and s/(1-s)=n are two ways to write the same formula. Describe whether or not you agree with Joise. Explain how you made your decision. Answered by Walter Whiteley and Penny Nom.
