To prove that \( \cos(\alpha + \beta) = \frac{b^2 - a^2}{a^2 + b^2} \) given that \( \sin \alpha + \sin \beta = a \) and \( \cos \alpha + \cos \beta = b \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Square the equations Starting with the given equations, we square both sides. 1. \( \sin \alpha + \sin \beta = a \) \[ (\sin \alpha + \sin \beta)^2 = a^2 ...
