The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \( \sin(60^\circ + \theta) - \sin(60^\circ - \theta) = \sin \theta \), we will use the sine addition and subtraction formulas. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Left-Hand Side (LHS)**: We start with the expression on the left-hand side: \[ \sin(60^\circ + \theta) - \sin(60^\circ - \theta) \] 2. **Apply the Sine Addition Formula**: The sine addition formula states that: \[ \sin(a + b) = \sin a \cos b + \cos a \sin b \] For \( a = 60^\circ \) and \( b = \theta \): \[ \sin(60^\circ + \theta) = \sin 60^\circ \cos \theta + \cos 60^\circ \sin \theta \] Substituting the known values: \[ \sin 60^\circ = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}, \quad \cos 60^\circ = \frac{1}{2} \] Thus, \[ \sin(60^\circ + \theta) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \cos \theta + \frac{1}{2} \sin \theta \] 3. **Apply the Sine Subtraction Formula**: The sine subtraction formula states that: \[ \sin(a - b) = \sin a \cos b - \cos a \sin b \] For \( a = 60^\circ \) and \( b = \theta \): \[ \sin(60^\circ - \theta) = \sin 60^\circ \cos \theta - \cos 60^\circ \sin \theta \] Thus, \[ \sin(60^\circ - \theta) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \cos \theta - \frac{1}{2} \sin \theta \] 4. **Substitute Back into the LHS**: Now we substitute both results back into the LHS: \[ \sin(60^\circ + \theta) - \sin(60^\circ - \theta) = \left( \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \cos \theta + \frac{1}{2} \sin \theta \right) - \left( \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \cos \theta - \frac{1}{2} \sin \theta \right) \] 5. **Simplify the Expression**: Simplifying the above expression: \[ = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \cos \theta + \frac{1}{2} \sin \theta - \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \cos \theta + \frac{1}{2} \sin \theta \] The \( \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \cos \theta \) terms cancel out: \[ = \frac{1}{2} \sin \theta + \frac{1}{2} \sin \theta = \sin \theta \] 6. **Final Result**: Thus, we have shown that: \[ \sin(60^\circ + \theta) - \sin(60^\circ - \theta) = \sin \theta \] Therefore, the equation is proved.
