A student uses the following steps to prove the sine sum identity. The proof is incorrect. Which steps is incorrect

Respuesta :

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

The incorrect step is Step 4, cos (π/2 -x) cos(-y) + sin (π/2 -x)sin(-y), the correct option is C.

What is Trigonometric Identity?

Trigonometric Identities are based on the trigonometric ratios used to solve Trigonometric equations.

The steps used to solve the trigonometric identity are :

Step 1 :  sin(x+y)

Step 2: cos ((π/2) - (x+y))

Step 3 : cos ( (π/2 -x) -y)

Step 4 : cos (π/2 -x) cosy + sin (π/2 -x)siny

Step 5: sinxcosy+cosxsiny

Therefore,the correct step is cos (π/2 -x) cosy + sin (π/2 -x)siny  and not cos (π/2 -x) cos(-y) + sin (π/2 -x)sin(-y) , the incorrect step is Step 4.
