Explain why \(\sin 18^{\circ}=\cos 72^{\circ}\). Then using the previous problem, explain why $$ 8 t^{4}-8 t^{2}-t+1=0 $$
Find angles \(u\) and \(v\) such that \(\sin (2 u)=\) \(\sin (2 v)\) but \(|\sin u| \neq|\sin v|\)
Suppose \(\theta\) is not an integer multiple of \(\pi .\) Explain why the point \((1,2 \cos \theta)\) is on the line containing the point \((\sin \theta, \sin (2 \theta))\) and the origin.
Convert the rectangular coordinates given for each point to polar coordinates \(r\) and \(\theta .\) Use radians, and always choose the angle to be in the interval \((-\pi, \pi)\). $$ (3,2) $$
Convert the polar coordinates given for each point to rectangular coordinates in the \(x y\) -plane. $$ r=11, \theta=-\frac{\pi}{6} $$
