Part A: Select TWO examples of solutions to trig identities from the Content section (Examples or Check your Understanding) or from Assignment 1 Solutions. post on the image pick two question.
Annotate the solution for the example explaining the steps.
Refer to the Tips for Solving Trigonometric Identities from the Content section.
Part B: Make up your OWN identity. Start with a trigonometric expression, and apply substitutions and algebraic processes to create equivalent expressions. Note that this is NOT the same as proving an existing trig identity.
Justify each step. Verify your identity graphically and algebraically.
