prove (5sin(2x))/2 = 5/2 (2sin(x)cos(x))

prove

\frac{5 sin ( 2 x )}{2} = \frac{5}{2} (2 sin (x) cos (x))

True

Solution steps

\frac{5 sin ( 2 x )}{2} = \frac{5}{2} \cdot 2 sin (x) cos (x)

Manipulating right side

\frac{5}{2} 2 sin (x) cos (x)

Rewrite using trig identities

\frac{5}{2} \cdot 2 sin (x) cos (x)

= \frac{5}{2} \cdot 1 \cdot 2 sin (x) cos (x)

Use the Double Angle identity:

2 sin (x) cos (x) = sin (2 x)

= \frac{5}{2} \cdot 1 \cdot sin (2 x)

Simplify

= \frac{5}{2} sin (2 x)

= \frac{5}{2} sin (2 x)

= \frac{5 sin ( 2 x )}{2}

We showed that the two sides could take the same form

\Rightarrow True
