prove sin^2(wt)=(1-cos(2wt))/2

prove

sin^{2} (wt) = \frac{1 - cos ( 2 wt )}{2}

True

Solution steps

sin^{2} (wt) = \frac{1 - cos ( 2 wt )}{2}

Manipulating right side

\frac{1 - cos ( 2 wt )}{2}

Rewrite using trig identities

\frac{1 - cos ( 2 wt )}{2}

Use the Double Angle identity:

cos (2 x) = 1 - 2 sin^{2} (x)

= \frac{1 - ( 1 - 2 sin ^{2} ( tw ) )}{2}

Simplify

\frac{1 - ( 1 - 2 sin ^{2} ( tw ) )}{2} : sin^{2} (wt)

\frac{1 - ( 1 - 2 sin ^{2} ( tw ) )}{2}

Expand

1 - (1 - 2 sin^{2} (tw)) : 2 sin^{2} (wt)

1 - (1 - 2 sin^{2} (tw))

= 1 - (1 - 2 sin^{2} (wt))

- (1 - 2 sin^{2} (tw)) : - 1 + 2 sin^{2} (tw)

- (1 - 2 sin^{2} (tw))

Distribute parentheses

= - (1) - (- 2 sin^{2} (tw))

Apply minus-plus rules

- (- a) = a, - (a) = - a

= - 1 + 2 sin^{2} (tw)

= 1 - 1 + 2 sin^{2} (tw)

1 - 1 = 0

= 2 sin^{2} (wt)

= \frac{2 sin ^{2} ( wt )}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{2}{2} = 1

= sin^{2} (wt)

= sin^{2} (wt)

= sin^{2} (wt)

We showed that the two sides could take the same form

\Rightarrow True
