2sin(pi/3)cos(pi/4)

2 sin (\frac{π}{3}) cos (\frac{π}{4})

\frac{3}{2}

Decimal

1.22474 \dots

Solution steps

2 sin (\frac{π}{3}) cos (\frac{π}{4})

Use the following trivial identity:

sin (\frac{π}{3}) = \frac{3}{2}

sin (\frac{π}{3})

sin (x)

periodicity table with

2 πn

cycle:

x 0 \frac{π}{6} \frac{π}{4} \frac{π}{3} \frac{π}{2} \frac{2 π}{3} \frac{3 π}{4} \frac{5 π}{6} sin (x) 0 \frac{1}{2} \frac{2}{2} \frac{3}{2} 1 \frac{3}{2} \frac{2}{2} \frac{1}{2} x π \frac{7 π}{6} \frac{5 π}{4} \frac{4 π}{3} \frac{3 π}{2} \frac{5 π}{3} \frac{7 π}{4} \frac{11 π}{6} sin (x) 0 - \frac{1}{2} - \frac{2}{2} - \frac{3}{2} - 1 - \frac{3}{2} - \frac{2}{2} - \frac{1}{2}

= \frac{3}{2}

Use the following trivial identity:

cos (\frac{π}{4}) = \frac{2}{2}

cos (\frac{π}{4})

cos (x)

2 πn

cycle:

x 0 \frac{π}{6} \frac{π}{4} \frac{π}{3} \frac{π}{2} \frac{2 π}{3} \frac{3 π}{4} \frac{5 π}{6} cos (x) 1 \frac{3}{2} \frac{2}{2} \frac{1}{2} 0 - \frac{1}{2} - \frac{2}{2} - \frac{3}{2} x π \frac{7 π}{6} \frac{5 π}{4} \frac{4 π}{3} \frac{3 π}{2} \frac{5 π}{3} \frac{7 π}{4} \frac{11 π}{6} cos (x) - 1 - \frac{3}{2} - \frac{2}{2} - \frac{1}{2} 0 \frac{1}{2} \frac{2}{2} \frac{3}{2}

= \frac{2}{2}

= 2 \cdot \frac{3}{2} \cdot \frac{2}{2}

Simplify

2 \cdot \frac{3}{2} \cdot \frac{2}{2} : \frac{3}{2}

2 \cdot \frac{3}{2} \cdot \frac{2}{2}

Multiply fractions:

a \cdot \frac{b}{c} \cdot \frac{d}{e} = \frac{a \cdot b \cdot d}{c \cdot e}

= \frac{3 2 \cdot 2}{2 \cdot 2}

Cancel the common factor:

2

= \frac{3 2}{2}

Apply radical rule:

2 = 2^{\frac{1}{2}}

= \frac{3 \cdot 2 ^{\frac{1}{2}}}{2}

Apply exponent rule:

\frac{x ^{a}}{x ^{b}} = \frac{1}{x ^{b - a}}

\frac{2 ^{\frac{1}{2}}}{2 ^{1}} = \frac{1}{2 ^{1 - \frac{1}{2}}}

= \frac{3}{2 ^{1 - \frac{1}{2}}}

Subtract the numbers:

1 - \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{2}

= \frac{3}{2 ^{\frac{1}{2}}}

Apply radical rule:

2^{\frac{1}{2}} = 2

= \frac{3}{2}

Combine same powers :

\frac{x}{y} = \frac{x}{y}

= \frac{3}{2}

= \frac{3}{2}
