Re: trig identities

Hi kfarnan;

This is your third post on the same subject. Are you getting to understand this better? Please show me what work you have done on this.

Hi;

Please post problems that you know the answer to in Exercises. The Help Me is for people who need immediate help with something, that way they can get help quickly.

I understand the process. thanks..

How about putting your answer down then as a means to educating me. I love looking at how other people
solve problems.
