Homework Statement
Express 8.5sin(290t+325) as C1cos(wt)+C2sin(wt)
Homework Equations
The previous parts of the problem actually ask to find the wave equation itself and write it in different forms. So the above wave equation can also be expressed as 8.5cos(290t-125) or as -8.5cos(290t+55) etc.
The Attempt at a Solution
Can I use the following trig identity: A cos (wt) + B sin (wt) = (A^2 + B^2)^1/2 cos (wt + tan^-1 (-B/A)) ?
