    Undergrad Solving for Sin(π/12): How Do I Get (π/3-π/4)?

    Now I feel dumb. Amazing how the simple things elude you. Once i looked at it from a basic perspective instead of trying to over analyze it was plain and simple. Thanks.

    Undergrad Solving for Sin(π/12): How Do I Get (π/3-π/4)?

    In then math course I am taking it is giving the example of using compound angle formulas to solve sin(pi/12). The solution in the formula says that it is (pi/3-pi/4). I don't understand how pi/12 is equal to (pi/3-pi/4). What am I missing in this solution?

    High School Volume of Prism: Length & Width (y^3-y, y-1)

    I have it set up as: y(y-1)(y+1)=lw(y-1) which I then divide by (y-1) to get y(y+1)=lw and then I am stuck

    High School Volume of Prism: Length & Width (y^3-y, y-1)

    if a swimming pool has a volume of y^3-y and a height of y-1 then what is the length and width?
