Solving trigonometric equation

AI Thread Summary
To solve the trigonometric equation starting from sin C = 2/√29, the key is recognizing that C = 1/2 sin^(-1)(20/29) is equivalent to sin(2C) = 20/29. This relationship allows for the transformation of the equation into a more manageable form. The hints provided emphasize the connection between the sine function and its inverse. The discussion concludes with the participant confirming their understanding of the solution.

This is part of the identity proving question .

from \sin C=\frac{2}{\sqrt{29}} , how can i reach C=\frac{1}{2}\sin^{-1} (\frac{20}{29}) ?

Hi thereddevils! :smile:

(have a square-root: √ and try using the X2 tag just above the Reply box :wink:)

Hint: C = 1/2 sin-1 20/29 is the same as sin2C = 20/29 :wink:
