Trigonometric Identity??
I just can't figure this out. I don't think I've covered enough material to do this. Can anyone help? I've put the entire question but I am sure all i need is a little explanation and maybe the first answer and i could do the rest.
[tex] Let z = tan(\theta/2).// Show that
cos\theta = \frac{1-z^2}{1+z^2}
sin\theta = \frac{2z}{1+z^2}
\frac{d\theta}{dz} = \frac{2}{1+z^2}
[/tex]
Thanks. Sorry i tried to use latex but can't figure out spaces.
