Verify the identity.sin(x + y) cos(x - y) = sin x cos x + cos y sin y

What will be an ideal response?


sin(x + y) cos(x - y) = [sin x cos y + cos x sin y][cos x cos y + sin x sin y]
 = sin x cos x cos2 y + cos y sin y sin2 x + sin y cos y cos2 x + cos x sin x sin2 y
  = sin x cos x(cos2 y + sin2 y) + cos y sin y(sin2 x + cos2 x)
 = sin x cos x + cos y sin y
