A past examination paper had the following question that I found somewhat difficult. I tried having a go at it but haven't come around with any possible double angle identities. How would one go about tackling it?
Given:
ω=sin(P+Q)+i(1−cos(P+Q))(cosP+cosQ)+i(sinP−sinQ)
To prove:
|ω|=tanP+Q2andarg(ω)=Q
A guideline on how/ which identity to use would be greatly appreciated.
To give an idea how one would start it is by;
Proof:
|ω|=√sin2(P+Q)+(1−cos(P+Q))2√(cosP+cosQ)2+(sinP−sinQ)2
I'm still unsure about the above or how the square root come about
Answer
We have
N:=sin2(P+Q)+(1−cos(P+Q))2=sin2(P+Q)+cos2(P+Q)+1−2cos(P+Q)=2(1−cos(P+Q))=2⋅2sin2P+Q2=4sin2P+Q2
and
D=cos2P+cos2Q+sin2P+sin2Q+2(cosPcosQ−sinPsinQ)=2+2(cos(P+Q))=2(1+cos(P+Q))=4cos2P+Q2
Now, |ω|=√ND=tanP+Q2
