So, my teacher assigned us this homework that already has the results, you just need to get to it, and I´m a little bit stuck in some of this exercises..
They´re about the fundamental trigonometric formulas
The screenshot is in spanish tho, but I can translate it if needed..

  1. Do not ping the Moderators, unless someone is breaking the rules.
  2. Do not ping the Helper Moderators, unless there is a conflict between helpers.
  3. Do not ping other members randomly for help.
  4. Ask your question and show the work you've done so far. If you've posted a screenshot of a question, specify which part you need help with.
  5. Wait patiently for a helper to come along.
  6. If the Helper has answered your question, remember to thank them with the Mathematics Ranks bot and close the thread with:

Feel free to nominate the person for helper of the week in #helper-nominations
If you're happy with the help you got here, and the server overall, you can contribute financially as well:

(You can also build triangles for some of these questions; namely, 3-4-5 triangles, and then calculate the trig ratios based off them.)

Thank you. I'll wait to see any attempt by @low path; if he/she still have questions with solving them.

I had to rewrite in other paper because it´s pretty difficult to understand my notebook, and it´s even worse if I try to take a photo

May you please review these issues and address?
(1.) What is sen? Is it the same as "sin (sine)"?

(2.) Work on your writings
(i.) For (c.) Is that "tan x"?

(3.) For (c.), the LHS of the 3rd line is incorrect.
How can $\cos x = \sqrt{1 - \cos x^2}$? What Trigonometric Identity/Formula is it?

(4.) For (G.), what is R?
Is it not better to define the variables that you use?
Also, what is the need for the exclamation mark? You do know that the exclamation mark represents factorials...right?

...among several other issues.

Also, for several questions on trigonometry, you can check the solution with the graphing calculator (if your professor allows the use of a graphing calculator).

Be it as it may, here are the detailed solutions.
Numbers (16.) and (17.) on:

I think I explained it well. But, if there is anything you do not understand regarding the explanations/solutions, please let me know.

Well, let´s see..
Sin and sen are the same, tan and tg are also the same, I think the issue there is because of language.
R means Result
The teacher already gived us the results, I just need to actually get there, and sorry for the exclamation mark, my bad.
And no, I don´t use the graphing calculator, I use the scientific one
And about that formula, I was trying to clear "sin", with the new formulas that I´ve been using along the exercises, I saw one of my classmates doing it, and he got the right answer, but I get stuck in the same place.

So i saw the exercises in the link that you sand me, I see, throught I don´t think the teacher wants us to use the angles, but yeah, thanks!, i´m done with my work

One last think
How do I use the "Mathematics rank bot" to thank you?
