Now, we will find the value of sin 18°

Let x = 18°

so, 5x = 90°

Now, we can write

2x + 3x = 90°

so 2x = 90° - 3x

Now taking sin both the sides, we get

sin2x = cos3x [as we know, sin(90°- 3x) = Cos3x ]

We know that,

Let x = 18°

so, 5x = 90°

Now, we can write

so 2x = 90° - 3x

Now taking sin both the sides, we get

sin2x = sin(90° - 3x)

sin2x = cos3x [as we know, sin(90°- 3x) = Cos3x ]

We know that,
