Express the following as the sum or difference of sines and cosines:

2 sin 3x cos x

Sum

Solution

\[2\left( \sin 3x \right) \left( \cos x \right)\]

\[ = \sin \left( 3x + x \right) + \sin \left( 3x - x \right) \left[ \because 2\sin A cos B = \sin(A + B) + \sin(A - B) \right]\]

\[ = \sin 4x + \sin 2x\]
