HELP! Convert this identity to one using sine terms only !
1-2 cos^2 r=
A. -1-sin^2r
B. 2sin^2r-1
C. 1-2sin^2t

Please explain!

Answer:

option B is correct.

[tex]2\sin^2r - 1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression: [tex]1-2\cos^2r[/tex]                      ......[1]

Using trigonometric identities:

[tex]\sin^2r+ \cos^2r = 1[/tex]

We can rearrange this as;

[tex]\cos^2r = 1-\sin^2r[/tex]      ......[2]

Substitute equation [2] into [1] we get;

[tex]1-2(1-\sin^2r)[/tex]

Using distributive property:  [tex]a\cdot (b+c) = a \cdot b + a\cdot c[/tex]

[tex]1- 2 +2sin^2r[/tex]

or

[tex]-1+2\sin^2r[/tex]

therefore, the given expression in terms of sine terms is; [tex]2\sin^2r-1[/tex]
