Question 281

Multiple Choice

Use an identity to write the expression as a single trigonometric function or as a single number.
-Use the exact value cos72=514\cos 72 ^ { \circ } = \frac { \sqrt { 5 } - 1 } { 4 } and identities to find the exact value of sin72\sin 72 ^ { \circ } .


A) (1025) (5+35) 40\frac { ( \sqrt { 10 - 2 \sqrt { 5 } } ) ( 5 + 3 \sqrt { 5 } ) } { 40 }
B) (1025) (51) 4\frac { ( \sqrt { 10 - 2 \sqrt { 5 } } ) ( \sqrt { 5 } - 1 ) } { 4 }
C) 10+254\frac { \sqrt { 10 + 2 \sqrt { 5 } } } { 4 }
D) 10+58\frac { \sqrt { 10 + \sqrt { 5 } } } { 8 }
