    Pre-calculus: Find the exact value of each expression?
    1. Sin 70 degrees cos 40 degrees - cos 70 degrees sin 40 degrees

    2. cos^-1

    3. Solve cos2A=0 on the interval 0 is less than or equal to A which is less than or equal to 2pi?

    4. A=35 degrees and side a=5

    5. Side a=3 and side b=1

    PLEASE SOLVE THESE HARD QUESTIONS FOR ME don't just give the answers!!

    Hint: recall the identity for sin(a-b).

    It appears you left part of the question out.

    Hint = think about under what conditions cos(x) = 0. For example, , so is one solution. There are many more.

    Presumably there is a picture that goes with these.
