Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If sin²A + cos²A = 1, what is the value of sin²A when cos A = 0?
  • Step 1: Start with the equation sin²A + cos²A = 1.
  • Step 2: Substitute the value of cos A into the equation. Here, we know cos A = 0.
  • Step 3: Calculate cos²A. Since cos A = 0, then cos²A = 0² = 0.
  • Step 4: Substitute cos²A back into the equation: sin²A + 0 = 1.
  • Step 5: Simplify the equation to find sin²A: sin²A = 1 - 0.
  • Step 6: Therefore, sin²A = 1.
  • Pythagorean Identity – The fundamental trigonometric identity that states sin²A + cos²A = 1.
  • Trigonometric Values – Understanding the values of sine and cosine at specific angles, particularly when cos A = 0.
