Sum and Difference Identities for the Cosine Function • If α and β represent the measures of two angles, then the following identities hold for all values of α and β.
Terri Cox is an electrical engineer designing a three-phase AC-generator. Three-phase generators produce three currents fo electricity at one time. They can generate more power for the amount of materials used and lead to better transmission and use of power then single-phase generators can. The three phases of the generator Ms. Cox is making are expressed as, . She must show that each phase is equal to the sum of the other two phases but opposite in sign. To do this, she will show that .
