12. Transform the expression sin x 3 cos x into the form R sin x , where R , 0 are
2
constants have to be determined. Hence solve the equation sin x 3 cos x 1 .
13. Express the expression 4 cos x 3 sin x into the form R cosx , where R , 0 are constants
2
have to be determined. Hence solve the equation 4 cos x 3 sin x 2 .
