Trignometric Expressions

The document provides solutions to trigonometric expansion problems. It begins with very short answer questions showing expansions of sin 4θ, cos 7θ, sin 7θ, and tan 7θ. It then provides short answer questions showing expansions involving cos 6θ, sin 6θ, sin 5θ, and sin 7θ cos 2θ using De Moivre's formula. The solutions utilize trigonometric identities and apply De Moivre's formula to arrive at the expansions in terms of powers of the trigonometric functions.
