III. Prove the following identities. There can be many solutions. Here are some suggestions:
1. For #1 4, converting to sin and cos will work.
2. For #5 6, you may use double-angle identities.

3. For #7 9, you may use product-to-sum and sum-toproduct identities.

only

(We answered this in class and we got x =

but we should have shown that x =

3
2

is

an extraneous root and so, it is not a solution.)
