i have tried for ages and just cant do it
Which one and what have you tried?
it is w=sqrt(wx^2+wy^2)

Youve got to work through and simplify the expressions. The end result (in terms of v, c or theta) is relatively simple
hi ive also been trying this, what have you got so far?

i honestle dont know but when i try submit the answer its incorrect

Not showing for me. You need to upload it to another site to share the image, then link it.

It helps to see the working but from a quick glance it looks about right. Id use the pythagorean identity on
v^2sin^2(theta)
and things should factorise / cancel. If not, upload your full working.
v^2sin^2(theta)
and things should factorise / cancel. If not, upload your full working.
i dont understand how to use it as i have v^2sin^2(theta) and a 2cvcos(theta)

sin^2 = 1 - cos^2
so ....
yeah sorry you have completely lost me i dont think i have been taught that rule and how t use it

Its just pythagoras, if youre trying to do a question with trig/algebraic simplification you should have covered it. So
sin^2(theta) + cos^2(theta) = 1
so multply through by v^2, sub for v^2sin^2(theta) and ....
I have got c^2 +v^2cos^2(theta) - 2 v c cos(theta) divided by c- vcos(theta) but can't seem to simplify any further, can anyone help where I went wrong?
what does multiply though mean ???

Factorize the numerator (and then simplify the fraction) so
c^2 - 2 c v cos(theta) + v^2cos^2(theta)
Ive reordered it.

Factorize the left hand side (and then simplify the fraction) so
c^2 - 2 v c cos(theta) + v^2cos^2(theta)
Ive reordered it.
c^2 - 2 v c cos(theta) + v^2cos^2(theta)
Ive reordered it.
so you get c-2 +vcos(theta) ?
so when simplified u end up with just c

Have you tried entering it?
