Sin(2W) = 2SIn(W)Cos(W)

You need to get this imprinted on your brain!

sin(2A)2sinAcosAsin(2A) \equiv 2sinAcosA

This is an IDENTITY - this means it is valid whatever you stick in place of A.
So, A = B/2 gives
sinB = 2sin(B/2)cos(B/2)
A = 2C gives
sin(4C) = 2sin(2C)cos(2C)
A = TaylorSwift gives
sin(2TaylorSwift) =2sin(TaylorSwift)cos(TaylorSwift)

etc etc :smile:
