Example 8--Page 2

We see that we already got the major part of the goal identity:

Using our compare strategy, we claim that

Let's compare what are the differences between equation (6) and equations (1) and (2). We see (1) and (2) have c, but (6) doesn't have a c. How can we get an equation from (1) and (2) which has no c. This clue tells us to make subtraction between (1) and (2) we have:

To get the angle tht_p_phi_2.gif (1119 bytes), we use the Sum to Product formulas, and get:

In the given conditions, there is one condition about both theta.gif (908 bytes) and phi.gif (942 bytes). To see the relationship between theta.gif (908 bytes) and phi.gif (942 bytes), we change around tht_n_p_2kpi.gif (1673 bytes), as follows:

6_8206.gif (2902 bytes)

Where k is an integer. So, the condition says:

6_8207.gif (2116 bytes)

Because 6_8208.gif (1550 bytes), from equation (8), we have:
